	Elves
		Elves is often used as a general term for fairies especially in the XIXth anglo-saxon litterature.
		In modern descriptions, elves are either light or dark, the light elves having starlike eyes, faces brighter than the sun, and golden-colored hair; the dark elves are pitch fl and have sometimes fluorescent eyes, this quality being indicative of their dealing with fl magic.
		During the course of time elves moved to other places in the world and in many tribes their spiritual shape was lost completely and elves changed to beings consisting of blood and flesh.

	Elf - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		As such, elves appear similar to the animistic belief in spirits of nature and of the deceased, common to nearly all human religions; something that, on a side note, is true also for the Old Norse belief in fylgjur and vörðar ("follower" and "warden" spirits, respectively).
		Small wingless elves of British folklore also appear distinct thus Santa's Elves (of whom it should be noted are referred to as Gnomes also, by many in the UK rather than Elves) are called "tomte" in Swedish or "nisse" in Norwegian.
		Machine elves, a term first introduced by writer and psychedelic researcher Terrence McKenna, is used to describe the presumed other-worldly intelligent beings which subjects sometimes feel they encounter during psychedelic experiences (especially those induced by naturally-occurring tryptamines, such as DMT or psilocybin), as well as during shamanic and alien abduction experiences.

	Encyclopedia of Arda: Elves
		Concerned for the safety of the Elves in Middle-earth, which was at that time under the control of Melkor, the Valar left Valinor and made war against the Dark Lord: this was the Battle of the Powers, which saw Melkor taken as captive back to Valinor.
		While the Two Trees still gave light to the realm of the Valar, three ages passed, and the Elves of Valinor became the wisest and noblest of all the Children of Ilúvatar.
		Elves also have far clearer sight and perception than Men; they are naturally aware of many things that are hidden from the Younger Children, but these gifts are not without limit.

	Elf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Elves are often pictured as youthful-seeming men and women of great beauty living in forests and other natural places, underground, or in wells and springs.
		Tolkien's Elves of Middle-earth are immortal in the sense that they are not vulnerable to disease or the effects of old age.
		A hallmark of fantasy elves is also their long and pointed ears (a convention begun with a note of Tolkien's that the ears of elves were "leaf-shaped").

	THE ELVEN RACES
		A pragmatic race, elves hardly ever have strong gender lines in their societies, and either men and women can be found in most social roles, thus the actual gender of their god is not really important to them.
		Many purest amongst the elves wish to quell further degradation of their bloodlines and frown upon mixed marriages, but most admit such unions are inevitable and over time the elves will meld into the human race, hopefully the end product enjoying the best both races have to offer.
		Some elves, however, live a more settled life, but their cities and villages are usually smaller and well integrated as part of the natural landscape rather than an affront to its innate beauty.

	Elf - Gurupedia
		The elves (light elves) are often mentioned along with the Aesir, instead of the Vanir (a race of gods).
		The names Vanir and Alfar (light elves) may have been either synonymous, since the expression "Aesir and Alfar" meant "all the gods", or designating a difference in status between the major fertility gods, the Vanir, and the minor, the elves.
		Elves of Middle-earth (capitalized) are not deathless and can be killed by injury, but they are immortal insofar as they do not grow old and die of age like humans.

		School 2 (the ridiculous one): The 'dark' elves have different stats than the 'light' elves, meaning that they are two distinct races, and that every member of the 'dark elf' race is twisted and evil, and every member of the 'light elf' race is good and pure.

		School 2a: Dark Elves and Light Elves are separate descendents of the Fair Elves, one night-worshipping and one day-worshipping, amount of evil/good varies per Elves on both sides.

		Light Elves demonstrate lively shelter against misfortunes and seem to have strenuous and tireless constitution.
		They masterly wield bows and crossbows since the art of long-range combat cultivated by Dark Races is also not foreign to them… Light Elves (or simply, Elves, as we'll be calling them) are final incarnation of Ligoes who were eager to adopt the spirit of Earth Elementals dispelled all over Archea.
		It's due to this relation Elves live in harmony with nature, show endurance in travel and energy in combat in spite of outward frailness.

	ELVES
		In the Prose, or Younger, Edda, elves were classified as light elves (who were fair) and dark elves (who were darker than pitch); these classifications are roughly equivalent to the Scottish seelie court and unseelie court.
		The notable characteristics of elves were mischief and volatility.
		They were believed at various times and in various regions to cause diseases in humans and cattle, to sit upon the breast of a sleeper and give him bad dreams (the German word for nightmare is Alpdrücken, or "elf-pressure"), and to steal human children and substitute changelings (deformed or weak elf or fairy children).

		Although the elves appear to spread faster than light, analysis of the physics behind elves demonstrates that no particles actually move that fast, so Einsteinian relativity is not violated.

		Of course, technically we don't know what they are, but I call them the "Mountain Light Elves." And while they may or may not technically be "Elves" I have no doubts that they are the nature energies which are so apparent here.
