Elves are arrogant know it alls who hate everything other than trees, and themselves. I hate elves. Fuckers. Joking. Elves are cool. But they are aloof and keep to themselves, according to D&D mythos anyway. Well, full elves anyways. And drow and aquatic elves and the almost dissipated Avariel…I don’t see elves as the antithesis of trolls. Trolls exist for the purpose of fucking shit up, and were preceded by the Vikings, who in turn existed to get drunk and then fuck shit up…I think a fairy would be the opposite of a troll. Disregarding Irish mythology where fairies are mostly bastards who deceive you into eternal torment, or, to a lesser extent, cause you to go blind or kidnap babies…fairies are widely known for being all cute, cheery and bringing forth good fortune and generally making everything seem like a My Little Pony meme, but without all the underlying hints at seedy societies.
They’re just fun and lovely to have around, unlike a troll, who is the contrary. And not only because they carry trees as weaponry or just won’t die unless you’re a pyro. I guess elves are fairy like, due to their physical attributes and affiliation with nature. Hippies.
Oh wait this is some online shit. I think I failed my saving throw at subtlety. Goddamn thaco…wait you mean that went out of date?? I knew that moving to Menzoberranzan was bullshit.
…sorry. But yeah, fairies. Or fae. Or pixies. Or wtv online forum you’re on calls em.
