 Like other elf cultures, The Avariel are defined by their relationship to their former home. Like the drow, Avariel believe that it is impossible to return to the Faerealm. However, unlike the drow, they did not want to put another world through the pain they felt when their home was taken from them. As such, they wanted to leave Aldrea to its existing inhabitants and worked to become as uninvolved with non-elves as possible, making them almost mythological creatures. Like other elf cultures, The Avariel are defined by their relationship to their former home.

 Like other elf cultures, The Drowriel are defined by their relationship to their new home. The Drow believe that they are permanently stuck on earth and there is no way to return to the Faerealm. Because of this, they believed that conquering Aldrea as a new home for the fae was the best course of action. Like other elf cultures, The Drowriel are defined by their relationship to their new home.

 Wood Elves have fully embraced the earth and consider returning to the Faerealm a lost cause. They believe it is best to make due with Aldrea and work to improve it by making it resemble the Faewilds. Because of this, they view the planet and nature as consecrated, working to preserve nature around them. Living high in the trees, Wood Elves build homes of living branches as to not harm the forest. Wood Elves have fully embraced the earth and consider returning to the Faerealm a lost cause.

 Elven culture centers heavily around the fact that their ancesters, the first Elves, were Summer Fae driven from the Faerealm by the Winter Fae. Elves believe the most important thing is to become worthy of entering the Faerealm once more so they can defeat the Winter Fae and take back their homelands. The subraces of elves came about over philosophical differences of how to accomplish this and they physically and philosophically changed from what they originally were. Elven culture centers heavily around the fact that their ancesters, the first Elves, were Summer Fae driven from the Faerealm by the Winter Fae.

 Villages tend to stay hidden from outsiders, and elves tend to be incredibly private, especially to non-fae. An elf would allow a [[gnome]] or a [[satyr]] to come visit and discuss the news of the day, but would be much less welcome to a [[human]], an [[orc]] or a [[dwarf]]. They are often offended by non-Fae who try to live in Elf communities or learn Elven languages. Villages tend to stay hidden from outsiders, and elves tend to be incredibly private, especially to non-fae.

 Elves can go adventuring for a variety of reasons, but a common reason is to help with the fight for their homelands. Whether it’s looking for a new portal to the [[aldrea:Faerealm]], finding any artifacts from their first arrival that may help them in their fight, or to collect ancient magics that can counter the Winter, many elves are driven by a love for their homeland. Elves can go adventuring for a variety of reasons, but a common reason is to help with the fight for their homelands.
