Elves are the long-lived children of the natural world, they are superficially similar to fairies in many ways, albeit with important differences.

While fey are the nearly immortal voices and guardians of nature, elves are mortals who are in tune with the natural world around them. Elves seek to live in balance with the wild and understand it better than most other mortals.

In 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons, elves are one of the primary humanoid races available for player characters, often playing important roles in the narratives of many worlds.

Renowned for their grace and talent for magic, elves are one of the most famous races players choose for their characters.
