Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nah, these are the nicest of the elf cultures. While most are xenophobic in some way, these guys like anyone they can trade with. It's more of a preference to keep form being on land than a taboo.

[align=center]Well I'd say that an ice elf would have limited control over water... Like, she could be able to breath out a cold 'mist' that, when it touches something, it turns into a kind of thin icy layer. Kind of a more realistic version of ice breath, I guess.
But that mist would be from the water in her body, so I'd say that she'd have to drink a lot of water to use that a lot. Her body temperature would probably be very cold, her skin cool to the touch, etc.
I'd say that if she wanted to make something out of ice she'd need to have a body of water handy first, like a lake. She could have a kind of limited psychic ability over water, so that she can float it up and over to it and shape it into whatever she wants, then freeze it.
She would probably be most powerful in the rain... Like if she could get close enough to you while you were wet, she could just freeze a whole layer of ice over you.

Which is beginning to give me an idea about elemental elves all being different sub-species...
What if I combined fantasy and sci-fi and put every fantasy species on their own planet?
E.g. a planet where elves replace humans, a planet for dwarfs...
The faeries could possibly share a planet with the humans... Since humans are similar to elves in basics, but aren't as magical, not to mention very wasteful, the faeries could be kind of like protectors of the planet...

Okay thats right I was trying to remember about that for the life of me I just couldn't remember though, anyways thanks for the quick answer compendium, I really do appreciate that it helped out a lot.

I kinda like writing about her she's rather interesting due to her powers, and with what I think up about her during the process, I have loads of fun with it all. I do have a weather elemental who technically controls the weather and everything so it's rather interesting to toy with.

My mule wants help

Alright guys, I need help now on a writing problem, not really elf-related, but it will involve elves. Ready? here we go:
Well, I began my ninth book in in my main series a little over a month ago. I had been going along pretty well; the plot's good, the characters are as 3D as my current writing skills can allow, and I was doing pretty well, as I have stated. But I had stopped writing in the story, taking on several side projects, mainly short stories and poetry, along with song writing for my band. Now, I have tried to return to writing my main story, and... well, I can't seem to get into it. My mind won't focus on it. Does anybody here have any tips for getting back into a story?

Usually when I can't seem to figure out how to get back into writing again, I relax and kick back try some reading or else some music ofcourse.

I hit those problems now and then, it just takes a little while just go over what you've written is also a good way to getting back into the writing mode. Basically refresh your memory of what has happened and slowly start up from there.
