Physical Description: Fair skin, soothing brightly colored eyes, and calm voices are among the many common traits of a Light Elf. Unlike Dark Elves, the holy energies do not corrupt them and thus their appearance doesn’t deteriorate.
Associated Class: Light Elves do especially well as Chaplains or Crusaders due in part to their affinity to holy magic. Despite this, Light Elf Mages and Technomancers aren’t uncommon.
Associated Religions: Despite their influence by holy magic, Light Elves try to keep their lives deity free, preferring to give thanks to the world itself. Some Light Elves worship YHVH while others prefer Shinda.
History: Light Elves came about by a fluke, and were not meant to be a real species type until they were created. A group of exploring Elves found themselves being bathed in an enormous amount of holy energy for unknown reasons, and the Elves within those divine rays became Light Elves after that. Because scholars cannot find out the origin for the holy rays, it’s theorized it was the act of a deity of some sort.
Some species view Light Elves as arrogant due to their “higher than thou” view on themselves, seeing the fact that they are partially made of holy energy and thus see them as being superior.
In Morta IV: More common than their counterparts the Dark Elves, Light Elves dot planets across the galaxy, being seen as a good omen across some and as a species of arrogant do-gooders to others. Orcs especially hate the presence of Light Elves on their planets since they refuse to understand Orc customs, and would rather force the Orcs into replacing their customs with the Elven ones. This has led to skirmishes between Light Elves and Orcs which Orcs typically won due to being bred for war. Heion also has a fascination and appreciation for Light Elves, mostly due to their connection to YHVH because of them being holy beings, and thus close to angels.
