Elf (Tiberium Rising Supplement)

Also see the elf creature listing.

Summary

Elves are Vasuda's longest lived race, and many have time for higher pursuits, such as magic and history. While many are content to accept the Church's teaching that all was chaos prior to Saint Cuthbert, some elves are convinced that something is amiss with the lack of any type of record. To this end, elven mages have attempted to use magic to pierce the vale of time prior to -13 KTR (the beginning of recorded elven histories), though to no avail.

Relations

Elves are almost as reclusive as dwarves, preferring to create villages hidden amongst to trees. Indeed, there are likely several clans of elves that have never been found, lurking deep in the Califon and Brocton forests. However, more academic elves must mingle with others in order to learn more about the history and magic they study, and can often be found studying in Leningrad or Cambridge. Elves generally trust halflings, since they deal with them more often than any other race, as halflings mediate most trades. Elves work passably well with dwarves, though this is likely because the species give each other a wide berth. Elves never work with orcs, regarding them as uncultured brutes

Combined with the short lifespan of humans, their willing separation from nature, and their insistence on forming large nations (a concept anathema to most elves), many elves avoid humans. Many elven scholars distrust the Knights' Templar's record of history, and a few are convinced that humans have something to do with the lost history of Vasuda. Many humans attempt to bridge the divide between the two races, to varying degrees of success. Some elves find the ever-impending demise of humans seems to spur them to untold heights of innovation, and admire humans' will to risk their lives for esoteric beliefs.

Tiberium

Elven reliance on magic guaranteed that Tiberium would be regarded as an anathema. Certain clans of elves are willing to stifle their distrust of humanity to aid the Church's efforts to remove Tiberium, and many scholars joined the Empire of Lenin in study of the crystal. Elves were the hardest hit by mutation, since their weak constitution made them more likely to die in early stages of poisoning.

gollark: We already ran into netsplits or something after one of the two servers went down. This is very IRC.

gollark: If you use tty0.xyz, which doesn't support it at all, or force no SSL, it should work.

gollark: You can also try the other server, tty0.xyz.

gollark: It works in hexchat and irssi (you may need to somehow get it to not use SSL, since it's up but not working properly?).
