Editing Snow Elf (section)

==History==
The rift between the snow elves and their cousins stems from the same wars that drove the drow underground. The snow elves were deceived into allowing passage (for a large profit) of the drow through a mountain pass they controlled, not knowing - so they claimed - that the drow were serving Lolth and had recently declared war on their cousin elves. While never formally condemned by their relatives, the snow elves have been universally shunned by them ever since. Valley elves, themselves largely disliked by others, tolerate snow elves perhaps because each views the other as sharing a similar plight - neither race is considered "true elves" by their cousins.

Mankind's quarrels with the snow elves also stem from twilit history. The snow elves were ever taller and more haughty than other elves - or even men - and they sought once to dominate or destroy the men who entered their mountain valleys and homes, earning forever the hatred of the more numerous race.

Relationships with other races, such as [[uldra]] or the arctic branches of [[gnome]]s, [[dwarves]] and [[halfling]]s, are unclear, but presumably they share a mutual enmity with each other. Snow elves are kind of jerks, if you haven't been paying attention.
