Elven Species

a Lexica in fieri by Erling Feuergeist

Over millennia Elves have split into countless races and sub-species, some still very attached to ancient ways and defined by their history, yet others, especially the sub-species, still have to be studied plenty. There are most likely still dozens of sub-species that have yet to be discovered.

Angelic Elves
Also known as “Winged Elves”, “The Heavenly” or “Diamond Elves”. Sometimes known as "Crystal Elves", which causes confusion with Air Elves.

No confirmed Angelic Elf sub-species as of yet.

Night Elves
Also known as “Night People”, “Sky Elves” (just like their siblings, the Sun Elves), or “Silver Elves”.

Confirmed Night Elf sub-species:
 * Dark Elves

Sun Elves
Also known as “Sun People”, “Sky Elves” (which can be very misleading, as Night Elves are known under the same side name), “Day Elves” or “Golden Elves”.

 * Light Elves

Air Elves
Also known as “Wind Elves”, “Chaos Elves” or “Crystal Elves”.
