I'm sorry but elves just look wrong as POC, they lose so much of their ethereal beauty and the purity that they represent.

“Im sorry but black people cant be elves because black people arent beautiful or good”

Please tell me this anon is fucking joking.

Poc can’t be pure apparently

This is something a friend of mine actually said to my face while I was talking about diversity in books the other day. I really don’t understand how people could think it’s strange for a fictional mythical creature to have darker skin. If it’s about staying close to the original, then why do they think it’s fine for vampires to walk out in the sun? Why do they use Tolkien as a source instead of the original elves? And if it’s about beauty and purity… how can they not see how racist they are? How blinded can they be by their own hateful delusions? 

I hope the anon trips and falls into a pile of wet shit for their disgusting, racist delusions

like seriously I don’t even have a longwinded educational comeback for that they’re just disgusting fucking hell ew anon I wish upon you allergies to everything and a rash in your privates 

And I hope you know how ugly and impure and dirty you are

Impure and “unethereal” my ass

elves are elves, people are people, “pure white skin” or not. in fact, we need more dark skinned elves to add to this - i suggest others add their own art too. 

Yeah but those are all dark elves. Or drow. And as you see none of them are represented as pure and good. Cigarettes, evil grins, scars. In eleven mythology, the elves ,who were pure and often represented in white, live above ground with pure and lawful ways while the dark elves live underground in a city teeming with evil and unfairness, thats just how the general mythology goes. I agree this anon was obviously backed by racial issues but that doesn’t mean they is correct in facts.

Im sorry, excuse you? The second character is a dark elf, yes, the others are not. 

The first one is my character Ievos, who is the god of void in my world. A being of power, seen as the primary religious figure in my story. He is seen as complete and total pure perfection in my story and is anything but a dark elf. ie: How we see “God” and “Jesus” in our religions in reallife.

The second one, Addifore, is indeed a dark elf and is the admiral of the King’s army. 

The third one, Dilandau, is a wood elf - and since WHEN does having scars make you evil? I have a scar on my waist, am I evil? He’s adopted refugee camps of children and lead them to safety in RP before, in contrast to the albino high elves who are actually quite stuck up and wouldn’t aid lowbloods.

The fourth one, OF ALL characters, just because she has scars does not make her evil. Clauhdia is a wood elven priest who tends to the sick and injured in the war. She was caught in a FIRE as a child, thus her scars. Totally makes her evil, right?

How about you stop judging people based on their appearances?? Scars, smoking, dark skin, even if you have all three of these features doesn’t make you bloody evil for christ’s sake. 

HAHAHAHA “WHITE SKIN = PURE CHARACTER”
