I really don't know why there are so many, though, considering that Elves are long-lived with low birth rates and all that. Boring? Never! Fruity glittersparkle Mary Sues? Possibly. I_Abibde posted... I really don't know why there are so many, though, considering that Elves are long-lived with low birth rates and all that. The current explanation involves magic. The original elves as Corellon created them were apparently magical chaotic shape-shifters with no fixed form, until Lolth basically tricked them into rebelling in favor of gaining some sense of order and permanence. Then Corellon basically cursed them ALL (not just the Drow), so they were all doomed to assume a single form, losing their ability to freely adapt and change at will. Each little elf clique basically just adapted to wherever they spent most of their time.
