[quote=@vietmyke] Sure! I had a question about races though- if Elves are inherently magical, and humans are inherently non-magical, where do half elves sit? If there is a such thing as half elves. I'm toying with the idea of a sort of semi-magical pit fighter. Less shooting fireballs and more like elementally enhanced punches, short range telekinetic/elemental fists, and the like. I was also playing with the idea of a sort of arcane archer- lightning bolt arrows anyone? [/quote] I haven't finished with either of their backgrounds, honestly. I can say for almost certain a half elf/human would not be likely to happen. And if it did, the parents and the kid would be outcasts. And to elves, family and culture is everything, so to be outcast would be to basically die to who they are. Humans are...very fearful. They don't trust the other races...at all; with the possible exception to the dragons since they have proven to be protectors. But with elves, dwarves, and especially shifters, they keep themselves separate. They are led by fear of the unknown. Yes, there are a lot of good humans who see the good in everyone. What modern day people would call "humanitarian." People who go out and fight for what's right, equality, all that good stuff. (I am one of those, by the way.) They may even be the majority, but they are still fearful of the unknown and their first instinct is to shoot first, ask questions later. If a human were to have a kid with another race, they would be socially outcast, and possibly kicked out and disowned by their family. Now, if it were to happen, then yes, magic could be present. But to a very limited extent. I'm talking less than half the normal magical ability a full elf would have. And they would have a hard time controlling it for a long time. The elemental punches would not be enough to knock a person across the room, but it would give them an edge up. Does that make sense?
