Elves

Elves are one of the many races that populate the world of Fallen Kingdom. They are distinguished by their height, pointed ears, and natural affinity for magic. Elves are known to live for hundreds of years, a lifespan that outlasts most other races.

The elven lands are some distance south of the Nine Kingdoms, with their capital being Mynes (Elven for "Emerald Heart"). While elves tend to stay in their homeland, there a good number of them in the Nine Kingdoms. Before the Conquering, the elves of the Nine Kingdoms lived the same as everyone else. Afterwards however, they have been oppressed by the Nelltherians much harsher than the human populace. Many were killed simply for having some connection to one of the arcane academies. Now, elves in the Nine Kingdoms face higher taxes, less food, and more beatings from the guards than the humans do.

Elves are skilled in archery, single-blade combat, and have a natural talent with magic, though trying to use any of their abilities would prompt an immediate death from the guards. Elves also have very keen vision, being able to notice things that people of other races might miss.
