with caution and disdain: to humans because they know full well they might fall victim to their debased carnal instincts and to other races because they don't act with the grace and elegance they are used to.

Depends on the edition and setting in question. D&D is not a setting, it's a system.
They flip flopped around with elf height. Pretty sure they were tall in 4e.

dark elves live underground though, they don't have any use for jet fighters. Unless we're talking about brown dark elves. I could see them buying anything from Russian to Chinese to French or European, probably depends on who's best at bribing

>>98042582
it would serve as input for elf characters basic stats, backgrounds, social contexts and general constraints as well as inspiration for plot and themes in addition to shaping the societies depicted and equally the human characters constraints.
The game would be skuggornas mästare, somewhat homebrewed naturally.

It's some form of socialist doctrine, but given that it's all about self reliance on fuck all and being closed off you can imagine it does not lead to much growth.
It's kinda the opposite of what the high elves over at Mihoyo do, and that's also very different to what the drow did before the dissolution of their state and I don't even know what elves I'd use to compare to Cuba and Vietnam.

One of the primary reasons I like the Eldar so much is because they are unapologetic race supremacists and at times outright genocidal towards lesser races. It is very fitting to them imo.

they wouldn't do ballet and ice dancing and gymnastics and so on to impress people but because they enjoy doing it. It just happens to look and be inhumanly graceful and beautiful

The loss of Kingdom Under Fire has been disastrous to elf fans.
>>
>>98045024
True enough, but it is epsecially fitting for the eldar given that they are nigh objectively a superior race when compared to most other races in the galaxy. Them just embracing the whole "we are better than you" attitude full on rather than being some sort of wise and understanding elder race stepping away from the world to give room for humanity is imo a refreshing take on the whole elf trope.

Curse the worstkorean urge to make everything a shitty mmo.
At least we know high elves are just dark elves with lighter skin that are somehow even more racist(but towards other elves). Even if the dark elves call themselves high elves sometimes in KoF the crusaders.

actually a cool detail that sells their unwarranted sense of superiority. Of course all elves would consider themselves the high elves

Finns aren't Scandinavian
I honestly don't know how the fuck the definition works but I think they get mad when you call them either Scandinavian or Nordic, and I guess they have a different mythology separate from Nordic countries too

We don't mind being called Nordic as it is just an overall grouping of the northern european countries.

Being called scandinavian is however wrong both geographically and ethnically. Scandis live on the scandinavian peninsula aka Norway and Sweden, plus in Iceland and Denmark. Finland is not part of that peninsula. Scandis are also Germanic peoples, whereas we Finns are not, we are Finno-Ugric and though we have mixed a lot with the germanics over the past millenia, we still are our distinct ethnic group that is clearly separate from other European ethnicities. Historically we weren't even considered to be european/white by race sciences of 19th and early 20th century. Our language is entirely different from the scandinavian languages which again, are just germanic tongues.

There is some cultural overlap over mythological stuff especially when it comes to folk tales about fair folk/fae type of entities however the ancient gods of Finland were different from the norse gods of the scandis. Scandi religions were just offshoots of germanic paganism whereas Finnic paganism was it's own thing, heavily animistic in nature with various animals like the moose and especially the bear being holy animals. The gods in that paganism, at least from what little is known of them, were sort of embodiments of various natural elements like god of the forests, lakes and the sky (skygod being the head honcho like often is in Eurasian paganism).
Christianity of course pushed that pagan stuff into the background for both us and the scandis.
