An Elf is a child of Faerie, a scion of Lythander. Being of Faerie, they heal more slowly than other races, but mana flows into them more quickly. They also need far less food than other races.

Every elf is taught the use of a bow, but their long lives allow them to take up any trade. They are weaker and less hardy than humans, but quicker of body and mind, and generally make more powerful spellcasters. However, they have a notoriously offhanded attitude toward their religious devotions and make poor priests.

The elf is selectable by players as their race. It has the following modifications:

• None

• Can see in dark

Like dwarves, they're at least more interesting than humans in the sense that you have innate dark vision. The extra Dex and Int may appeal if you're okay with trading HP for better speed and improved spellcasting capabilities. The low Wis score means it takes a bit more effort to use prayers and gain special prayers from your chosen deity, but prayers are still entirely usable and effective if you train well.
