Homebrew Wood Elf Drow Species Details

You are the child of a Wood Elf and a Drow, so your still a full Elf, you are just half two different types of Elf. You have a combination of the abilities and disadvantages of both variants, and the appearance as well.

All Elves have pointed ears and lack of facial and body hair, they live for around 750 yeas, and they don't sleep, but instead when they need to rest they enter a trance, where they remain aware of their surroundings while immersing themselves in memories and meditations. They all tend to be slender and graceful, appearing hauntingly beautiful to humans and members of many other races. They range in height between under 5 foot to just over 6 foot, they are slender weighing only 100 to 145 pounds. Elves colouration encompasses the normal human range as well as including shades of copper, bronze, and almost bluish-white, with hair of green or blue, and eyes like pools of liquid gold or silver.

Wood Elves carry the magic of primeval forests within themselves, and are known by other names, including wild elves, green elves, and forest elves. They tend to be more copperish in hue, sometimes with traces of green, their hair tends to be browns and blacks with occasionally blond or copper-coloured, and their eyes tend to be green, brown, or hazel.

Drows typically dwell in the Underdark, which has shaped them, meaning when some individuals and societies avoid the Underdark altogether they still carry its magic. They also tend to shorter than other variants of Elves, have a darker coloration of dark grey, jet-black and obsidian (with various shades of blue), their teeth are also either white, black or purple, and their gums, tongues and throats could be red, pink or purple, their hair can be stark white, pale yellow, and, rarely, silver or copper in colour, and their eyes could be any colour with red being more common, but also pale shades of nearly white blue , lilac, pink or silver, and rarely with green, brown, black, amber, or rose-hued.
