Race Description: Snow Elves are considered greatly different than their cousins (Any and All elves). As stated before, they are tall standing around six and half feet as an average height. Their bodies are slender but not quite as slender as a regular Elf and not nearly as slender as a Nem. They have pale, white skin that is might be just a hue darker than the Nem and unlike the Nem, Snow Elves have white hair or very bleached hair instead of black hair. They have long pointed ears and a set of eyes that vary from a dull, faded gray to a brilliant glowing blue. The brilliant blue glow is considered a recessive trait and despite it's beauty, it is rarely seen in a Snow Elf. Another interesting observation of Snow Elf anatomy is that their bodies are always cold to the touch. This is believed to more magical in influence rather than natural means as heat is generally needed to survive cold conditions.

Speaking of cold conditions, Snow Elves prefer to live in colder, secluded climates like tall mountain ranges or extreme latitudes, close to the planet's poles. They preference has really sheltered their kind and as a result, they are very xenophobic and refuse to open their gates to other races. They also generally avoid leaving their communities so that makes the sight of them rather rare. However in recent years, some Snow Elves have ventured into larger communities, such as Karstberg, to serve as delegates for their kind. It was the first step the Snow Elves made to acknowledge the outside world. 

It is in these moments of acknowledgement that the Snow Elves really shine in their strengths. They are a brilliant race in matters of engineering, science, and magic, but nothing quite compares to their pioneered skill at combining all three effectively. Magic powered machines that serve practical and useful purposes such as weaponry, automation, and resource gathering. They are now slowly revealing that to the world but keep the secrets of that potential hidden away. Outside of their mind, they resemble much of Elves' traits, such as good marksmanship and fighting ability. Their weakness, quite obviously, is the heat and warmth. An interesting observation worth noting is that Snow Elves will naturally slow down when in a warm environment. They desire to keep cool and prevent their bodies from heating up, quite the opposite of any other being moving a lot to keep warm in a cool environment. 

The biggest driving force to their innovation was their religion. The Snow Elves worship a deity labeled as the Khal'Valhal, a genderless figure who is said to have formed the the Snow Elves, the Elves, and the Nem. The Snow Elves are believed to have been the success of Khal'Valhal while the Elves were considered a prototype and the Nem were a failed experiment and as a result, the Snow Elves treat those races appropriately. Outside of those three, the Snow Elves do not believe Khal'Valhal created the other races. The treatment of those outside the faith are mixed. Some look upon other races with scorn, due to hatred of another deity's creation and others relish in the creation of other sentient beings.
