The firstborn race, or Eldar, the Elves are the noblest and greatest of all Middle-earth's folk. Immortal and unchanging, Elves suffer not the blights of disease, nor the long slow decay of age, yet they can be slain in battle, or succumb to withering from grief. It is through the Elves that many of the wonders of Middle-earth came to pass, whether they be keen-bladed weapons, songs of great beauty and skill or simply wisdom and knowledge. That which they did not craft themselves is almost always the result of their teachings, for their minds are keen and their hands dextrous beyond the belief of Dwarves or Men.
"We have dwelt in the West since the days of dawn... but our time here is at an end... Soon all Elves will have passed over the Seas to the Undying Lands.."
- Elrond of
Rivendell,
The Fellowship of The Ring.
