3, high, wood and dark elves and variants based on these stereotypes.

2. Dirty hippies, and psychotic assholes on magidrugs.

>see pic
>I understood that reference.png

As many as humans have.

1d20 or 3d6 depending on how many you want at minimun.

Elves that fool /co/.

Two.

1: Mostly-mortal normal elves, probably a bit hoity-toity about their magical and spiritual abilities and culture.

2: An infinite variety of insane fey, with endless factions and bizarre subspecies.

>visiting cr/a/p
>ever
nah. Thank you tho.

why are her ears so high in relation to her face?

To fool /co/ into thinking she's one of their catgirls.
She's from a pretty bad animated short called The Summoning and /co/ has made it their flavor of the week waifu. And then they drew porn of her. And then it turned out she's underage and not even furry.

1, dead.

I have a rather disconcerting theory about elves... They're skinny and gaunt, they don't sleep, and they take about 100 years, give or take, to start doing anything of note.

An average human lives just under 100 years... Their skeletons are comparably skinny and gaunt... And naturally, you never see a sleeping skeleton, that would be silly!

Elves are re-animated human skeletons, clad in false flesh. Not being truly alive, they survive for centuries.

I generally prefer 2-3 flavors based on elven history and numerous specific flavors based on subdivisions of these major factions

you mean the literal manlet elves that have a society run like a backstabbing matriarchal north Korea, by a Chaotic evil god that forces them to be lawfull evil while having a good aligned male champion.

The number of flavors of other races.

Personally, I prefer my elves Neapolitan, but then you usually wind up with an entire race of unplayed strawberry elves.

Look at the pic, he doesn't care about traditional games.

>I prefer my elves Neapolitan
What do you mean by this?

I want a lewd elf lady to hit on me!

>wake up
>elf threads still exist

The most I can tolerate is two: high and wood. High elves being the civilized and decadent ones, and wood elves being the reclusive, down-to-earth woodsy ones. Any more than that is completely unnecessary and steps on the toes of too many other races.

Elves are a big part of traditional games, it's the anime fags and those that use them for shitposting that need to fuck off.

The only flavor of elf that's acceptable is one that's not a smug cunt like 99% of elves in fantasy fiction. Also, they shouldn't be depicted as otherworld beauties but rather just another type of person with more waifish features. Bonus points for not being a know-it-all and actually being helpful to their allies.

So basically just Marcille.

I'll take anime elfs over more "elf slave. wat do?" bullshit.

...

So... completely non elf-like so that they don't offend your little snowflake sensibilities.

False dilemma.

how many flavors of human is acceptable?

What can I say in this thread that I din't already say in this one?

>flavours of elves...
Depends on both the availability of herbs and spices, as well as the culinary traditions within the setting.

There's really no reason to have more than one, even if you want the standard high, dark and wood elves there's no reason they can't all be different cultures of the same race.

The origins of elves.

>elves
>acceptable

The ultimate ruse

I’m with the emperor on this one

secretly one flavor with multiple different creeds inside it, you know warhammer

None.

I only like the long eared nature people version of 'em

Good traditional games.

I've got Viking Elves, Fey Elves, Sea Elves, and Dark Elves.

Fap before posting, god damn.

>Half Elf
>High Elf
>Wood Elf
>Dark Elf (Drow)

The only time a Veeky Forums thread can ever take elves seriously is whenever you bring up Tolkien, and that comes with its own baggage of Tolkien autism.

Fat-ears should have thought of that before fucking up.

Three maximum types, with subtypes allowed.

>high elves
>wood elves

only one: Chocolate

I fap while posting wink wink

When it comes to elves quality matters way more than quantity.

High, low/dark, and wood

Oh, that looks sweet

Slave elves.

Only kind.

Designated Elf Flavor Chart:

High Elf: Vanilla
Wood Elf: Chocolate
Dark Elf: Dark Chocolate
Drow: Black Licorice
Snow Elf: Coconut creme
Amazon Elf: Coffee
Pixie / Gnome: Strawberry short cake
Christmas Elf: Peppermint

Please contribute to chart if able.

Shit Elf: take a wild guess

I feel like there must be a more elegant solution than having two separate elf races both be chocolate

>Implying milk chocolate is anything like delicious dark chocolate.

So Wood Elves and Dark Elves mix very well with every other flavor?

Any flavour as long as it's extra chunky

Literally as many as you can manage. NOT as many as you want. If you put them in, they should be different enough to be immediately distinct, even before they speak or act (be that in their mannerisms or appearance), and should require different approaches. If you have two Golden Elf Races, the angry warlike Dawn Elves with big ass golden armor, and the demure kindly Dusk Elves who all look like Santa went on a diet and got a tan, then you can use them both.

There are exactly three.

tease, tsun, and vanilla?

Just one. Different cultures of the same race are acceptable, but the stats are the same.

I took out all the evil opposite underdark races from my world.

Blood Elf: Strawberry

Wild Elf: Banana Flavor
Wild Elves come in High Elf, Wood Elf, Snow Elf or Amazon Elf mixes

time to stop waking up

Shh, no tears. Only dreams now.

Do you remember that moment Veeky Forums? When you first found out about elves? What was it like? Were you enchanted by how amazing, fascinating, resplendant and beautiful they were? Did you immediately vouch that for as long as you lived, you wanted to be like them as much as possible, and every fantasy you could ever conceive was that of being these perfect beings that could never err and for whom any harm or inconvenience is in itself an atrocity?
Did you ever recover from this stupor, realising that being born a supreme and infallible immortal being is far less admirable than achieving even the meekest survival through struggle and adversity in a world that ultimately owes you nothing? Did you ever look around at the people you'd decided to call your kin and realise what a bunch of collossal faggots they were?
Or are you yet innocent and pure, your reaction is and has always been, "Huh, thin people with pointy ears that are good with bows and nature, ok then?"

Void Elf: No flavor

>realising that being born a supreme and infallible immortal being
how does it feel to know you were an incorrect faggot from the get go?

here's your (you)

Could Drow have transparent skin like cave-dwelling organisms in real life? Would that be an acceptable spin on them for a setting?

3

wood, high, dark

/thread

>transparent skin
What's the purpose of this mutation?

>threading your own post

In my settings, no more than 3, and the third will be super rare.
To be honest it's best left to one flavor.
I hate all the different flavors of elf.
Grape, vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, basic, dark, mountain dew, Sprite, cola, extra white, snow, beef flavor, and eft.

That's a thing you don't often see, elemental elves, so lightning elves, shadow elves, flames elves.

My first exposure was the Christmas elf. To this day all my elves wear bright elaborate clothes with many skilled in woodcraft.

I was exposed to tolkein elves as a child as a bedtime story, around the same time as christmas elves.

So, naturally, for most of my childhood I thought santa had elves crafting boats like goddamn silmarils.

er, this goes to

...

...

Ideally there are zero types of elves. The presence of demihuman "races" to a game rarely adds anything particularly interesting to the situation.

That's pretty badass when you think about it

It's more likely if you are a pretty girl

What about fat elves who can't stop eating french fries?

>children of the world being handed silmarils
>but only if they're good
>if you're naughty, the elf of mind control and orc slaughter will besiege your town with his army of converted orcs.

Or dark elves with delicious badonkadonk
