What about the slender grace of the elves?

The precision of their weapons and words.

The elegant way of their tongue?

The aesthetic of their cities?

Feist's World of Midkemia actually had 4 flavors of elves. The Mad Elves of his milieu run a close second.

[Add on edit]Whoops, just remembered once Novindus came into the stories in a big way, a fifth flavor was introduced.

Hm. Alright. Which do you like more?

And why do you know SO MUCH?

Also I believe I read somewhere once that elves were based of the Jotund (from norse mythology). Is that true or is my brain making things up? Wait no that's frost giants. I think. Werent the elves based off something?
