Elves

Elves in Silver Meadows Holt come from the original wolfrider tribe. Cat, the daughter of Rahnee the She-Wolf, left her mother's tribe with a double-hand of followers to find a new way of life. The tribe has also picked up the occasional wanderer or two, but most of the elves currently alive are descendants of those original followers of Cat, one being an original follower herself.

Physical details
All elves have 4 fingers on each hand and 4 toes on each foot. They tend to have large eyes, and the smaller, hardier, wolfblooded elves also have large, pointed ears that usually reach to the top of their heads, while pureblooded elves usually have smaller, shorter ears.

Elves with wolf blood are shorter than their pureblooded counterparts, but Silver Meadows elves are taller than "modern" Wolfriders, due to the early time in Abodean history in which the RPG takes place. We are in a time parallel to Prey-Pacer, possibly early Two-Spear. Here is a link to the official Elfquest timeline.

Eyes color can be amber/gold/yellow, lavender or some shade of blue, green, grey, purple, brown or some mix of the above, like greyish blue.
Hair color can be black, white or some shade of blond, yellow, grey/silver, brown, red or some mix of the above. Also highlights of different color or shade in hair are possible.
Skin tone mostly depends on the elves' living environment. Due to the fact that they are forest and/or night dwellers, their skin is usually pale or slightly tanned.

Magical abilities
All elves possess elf-sending and weak magic feeling, and those with wolf blood also wolf bonding and wolf-sending to wolves specifically. ONLY wolves with elf blood can send, though all wolves (and animals) can receive sending. Other magic abilities also exist (specifics can be found in the magic page.)

Weapons and tools
Everybody has whatever weapons and tools s/he uses daily for hunting, handicraft, etc. Some own things that were passed on to her/him by another tribemate. Some ancient metal things exist within the tribe, but not everyone has some. New things can be made of stone, wood, or bone.

Clothing
New clothing is usually made of tanned leathers and furs. Winterdream can weave cloth similar to linen of some plants that grow in forest clearings. Clothes are usually made to be practical, though there are one or two who insist on wearing long dresses or skirts which are far from practical in the forest.

Age
The elves in Silver Meadows Holt range in age from 1 1/2 to 1800 years. For mortal elves these generalizations about age are true:
0-20 cub
21-100 youth
101-500 adult
501-1000 elder
1000+ ancient
Immortal elves who have peaceful lives usually live longer and for example 600 years old elf would be considered to be still young.
