Description
Stone Elves are biologically and culturally distinct from the other types of Elves. They are identical to High Elves in appearance except for their pure white skin, and rather than elaborate formal wear, Stone Elves prefer practical, simple clothing. Their culture isolates itself in a vast city built beneath mountains, a city almost no one else has seen. The Stone Elves, as a culture, place immense value on knowledge, and it is said that their Great Library is a repository of all there is to know. This Race prides itself on mental discipline, and never displays emotion of any kind - any lapse in control and the Elf will meditate until it is regained. Like the Biata, Stone Elves are capable of manipulating a subject’s mind. Usually this service is sought after to cure phobias and such, but true masters of this discipline are said to be capable of great feats.

Disadvantage
In order to learn to use a Two Handed Weapon a Stone Elf must pay double the listed cost. The skill Weapon Master is 5 Build more expensive for this Race. Bows and Crossbows are not considered Two Handed Weapons.

Enforced Roleplay
Stone Elves view emotion as a disease, a weakness and something to be avoided at all cost. Logic and reason guide the life of a Stone Elf. Stone Elves do not deny that they are occasionally subject to emotion, but seek to repress it. When a StoneElf accidentally falls prey to an emotion they must take 10 minutes to meditate, as soon as possible, to cleanse their mind and regain their composure. Failure to do this leads to a loss of control and you are no longer immune to Berserk for the next 3 events you attend.

Make-Up/Costume
As a Stone Elf all of your skin must be covered or made to be pure white via make up. You must also wear prosthetic Elf ears.
