Elf Watching Edition Last thread: >>98745287Discuss elves.Post elves.Love elves.All elf lore, games, stories, and anything else elfy is all appreciated.Thread question: Where are elves spotted in your chosen setting?
Lewd elves.
Brown elves
>>98806314Unwholesome Elf General (featuring slop).
Macha. That's it, that's the post.
>>98806314In the setting I am making, elves aren't super rare or overly reclusive. One noble family is even elven (well, more half-elven now, though the Duke and Duchess and their super immediate family are fully elven).
>>98806420do brown elves count as dark elves?
>>98806530No. >Pitch black skinDrow>Very pale skinDark Elf>Brown skinDarkie elf.
>another pointless generalwhy?
>>98806560The mirage of content and discussion!
>>98806420That's a fucking dragon and you know it.
>>98806420FE hasn't been good since 2007.
>>98806420I don't know jack shit about FE, except that that's not an elf.
>>98806635Well anon, what campaign are you working on? Anything elf related? Playing some elf character?
A melty already? Isn't it time for bed for you?
>>98806560this isn't a general.
Have another Cute Redneck Elf doodle
what do elves think of fast attack missile boats?
>>98807222Depends on the setting.When do elves not favor the agile, nimble and hard-hitting option?
>>98807222That's definitely some crazy shit goblins and orcs would come up with. Dark elves would benefit from these as it would help them do convoy raiding but high elves could use them as very fast reaction convoy escorts
>>98807240When the enemy forces decisive battle on your ass during prolonged naval blockade
>>98807240>spoilerBro the Fire Prism is one of the hardest hitting anti-tank vehicles in the entire setting.
>>98807264You don't always have everything for every situation.There will be priorities, a military oriented on different strategies and ways of fighting.They should just go special operators on blockades, hijack the enemy ships and kill them on the decks>>98807276Did I stutter?
>>98807293Industrial warfare will always trump any small scale specialized high quality military asset (I'll use IJN vs USM in ww2 as an example)
>>98807341Cool, what's the point of discussion then? Do exactly that. Everyone does exactly the same industrial warfare, as you said.
>>98807260The Osa-class is the goblinoid small ship of choice since its solution for enemy warships is just jeeting a minibus-sized missile at it and hoping it hits.The Pegasus-class is more refined and versatile even if the basic concept is the same. Sadly ekranoplanes are fundamentally bad because they can't be used in poor weather since the air cushion effect doesn't work if waves are too high.>>98807341Peer opponents will both be industrialized, countries that are smaller and have no hope in outbuilding their opponents should go for quality over quantity in both equipment ans training, but they'll also need a really good plan and some luck to actually win.
>>98806530Nice Yings, and yes chocolate elves are dark elves, but they get really upset when you compare them to grey dark elves (and vice versa)
>>98811152What's the difference between dark elves, svartalfar, dokkalfar, and dwarves?
Marcile, Frieren and Cute Redneck Elf doing the spiderman meme
>>98806530I would make all brown ones Wood/Forest Elves and grey skinned ones Dark-Elves
>>98811807Fanon Frieren is such a divergence from Canon Frieren. Reminds me of how Canon Sakuya is a goofball and not the sour stern maid.
>>98811169>dark elvesSpooky elves that live underground, also called Drow>svartalfarweird fey dark elves, throwbacks to the original version of their race>dokkalfarwhat you call a dark elf when you're drunk>dwarvesshort beardy guys who probably made the booze that got you trying to get that dokkalfar to fugguk you.
>>98811169>dark elvesGenerally evil elves in whatever fantasy setting.>svartalfar, dokkalfarBasically synonymous in nordic myths for dwarves. Seems like different words for the same thing. We will never know.>dwarvesStunty little faggots with big noses, overly long beards, horned helmets that would usually get in the way while digging too greedily and too deeply.>>98811895Dark elf =/= drow. Drow are a very specific kind of dark elf. Not every kind of evil elf across different settings lives underground, for instance.
>>98811877Frieren doesn't really have a well defined personality. I don't think Frieren is written well..
>>98812046Dropped out of the manga some time ago, before the current massive hiatus.Over time, everything about Frierens world-building started to piss me off. And that goes especially for its elves.Which is a bit of a shame, since it's one of the few manga in which elves are allowed to be powerful. Still jerking off humans the hardest, of course.
>>98812063I don't wanna bash someone who was able to break out at 19-20 years old but Frieren really has highschooler level worldbuilding.
>>98807199It is totally a general. You even have shitty OP images like generals.
>>98813414they get really anal about this not being a general
>>98813620it seems it's just one faggot who doesn't want to call their general thread a general thread.
>>98814151Yeah, this is a general in all ways bar name.The guy who says otherwise just doesn't like the other generals, and is being wilfully obtuse to not associated himself with them.
>>98813414It's not a general and has never been a general, why does this bother you?
>>98814290what exactly makes this thread "not a general"?
>>98814302Can you read general anywhere in the OP? No? Because it's not a general. It's a reoccurring thread about elves, not a erzats discord server for permanently online retards to hold court in
>he says, posting in a general for permanently online retards to hold court in
>>98814323>recurring thread>one particular theme>when one thread reaches bump limit, a new on is created >themed template OP image>OP text is copy-paste sans TQ>TQ every thread>not a general though
>>98814352>>not a general thoughThat's right.>>98814336Sadly noldorfag hasn't killed himself yet, true
>>98814386>yet.
>>98812046>>98812063people tell me how deep the story is, I think it is pretentious and shallowIt insists upon itself>if you know German you'll also notice how ridiculous the names are>Frieren means 'freezing' as in 'du frierst, wir frieren'- it is not nominal it is a verb- it is fucking stupid and the mangaka is retarded
>>98812063Kinda feels they are powerful in order to job, ultimately.Serie should probably be the mightiest entity ever besides the meme demon king, but she couldn't face said demon king for reasons (because "hero party" has to do that).Currently "scheduled for deletion: too old" by humans.Frieren is a discount Serie but the actual biggest mage ever is a human that happened to walk by.Frieren also wasn't the center of the meme hero party, a fucking "yuusha" human boy with zero personality besides a few memes was. Because yuushas are yuushas. (Where do their power comes from? Yuushaium particles or something, similar to dwarfium particles that make warriors skina d clothes not being able to be penetrated by full-power spear tips impacts).All elves will of course die or fade because era of humanity (TM) is coming. Jobbing literally or metaphorically. Not sure if the author does the human>elf wank consciously or if it's just some instinct but meh.Yeah, that shit isn't for me either. Have been reading it from ch1, mostly with growing hate as it progressed and get way too popular for its qualities.
>>98815249>warrior's skin and clothessry didn't pay attention typingin any case, if Frieren aspired to be an "elf" mango, it failed
>>98815249There is just so much more bullshit about its elves - or the lack of it. We get a glimpse of their "civilization" before their almost extinction, and it's the most standard, boring huts imaginable. No grand elfen structures, no wondrous magic, no sophistitcastion and advanced culture.A lot of anime and manga fail at this. There is one elf civilization and it's just some huts around a tree.And what elves even do? They have their lifespan, but they aren't inherently more magical. If they even do something with their lifespan at all, and aren't just bored assholes doing nothing with their time. No increased agility, no keen senses, no connection to nature or the divine. Nothing.Frieren meets Kraft? I get it that they are supposed to die out and have no sex drive. Yeah, didn't expect them to start breeding right in that hut. But wouldn't it be reasonable for one of them say: "Hey, we are both elves. We are rare. We should keep in contact and support each other."Elves are just supposed to die out, no reason given, no question asked. Accept it, it's the premise.
>>98815615>There is one elf civilization and it's just some huts around a tree.Because that's the vague idea usually present in the (native) isekaishit substrate that all these fics/mangas/LNs draw from.
If you can't see that Frieren is a mediocre show elevated by retarded midwits you're part of the problem.
while you were gooning to a midget, this mangaka got itElves should be BIG
nad by BIG, I mean B I G
legends.
There are boards for that.
Tall elves are great.This is just some mommy shit and has nothing to do with elves.
or 209 cm at least
>elf MILF wears jrpg/porn reverse breastplate armor with no torso part>but instead of bikini, it's booba pullover under itWTF
>>98807240God damn it I have been heavily reconsidering repainting my eldar to saim hann and your picture is not doing me any favors.
>>98818534>elaborate clothe patterns>complex and unique belt buckles>interesting blend of metal plantes and what seems like parts of a scalemail>bow
>>98819001Always looking forward to your bow-reviews.
>you have been playin' foosball behind my back!!
>>98819038I'm autistic.
>>98819129Understandable.
>>98819129All of these would suck as actual weapons. Artists always design fancy bows to look pretty from the side, without considering that those designs would prevent the bows from bending. Fancy bows should be wide from the FRONT, not from the side.
>>98819138Now this is so much better. Actual basic knowledge!>>98819159I usually design them wide from front near the grip but go wide from the side near the edges.
>>98819177That's a reasonable bow that looks like it would be able to bend.
What's the elvish solution to institutions and... Basically anything being populated by literal antideluvians? How do they avoid everything being staffed entirely by guys from the bronze age who still think iron is a fad? Is it just a psychological different because they don't age the same way as humans and so don't get bogged down in tradition, or is it just something they've worked around as a civilization?Young Elves seem like they'd have it really rough, maybe it's just tradition for older elves to retire after they turn 500 and give someone else a chance to run stuff?
>>98819845Temporary restrictions, constant rotations on set intervals, regular votes on offices and positions. Elves aren't dumb, they will figure something out. Not necessarily the perfect solution, but they will have answers to that.But yeah, one could also assume that their psychology is more flexible to make it through several hundreds or maybe thousands of years (although, it's rare for elves in /tg/ settings to get that old). One shouldn't assume that they were made wrong, as a joke.

Lewd the elf.

>>98825425He's at /v/ now making retarded threads not about games that the mods tolerate for some fucked reason.
>>98825327Human posters:>I love fucking elves

>>98806314Why is this a general?
>>98828105Anon, that's not human posters.
>>98806314I-Is she holding a snake in her hand?
>>98828156it's chad posters
>>98828214You could do the same with "remove male". Use one of the pics of the slopfag.
>>98828105The humaniggers hate male elves, though.They still jerk off to female elves.You are barking at many wrong trees.
>>98828118It's not a general
Are orcs welcome here?
>>98828676XP is always welcome
>>98828676
>>98828303I love male elves too. I'll bet they're very interesting and friendly.
>>98828676>>98829081What's the fantasy equivalent of Americans?
Cute elf slav
Fact: lighter shade of grey means more human and/or surface elf admixture
>>98829648Whatever the British are except they were cursed and now can't speak below a shout.
>>98829778>being an Americunt is just another flavor of Bri*ish.How revolting!
