Mist Elves are another well-known elven subrace. Deep within the ancient forests of Nyrus, the Mist Elves have crafted their serene havens. These elusive beings have an innate connection to nature, enhancing the mystical ambiance of their dwellings. Unlike other elves who might build grand cities, Mist Elves prefer small settlements. They construct their villages with the utmost respect for the natural world. Their homes blend seamlessly with the environment, designed to preserve the delicate balance of the land. Each structure, whether a simple hut or a communal hall, is built from natural materials, skillfully integrated into the forest without disrupting its harmony.
Graceful and refined, Mist Elves possess an ethereal beauty that reflects their deep bond with nature. Their movements are fluid, their voices soft and melodious, embodying the tranquility of their surroundings. They strive to live harmoniously with the flora and fauna, often seen tending to the ancient trees and conversing with woodland creatures. Their lifestyle is one of simplicity and balance, where every action is considered in relation to its impact on the natural world.
In the heart of their forested realms, Mist Elf villages exude a serene and timeless quality. Delicate walkways wind through towering trees, leading to beautifully carved homes nestled among the branches or tucked into moss-covered glades. The air is thick with the scent of pine and earth, and the constant whisper of leaves creates a soothing symphony. It is a place where the boundaries between the elves and nature blur, and where the Mist Elves can live in the peace they so deeply cherish.
Description
Mist Elves, like their elven kin, share the typical size and height ranges common to their race, with lean, graceful bodies that move with an almost ethereal elegance. Their hair, a notable feature, grows exceptionally long and is usually found in shades of light brown or blonde. Most Mist Elves have straight hair, though curls are not uncommon, adding to their enchanting appearance. Their eyes, reflecting the lush landscapes they inhabit, range from deep green to various shades of blue, giving them a gaze that seems to mirror the forest itself.
In their attire, Mist Elves prioritize comfort and practicality, wearing light, breathable clothing that allows for easy movement through the dense woodland terrain. Their garments are often in earth tones and shades of green, blending seamlessly with their natural surroundings. Favoring a close connection to the earth, many Mist Elves choose to go barefoot, believing that this practice strengthens their bond with nature and enhances their sensitivity to the world around them. The combination of their natural elegance and their attunement to the forest makes Mist Elves a captivating and integral part of the woodland realms they call home.

Where They Live
The Mist Elves dwell deep within the ancient, verdant forests of Nyrus, choosing to live in places where whispering trees and perpetual mist create an atmosphere of serene mystique. These forests, often shrouded in a veil of fog, provide a sanctuary away from the clamor of the outside world. The Mist Elves favor secluded groves, hidden valleys, and mystical glades where the boundaries between the physical and the ethereal seem to blur.
Primarily, their lands are located within the enchanting forests of Eldenvar. Here, their villages blend seamlessly into the lush landscape, a testament to their profound respect for nature. Some adventurous Mist Elves have crossed oceans to settle in the dense jungles of Thundarum and the misty mountain forests of Igochi, expanding their serene enclaves to distant, yet similarly shrouded, environments.
Despite their occasional voyages, Mist Elves are not particularly fond of the sea, preferring instead the serene and pristine inland waters of rivers and lakes. Thus, some of their settlements are found near these tranquil waters, always nestled within the heart of woodlands. Their presence by these inland waters enhances the already mystical ambiance of their homes, providing them with the peaceful coexistence with nature they so deeply cherish.
