Talents



A talent is sometimes something innate, but often enough it is a learned skill. The elves of Silver Meadow Holt base their survival on these traits and skills, and so it is uncommon for an elf to have NO talents at all. Unlike magic, an elf may have many talents, partially because they have such a long lifespan that they can learn and master many skills.

Having a peaceful place to live makes it also possible to explore skills that are not necessary for survival, but instead are of a more artistic bent. These are merely suggestions and certainly do not encompass all the talents elves can possess. This list is just scratching the surface, so to speak. Be creative! What are your elf's special talents?
