What started the ''le faggot Elf'' meme? They certainly were badass in Middle-earth

>what medium even spawned the panzy Elf stereotype
The Hobbit.
Fucking elves.

Space Marines are humans, they're "normal" men who underwent extreme procedures to become something else. Elves are just born perfect.

It's almost certainly older than D&D, actually. Tolkien was seriously salty over people illustrating Legolas as gangly right after the first edition of LotR was released. So salty, in fact, that he made sure to insert a description of how his arms were "like tree trunks" just to end it. It didn't end.

>trying to make superior House Telvanni look bad
Necromancers, vampires, slavers and wealthy cunts with a stick up their arse don't need any help looking bad.

That’s what ECL or whatever kludge you like n your system of choice is for.

ha. That's just competitive balance. Poor bookworm just didn't get it. Wanted his elves to have it all, I guess. No, they can't only be wiser, live longer, have infinitely better eyesight, be prettier, and more agile. They also have to be jacked as shit.

>They also have to be jacked as shit
No wonder dwarves are so salty about them.

Was Tolkien like /pol/ and wanted to create his own masterrace but everyone shitted and baited so much he reee'd and created marysuesterrace instead?

If you think Space Marines are still human after the amount of gene therapy they go trough you must be retarded.
Legolas isn't an elf of the light, he's Sindar. He's born in Middle Earth, and lived off the land in Mirkwood. Foresters are buff user, did you know?
I sincerely hope you die

genuinely neck yourself retard
