The Elder Scrolls has a plethora of elves with their own distinctive feaures.
Between them perhaps the Dwemer are the most unique since I've barely seen a race of Elves(Dwarfs) in any other setting. Plus their fluff is awesome.

he didn't make most either. the wording of his phrase gives it away "since december". meaning at best is just a couple of threads in that period of time and none before that. there are some OPs that are given away made by other anons like when the office elves poster using them in the OP. and since when making threads gives you authority to put made up shit rules?
we were having a good cozy rundown with this fucking thread. but it seems you faggots since the major spam the other day dumping 150 fucking images over the night you're hell bent on making this thread shitty or turning it into another of your schizo generals. fucking retards can't see anything peaceful if you can't ruin it with your clique circlejerk antics.

unpopular opinion but they lead the eldar and most of the time they pop up it seems they're the last survivors of whatever group they were members of
isn't it a bit harsh to blame everything on them when they're just trying their best using fortune telling and scrying? it isn't really their fault the universe decided 'Fuck the eldar' and throws everything at them

I fully agree on both accounts. They are pretty cute.
It seems that Lodoss War still holds some notoriety (at least in japan), and Sword World RPG is getting a full english release in the next months (with crowdfunding), but it still deserves more popularity in the West.
Maybe a full adaptation of all the novels (and D&D Replays) would do the trick.

People get hung up on uniqueness when this in itself is not a virtue. I could say "yeah, well MY Elves are 10-limbed mushroom people that reproduce asexually and aren't even sentient". These would be unique, but these would not be Elves.
Having interesting mechanics instead of just "you can move 5 feet further every turn" is nice, and I do wish games made race a more impactful and integral part of characters, especially in the case of iconic ones like Elves that should feel significantly different from playing a human.
>>
>>97865827
Their evolution is pretty neat to watch, but does betray how "western" they got over the years.
I have to put "western" in scare quotes because corpatized sanitized bullshit can't really be truly western especially if you look at the very distinct look fantasy art had in the west and how it got hijacked by utter slop for profit. And that's the process you can see taking place albeit at a slower pace.

It's not the most unique, but I always enjoyed how Endless Legend did it with their Wild Walkers.
Yes, these are elves.
A 4X game, and of course the elves favorite terrain is woods, which are great for production and building stuff. Instead of making the elves the dumb hippies that would never hurt a tree, the developers did the logical thing and made these elves the builder faction. With beautiful, comfy big cities, high marble towers and their own win condition is finishing a certain wonder.
Funnily enough, they are still the most vanilla faction in the game. But builder elves are neat.

Thanks for sharing thats pretty neat. Shoutout to Sui of 'Uncle from Another World'. I wouldn't usually rec anything isekai these days but I do think its worth reading. Very funny, a bit of bittersweet romance, I like the cast a lot, and there are some very solid fight scenes. The concept has him already returned which has been pretty funny and useful as breaks between the fantasy chapters.
I don't know if I missed it or perhaps she doesn't count but it missed Sora from the Visions of Escaflowne movie. Small part but quite memorable. Definitely prefer the movie over the series as well.

We don't talk about mechanics in these haggard gooner-core image dump threads.
The Dark Eye has some neat elves. They are all automatically mages (not necessarily good at it) and also have the automatic advantage of being able to sing elfen songs. Those songs sound like they are singing with a second voice.
Other advantages and disadvantages they should have include: not needing to sleep, having an incredible sensible nose, and not being able to hold their liquor. At the same time, they can be immune to poisons and diseases, or have annoying little elemental creatures trying to fuck with them.

Ehh personally I headcanoned my drow to have very mutable skin. The radiation of the underdark is what caused their skin to turn black. If they move to the surface and stay for a long period of time then the sun bleaches their skin into a shade of grey. If they stay on the surface but primarily come out at night then the moon's radiation turns their skin to a blue to purple hue.

I choose to interpret Elistreean drow as deeply conscious and spiritual people that both love naked sword dancing in the moonlight and merciless destruction of evil.
I think it's important to remember that they are drow so it makes no sense for them to be lame moderates. They should be utterly convinced that any and all means are acceptable, if not encouraged, to remove evil

He was cloning them and then slowly torturing/killing each and every single one of them. It's just that some of them escaped and we were finding dead Ferri all over Avernus and we never really figured out why.

Not necessarily a fan of weird magical aging effects or immortal coils.
What's interesting to me is elves wanting to create things that make them remember who they were so that in hundreds of years, they don't lose sight of themselves and morph into a different personality. Like performing great deeds that are transformed into songs and plays, and that way, the elf remembers who they once were.
Not even in an artificial "lol my elves have anmesia every hundreds of years". It's natural for people to lose sight of themselves.

Complete immortality a la Tolkien is cool and sets Elves apart from all the other races, but you basically have to blatantly rip off Tolkien and/or have an equally robust worldbuilding system, which is extremely difficult. The more common "Elves aren't immortal but they can live hundreds or potentially thousands of years" is still a lot more world-changing than a lot of people realize, but it's still a lot easier to work around.
The thing with Elves being completely/mostly hairless save for their head is kinda dumb, though, very old Elven men having mustaches/beards to a small extent is cool

Some earlier D&D editions referenced their darker skin while the actual art made them lighter in skin color, thereby making them visually incongruent with the source text. I've heard it explained that for many TTRPGs this move to a purple-ish skin color was due to the difficulty of drawing lines and detail with black/charcoal skin colors.

non-noldor answer: yes of course, she would do that to save a handful of Eldar souls from Slaanesh..She wouldn't be happy, but it's a sacrifice she is gladly willing to make to save countless Craftworld kin. Maybe she even becomes happy with the arangement itself if the human is nice, if not - the human will be around for like 1/15th of her life, assuming you don't extend his lifespan via rejuvenants or Eldar tech/psychic powers

False equivalence tbf, Eldar don't really see humans as literal animals just subhuman barbarians that are still sapient, like a extreme racist would see what he deems a lesser race. There are scenes were Eldar get sad over killing humans, the Imperium is much more racist towards Xenos than any Xenos are towards them. Eldar and humans even lived together on some planets (but Emps had them killed during Crusade)

Reminder that every Eldar x Human couple or implied pairing in 40K is Eldar male x human female.
Reminder that even in the power fantasy RPGs such as Rogue Trader or Dark Heresy Eldar x Human subhumans will get crushed by GW's mighty boot. Human men will never have sex with Eldar women, they won't even get to touch them. Meanwhile Eldar men will empty their balls in human bitches. You will watch how the masses of human women lust for superior Eldar cock and take miles of it, while the Eldar stacey reminds you what a pathetic subhuman you are too disgusting to touch. Watching Marazhai's art number eclipse the Emperor's within a year of the game's release.
Reminder that Eldar men are superior to human """men""" in every single way and if they were real human women would slaughter millions of human men to be with one.
Reminder that an Eldar woman will never fuck you, would rather flay herself alive than touch you and that you will always be a subhuman.

Anon...
I'm going to let your obviously trolling self in on a little secret: Canon 40k exists to sell space marines to 8-year old boys, and said canon will shift and change to appeal to the tastes of those boys.
As arguments go, this crap about bulls and cucks is and similar such nonsense is honestly equivalent to that guy who thought that human male, elf female pairings were the equivalent of blacked shitposting.

I hope Games Workshop brings back half-eldar, but only for Eldar male x Human female. Reason being Eldar sperm is strong and can fertilize human women normally. Meanwhile human males can't because their sperm is too weak and can't keep up with the female Eldar's long repeated fertilization peroid.

You know what's fun with these Lodoss War-fags? Neither Parn nor Ashram produced a child. Yet, there is a half-elf character that they sure as fuck never mention. Her father was an unknown elf
Contrary to HFY-shitposting, it's actually really rare for male human and female elf pairings to produce lots of children in fiction. Maybe there is something to this idea.
Or female elves are the problem.

That's nice, I guess, but: James doesn't care about 40k either, this entire board, like every board on 4chan, is people throwing their subjective ideas/preferences around as though they were objectively factual or the best, there's nothing wrong with waifuism, and nothing I for one have posted in this thread is pornographic.

And I have no reason to care about what you think nasty behavior is, nor do I care if I'm being "disrespectful" by your own personal subjective standards and the idea that you can be disrespectful to a bunch of fictional characters is fundamentally absurd.

It turns sour when it becomes an attempt at a statement over another anons thing, from the perspective of their own thing. When Imperiumfags scream about how all eldar women lust over human men, then it's not just a subjective idea about their own dudes, but about someone's else dudes as well that they don't share (either due to their own preferences or purely because they stick to the lore).
>that you can be disrespectful to a bunch of fictional characters
That's not what I said. You can respect a topic, including fictional characters for what they do in fiction. If you think nobody ever respects fictional characters or races, then you never engaged in a discussion of such race outside of the porn boards. People do respect, love, admire and be inspired by fictional things.

I just remembered some random lore bit which states eldar wear spikey armor because they didn't have enough space to hang/impale their victims so they're just like wearing people jewelry
so, all the spikes you see everywhere, they're just like nails in walls or shelves for impaling people on
those are a lot of spikes
>>

>>97875263

Seems useful for shock value purposes, but I remember from the old FFG 40k RPG books that those spikes were coated in poison, IIRC. Which would be more useful in my opinion, since I can't imagine Deldar sticking around long enough for intimidation to matter. They mostly do slave raids against soft targets, as I understand it.

I used to go and record bigger LARP events in my country since they were a premium source of reference images for my art. Once there was an edgy guy with a spiky neck armor just like that DEldar and no helmet. He tripped in a mass brawl and fell on his back and the spikes on his armor almost pierced the back of his head. In short, he almost stabbed his own cerebellum. He had to be rushed to a hospital because he wasn't waking up. What a good lesson for everyone why being an edgy 40k enjoyer is literal bad for you besides getting zero bitches.

all eldar are also born psykers, the deldar just killed off the more talented trueborn psykers and stopped using their powers which is why they don't have psykers

Male elf x human female is certainly not as popular as that anon makes it out to be, especially when we start counting all the churned out isekai with male self-insert MC obligatory elf harem member.
But, there is also a whole lot of female-oriented fantasy literature that the common anon doesn't really know about.From looking through chatbot AIs, I know that handsome male dark elf seems to indeed be popular
My personal take would be that male human x female elf is more common, but in actual traditional games lore, it's a lot more balanced out, and there is a lot more male elf x female human that most anons don't know about.

To be fair, in Tolkein's world, the Elves view immortality as being a curse. Whether or not we agree with that perspective is one thing, but that is generally speaking how elves in the LOTR setting view being immortal. They call the mortality humans have The Gift of Men for a reason.

That's believable to me, but all I've ever seen are third-hand sources.
>>I think they might not want fem Eldar or SoB seen as the "designated waifus" by coomer parts of fanbase any further so they stepped in.
The SoB? Maybe, but if they wanted to stop the Eldar romance they would have stopped it completely, not just make it strictly non-physical.
Also stopping the coomer parts of the fanbase is absolutely impossible, there's fucking Thomas the Tank Engine rule34 for example, porn literally cannot be stopped. So if James did do it for that reason, he's fucking stupid.
>>
>>97876835
Well she had a romance that was non-physical, but it's odd to me that it seems like they're fine with male eldar doing it. Marazhai gets a pass since Drukhari are degends, but Laarthyr is a corsair, it is not confirmed he is romancable, but some of the datamined dialogue hints at it slightly.
>>
>>97876835
Except Yrliet is literally there in that role, and if James wanted to stop that, he would have stopped it completely, he wouldn't have just said "platonic only" if the goal was to stop the coomers. Why? Well there's a Yrliet sex mod up on the nexus, for example. There's all sorts of fanart of Yrliet getting "non platonic" with the Rogue Trader on the various r34 boards and various boorus too.

Anon, you miss point of what I'm saying, it doesn't matter if it's non-canon. Yrliet being available as a romance option AT ALL is enough to get the coomers going with the fanart and the mods and whatnot. So, and I am assuming that James is smart enough to understand this, to be fair, I cannot buy that GW wanted to discourage an Eldar romance. I think nature of the Yrliet's relationship with the Rogue Trader is due to Owlcat first and foremost.

Unironically based from GW if true. Human x Eldar romance shit is pure cancer and does not fit tonally or lorewise at all into 40k. It only serves to diminish the Eldar and the only people that clamor for that garbage are secondary coomers that just want their race mixing fetish to validated in 40k.
>>
>>97876963
you know the difference between eldar and humans isn't just purely comsmetical?
their biology is different, their souls are different
just on top of my head: all eldar are born psykers, they're lanky and can't get fat
they have an extra pair of ribs covering their stomach
they don't have teeth like humans do, and some more
>>
>>97876946
You know, I wouldn't even mind the thing with Yrliet so much if she didn't object to you having another partner in addition to her. It evened seemed like it was going that way for a bit in chapter two, but then after the escape from Commorragh in chapter three she's just as jealous as the other romance options are.
I mean for fuck's sake, If the Rogue Trader is going for an heir for his dynasty with one of the two women who can conceivably conceive, and Yrliet said that it was perfectly natural that he would seek out romantic/sexual companionship with his own species, this sudden outbreak of jealousy makes little sense.
>>97876963
See above friend, she is a romance option, she's just autistic about it and not in the fun way.
>>97876964
First, 0/10 trolling. Secondly, see above. Yrliet is absolutely a romance option and odds are that James did nothing to discourage it. Owlcat's just bad at writing at least some of the time.

I'm not trolling, I'm completely genuine. Human x eldar romance is not fitting to 40k at all, it goes completely against the lore of the eldar, and only serves to diminish them, and from the multitude of interactions with the people that want that garbage in 40k, I have zero doubt in my conclusion that their main reason for the people clamoring for that shit is that it is a fetish of theirs. Like one such freak itt has explained, they literally don't give a fuck about the setting of 40k or the lore of the eldar, to them it is just fetishistic self indulgence.
The eldar are superhuman aliens, that have no kinship with humanity. Romance between humans and the eldar only serves to diminish the Eldar. GW was in the right to rip out the notion of human and eldar romance let alone the retarded nonsense of half eldar from 40k.

>>
>>97877037
>GW was in the right to rip out the notion of human and eldar romance
No, Yrliet is romancable, but she doesn't have sex nor kiss, just soulmelds with the human rogue trader. They let romancable male Eldar be a thing with full on sex in the same game. Marazhai dark eldar and apparently the corsair in dark heresy will also be an option.
>>
>>97877018
What a complete non sequitor. There is nothing obnoxious in GW refusing to give into the demented waifubait/racemixing fantasies of the people that want human x eldar romance to be a thing.
If anything, the people that demand that shit to be a thing are being obnoxious. They have no respect for the lore of the setting.

In 40k? Definitely.

Dungeon Meshi:
- when other humans get elfinized by the shapechanger fungus they turn into shoujo manga characters
- the working clothes for the Canaries looks like goldleaf leaves that are magically kevlar vests
- non-elf humans have a hard time telling males from females
- their head of state is an obsidian statue of a woman but afawk it's just skin-deep
- there is only one elf nation
- their wealth and technology makes them mages or might-as-well-be
- other humans tell them off but it's like Venezuela telling USA where to shove it; except dwarfs but they're not short-lived
- elf nation doesn't cultivate their neighbours they just police them to make sure there's no threats to elf superiourity
Frieren:
- Frieren and Serie are brats. Kraft could be a well-behaved 20s that happens to be in his 1000s
- We've seen three elfs: Kraft is easy on the eyes, but the other two women are loli as fuck
- Frieren spent the iron age picking mushrooms
- Himmel would've tapped that, but he didn't
- every elf has a "culture" of being a hermit / vagabond
- they're still mortal, but no interest in offspring
- Frieren gets schooled by a human mage; Serie gets shown up by a human mage; Kraft abides by a human church
- Fern pwned Frieren, technically
- Serie deigns to gift single spells, Frieren shared her notes on demon magic after Himmel dragged her ass out to fight demons

The craftworld Eldar generally view Dark Eldar more favorably than they view humans. There is no same sort of blood feud between the Dark Eldar and the Craftworlders like there is with their fantasy counterparts. To the Craftworlders and to the Dark Eldar as well to an extent the primary matter is that their cousins are still Eldar first and foremost. There is actually some level of cultural crossover/links between the Dark Eldar and the Craftworlders via Corsairs, Pathfinders and Harlequins as well.
Simply put, the Eldar regardless of their faction/culture are still race supremacists, and to them, even their wayward cousins, are more valuable than mon'keigh are.

Right, the real hard and serious Eldar lore of every avatar of Khaine getting it's ass whooped by a stiff breeze.
Of the Eldar stellar Empire that was so super awesome during the Dark Age that nobody knows anything about it apart from how they fucked it up.
And their biology being 'mammal, complete with titties, pussy and womb' but somehow 'comprehensibly alien' but specifically only in ways that don't actually biologically work.
And Yvraine doing more for the Imperium by waifubaiting Girllyman then the whole Ynnari cult does for anything at all.
What are the names for the Deldar arsenal again?
>>
>>97877149
Yrliet romance hardly even counts as one given that it is more like some sort of platonic soulmate type of shit with no physical intimacy or sexual element at all, whereas like I said earlier, with Marazhai, Dark Eldar are sicko perverts so fucking a human is basically vanilla for them in terms of sick shit they indulge in.

The dungeons in Dungeon Meshi were created both by ancient elves and dwarves. Though given how races work in that setting and what is implied to have happened,all the races in Dungeon Meshi stem from some ancient orinator race from which the different races were spurred from via the magic fo the deamon it's ability to grant wishes. As in, some people wished to be longer lived, and more magically atuned, and thus the deamo reshaped them in such ways and so on.

They seem to leave others alone. The reason they interven in the manga is because mayflies are AGAIN trying ignorantly to destroy the world. They are pretty chill/cooperative (mostly/ultimately) given what's the stakes.
Dungeon Meshi is a pretty well made manga and author takes worldbuilding seriously. Has some game-derivativeness at the start (probably helped getting the publishing contract) but she worked hard to distance it from the slop territory that usually entails and make it a proper "literature".
