    Half-elves

    Discussion thread for Half-elves.

    Both those links appear to point to the same page, one of which should be an "official" page. Suggestions anyone?

    I think the very top one is clear and covers all information needed.

    One should have been the BRCS page. Now fixed.

    Again, isn't there some problem with the "low-light vision" section wording? should be a mutiplier instead of a pure numeral ft consideration? (like, two times a human normal vision, etc)

    You're right. I just changed that to the 3.5 standard of double vision and then I protected it, seeing as it's an official BRCS page.

    Apologies for that... I used the wrong version of the BRCS. Now all fixed (I hope).

    Look out for bad formating. Some inner link problem still on the page, I believe.

    So, can this be a general discussion area for Half-Elves?

    If so:

    What Half-Elven Monarchs exist that rule Sidhelien nations? Perhaps even in the past?

    I can't see why they couldn't have ruled sidhe nations - canon is that the sidhe see them as sidhe afterall. However if you use the Hanner Sidhe approach, it might not work quite so well, since the half-sidhe would be a human who had been influenced by the sidhe, rather than a genetic hybrid.

    Personally I've never thought that the sidhe got too fussed about rulership, seeing it as a burden, and fundamentally being happy to change 'king' every time they decided the king wasn't going in the right direction, got bored, etc - I have a rather over-long user page on the subject on the wiki. So being fairly relaxed about half-sidhe ruling them rather than full sidhe sounds fine to me.

    That said sidhe are immortal, and so the kingdoms may have had very rulers at all - Cwmb Bheinn from recollection still has the same ruler as it did before Deismaar.

    So I'd say yes, there probably has been one - certainly there will have been prominent half sidhe (innishiere has one in canon I think), most of the elven realms haven't been dug into much, Tuar Annwn and Lluabriaght are the least accessible or human-friendly, but other realms are possibilities.
