Welcome
Elf in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Homebrew
Elf
Elves are wild, graceful people. Their society is matriarchal and largely nomadic, venturing seasonally between groves throughout the forests and valleys of northern Thedehame in loosely organized caravans. Elvish culture emphasizes free expression and connection with nature, and many elves believe themselves to be spiritually bound to nurture the land. Elves typically avoid human settlements, to the point that some humans believe them to be merely myth.

Description:
Elves are short and lean in build, typically between 4 and 5 feet tall and weighing 60 to 120 pounds. Their pale skin has a golden evanescent glow to it, which slightly intensifies when they exhibit strong emotions. They have delicate, angular facial features and somewhat long, pointy ears. Elvish eyes are usually red, grey, or yellow.
