Half-Elf

Half-elves are typically rare in most of Cisum, but the they are slightly more common amongst the islands of the Acapellago. Often seen as outcasts in both human and elven society, half-elves typically find solace in the island chain. The slight differences of the island elves make half-elves more readily accepted and common in the region. Having to keep a foot in both the human and elven lives makes half-elves great diplomats. When they are born or grow up in a region that shuns them, they often turn to adventuring as a way to find purpose.

If playing with achievements and milestones, choosing this race at character creation grants the player the achievement "A Place For Us."

age: Half-elves mature at the same rate as humans do and reach adulthood around the age of 20. They live much longer than humans, however, often exceeding 180 years.
