Silly take: because human "adaptability" also extends to interspecies compatibility.
Dragons are apex sexual predators, humans are apex breeders.
That's why most half-breeds originate from a human's tryst with some other race.

Elves in Warhammer Fantasy are incredibly racist to the point of seeing other elves as not even being people.
So no, a cute dragon girl is actually a grotesque inferior being unlike the majestic dragons of Ulthuan, meanwhile a human guy will happily sire 20+ shugengan before his body gives out since she's heavenly jade-like beauty to him.

Elves as a progressively more mystical, ancient part magic race of esoteric nobility will never not be utter kino.

>Exemplified and magnified ideals like chivalry, nobility, etiquette, science and environmentalism.
>But equally, they can exemplify all the worst of humanity, with treachery, lust, violence, cosmopolitan living, religious zealotry, scorn for lesser races, or a simple jadedness to life (ie Drow, Dark Elves or Dark Eldar.)
>Both highly complex and near irrational series of laws and conventions they'll uphold often on pain of death. But they also kinda make sense in the basic way of a children's storybook about ancient knights.
>Have ages of knowledge to themselves, and are often the top of their craft, or the inventors of it in the world. Still willing to sacrifice their own lives at nearly the drop of a hat, either for a personal passion, or because they believe it is right and noble of them to make that sacrifice for the races they see as younger.

Then you can get into esoterica.
>Since they're at least half magic, their anatomy only exists in a recognizable way, when observed in detail, making them so swift and strong for their size.
>They can't die of old age. But they can change their nature by a shift in culture, in powers, in influence or simply by moving locations, and Ship-of-Theseus themselves into an entirely new identity, functionally 'dying'.
>Elves are so magically proficient, because a lot of what they are and do, is magical. When an Elf throws a spear, it travels in a straight line, regardless of gravity or wind.
>While the common appearance of an Elf is that of a tall, beautiful, fair human, this is due to common perception of their kind. An Elf may change in physical appearance in accord with their nature and their perception. It is unclear if elvish clothing or armour is technically a part of themselves, magically manifested, or not.

I love Dwarves, but Elves are in a state of kino awesomeness all of their own.

Both bear a similar resemblance to the fantasy concept of a nobility or knightly class, with Vampires adopting the more negative aspects (drinks the blood of honest hardworking men, women and children to sustain itself, undying, very powerful in combat, but arrogant), and elves adopting the more positive (long-lived, educated, wise, compassionate, noble, and willing to defend those beneath them).

No fairly related. Just not specific. Picrel was just an epic battle scene I found on google.

Eldar do differ a lot between craftworlds, going between "we are diminished and hunted, but we must preserve the tapestry of the galaxy from the may dark fates" to "gas all the lesser races now", but in almost all semi-recent depictions they've tended toward the former.

That's just shit writing though, because Astartes occupy the same rough position of 'fantasy knight race', except they're represented too much, without the flaws that Eldar don't have.

I want to become a BL author, just to write stories where Eldar engage with Astartes as rough equals in combat capacity.
Marines are strong and tough and have a persistently aggressive tempo. But the average marine is not a master swordsman, and the Eldar are a lot faster, should be smarter (as they're not trained by hypnosis), and are a lot more flexible.

As porn brain-y and Skub as it may seem, I'm actually something of a supporter of the bimbofication of elves in kitchen sink games.

>1. It 'balances them.
Tolkienian Elves, being fantasy nobility, are fucking OP as a race concept. If they're going to be longer-lived, wiser, smarter and more beautiful, making them smaller, lither and more delicate is a fantastic, and fitting, drawback to the race. Otherwise you get something like DnD, where they kinda are Tolkein elves, but also kinda aren't in any respect, and that's hackish.

>2. It kinda makes sense in a multicultual society.
Every other race is typically much shorter lived, with physical and mental maturity reached by 20.
If Elves are physically matured by 20, but only considered mentally mature by 100, then you've arguably got something of a learning or developmental disability (if adult elves aren't hyper-wise genius').
Regardless however, a dynamic society changes its conventions and natures fast, and elves may not keep up as well given (proportionally in respect to their own existence) much less time to learn.
Hence, your modern, cosmopolitan elf, especially the adolescent ones under 100, may come across as airheaded, unaware or naive, and depend more on his or her looks and charms to get through new and unfamiliar social situations, as they are known for being especially beautiful.

This can actually make a good contrast between the more old-school isolationist Elves, who raise their children up in the old, classical ways away from shorter lived races, and the more urban elves who enjoy more social contacts, at the loss of social prestige as they come across as airheaded and over-dependent on looks.

Unless any regular human pairings can breed Primarchs by themselves, without Chaos fuckery, then I don’t consider Primarchs “human”.

It's a classically elven way to pass the time, complaining about the current state of affairs.

I posted lewds. There was also a lovely discussion on the nature of dwarven women, and how bearders are to be belittled and shamed.

>Elf mary sue is somewhat cordial to Primarch
>Both know their alliance was only one of convivence and do not trust each other
>somebody jokes about this being romantic somehow (they've never talked to a woman before)
>like so many 40k memes, retards repeat it until they genuinely think it is true
How do I reconcile my interest in space elves with my disgust for the 40k fandom at large?
