Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.
A medium-sized creature dedicated to the ruthless protection of nature.

Elves are smelly tree fondling hippies humanoids dedicated to the protection of their concept of nature (focused on trees).

Elven caravans arrive in late spring. During Template:L, elves will not accept wood, wooden items or any goods Template:L with wood. This includes clear and crystal Template:L items and soap, because wood-derived Template:L and Template:L are used in their production, however, ash-glazed items are acceptable. Elves will, however, gladly trade you their own wooden items. They will not, however, accept their wooden items back. Bunch of hypocritical bastards. Be careful to not offer them your wooden bins or barrels, or quivers containing wooden bolts/arrows. If the contents of bins are marked for trade individually, and are not wooden themselves, the elves will not care that you used wooden bins to haul the goods to the depot. You may also steal from them without any repercussions as they cannot fight back.

Offending elves by attempting to trade wooden items quickly causes them to refuse further trade this year and leave early.
Repeatedly offending elves by attempting to trade wooden items may cause them to attack your fortress with an Template:L.

Elves will generally accept items made of green glass, stone, metal, bone and other refuse, silk, leather, plant fiber cloth, meat and fish, totems, and even plants. They will accept animals in trade, as long as their Template:L are not wooden.

They also accept raw clear glass and raw crystal glass, despite the fact that they are made using Template:L.

Elves generally bring all kinds of wooden items like barrels and cages, animals, alcohol, plant fiber and its products as well as small quantities of weapons, armor and plants (The weapons and armor are made out of wood). They usually bring tamed rare animals, which may be important if you want to have Template:L or some other beasts for your army and zoo.

Unlike other races, Elves are fine with eating sentient creatures. Looking in legends mode shows that an elven combatant will sometimes devour the other person they were fighting when they win.
