Elves

Elves are a race akin to Humans, with ears that are more triangular, and longer life-spans. It is said they can hear other planes of reality, like the spirit realm or the afterlife. They can feel the flow of things around them and thus are usually masters at the art of redstone contraptions.

Culture, Weaponry, and Achievements
Elves are able to feel the flow of things around them. This has proved useful when they discovered Redstone, an oddly magical-yet-magnetic ore that is useful for conducting varying types of energies. They developed complex redstone machinery, such as hidden doors and staircases, and their most beloved creation, the crossbow. Archery is a pastime within Elven culture, and their most used weapon. Some bows are enhanced with redstone, firing arrows that send a magical or even electrical shock on impact.

Magic
Useful shamans and paladins, it is not rare for them to roam freshly blooded battlefields to help the dead find a new home, or old crypts to protect the living world from necromancy. Elves are common healers, priests, and exorcists. It has been recorded that only once has an Elf used magic for harm instead of health.

Physical Ability
Elves, actually, are not very adept at anything but the bow or short blade. Years of magic and tinkering has left them agile and deft, but their brutality is not great. Elven fighters often enhance their weapons with redstone and poisons. Due to their experiences with rotting bodies and undead, arrowheads and blades are often lathered in mort flesh, allowing deadly bacteria to infect the wounds of the enemy. They are very firmly grounded, and keeping their balance with no trouble. The strongest blizzards cannot push them down, and merely pass about them.

Appearance and Biology
Elves are rather pale, not really going outside unless work or need demands it. They have triangular ears that are shaped in a way that would make them hear almost as adeptly as bats. Typically, they have very smooth, young skin, due to their slow aging rates. Much like certain creatures, like the tortoise or hydra, once they sexually mature they stay frozen in an almost eternal youth. Like wine they grow more exquisite with the years passed. Long hair is almost a custom, a sign of longevity or beauty amongst women. The eldest elf-maidens often have their long hair braided and styled as to not trip over it.

Elven males on the other hand... long hair does not help combat. They keep it short as possible, while longer than a human male would.
