Elves are one of the 4 Elder Races of Erdreja, created by the dragons in an attempt to hatch the unborn egg (Erdreja). Since the dragons abandoned their attempts, the Elves have made their own way, not always successfully. Elves are few and far between in the Underdark, because of the events of the Sundering and the transformation living in the Underdark wrought on those that did. Playing an Elf would require a reason for migrating into the Underdark and not being killed by the Drow (or a background as to why your ancestors weren’t transformed into Drow in this case please mail the plot team This email address is being protected from spambots.
