And then you wake up because sadly that can only exist in the land of dreams.

I'm really not a dog person (crippling cynophobia will do that to you) but I would protect Pombon with my life.

@BillsomethingDepends, really. Generic fantasy elves tend to really downplay that side of them if it's included at all, really.

@rush99999Just a random idea I've always had, really. XD But thank you.
I say we have the normal fantasy types, but make them amoral and smug.


Yeah, probably the best way to go, realy. And if we really want to go nuts, we could make those ones the high elves and then make the dark elves be the nice ones. XD But getting ahead of myself, I guess.

Don't forget carnivorous elves


Could always just move that trait onto some kind of fair folk-ish race, really. And yes, I am going to push for the fair folk because I find them rather fascinating.
Not sure what the logic behind that idea is, and don't really care for the idea because of that. ^^;

Besides, focusing on little stuff like that right now is getting a bit too ahead of ourselves, really.
Yeah, by "amoral" I mean more like... Basically like the fair folk of legend. They have a different, alien set of morals and behaviours to humans, and come off as rather eerie at best and utterly terrifying at worst.

...Hmmm, I'm bad at explaining things but they're basically the things that parents warn their children about to keep them in line. Hedonistic, sinister, stealing away children at night, luring in beautiful humans to take part in their dances and rituals, etc. etc. The kind who'll swear an eternal vendetta against an entire bloodline for one minor slight, who come off as pure and innocent as a child with all the cruelty and inability to understand that what they do is wrong that comes with it.

Just an idea, though. XD And probably the darkest thing I'm going to contribute but yeah.

@Raineh Daze no i didn't i know the difference but i also have the idea that elves have a huge connection to the grim reaper or whatever our personification of death will be (i forgot mention this idea also came from the magic the gathering which i usually always play with Green/Black Deck)


I dunno, maybe it's because I'm a huge Discworld and Sandman fangirl, but I just find it difficult to imagine an evil or amoral personification of death anymore. ^^; At most, I'd see them as neutral, just carrying out a natural process and keeping the natural order in check.
Makes way more sense than vegan elves, at the very least. XD

So do we want more than one kind of elf, and if so should we go with the traditional three types (high/wood/dark) or figure out something different?

My suggestion here is split them into at least two, with one group being "traditionalists" (ie. wood elves) and the other being less so (basically elves that don't do the magic and nature thing and focus more on the whole warrior race thing). With neither being inherently good or evil, but yeah.

...Either that or go back to the roots of elves and make them into the capricious, amoral fair folk rather than Tolkein-esque high elves but yeah. XD Hmmm.
So, um, any other opinions...? ^^;
(basicly making it just like real life or like the games)


What, you mean whoever spends the most amount of money on eBay wins? >.> <.<

Joking, of course. XD I get what you mean, and it sounds like an interesting idea if we could somehow get it to work. Might be a good idea to fudge some of the randomization in case someone actually wants to run with a certain theme but other than that, um, yeah.
@Dark LugiaUm... Is this still a thing? ^^;
I am actually kind of interested in the duel academy idea for some reason, but we'll see how things turn out. ^^;
Eh, we've already got a majority so may as well close the voting unless someone has a really strong objection.

Anyways, as for discussion... Should we start off with the generally expected fantasy races (that being humans, elves, dwarfs and orcs) or should we start off completely from scratch in that area? And if the former, anyone opposed to shaking up the template a bit?
