The Elves[1] (singular: Elf) are an Ancient race in the world of Arknights.

Description[]

As their name suggests, Elves resemble the eponymous race from various fantasy settings in our world, which can be seen from their longer, pointed ears, and a taller stature when compared to Durins. They also possess a very long lifespan that can keep their youth forever.[2] Unfortunately, Elves are very sensitive to Originium, and Oripathy will drastically decrease their lifespan to only less than a month. Such inadaptation also causes the Elves to lack the ability to use any kind of Originium Arts, but their unique "magic" can supplement such defect.[3]

Due to Originium pollution caused by the industrialization of Terran civilization in modern era, Elves are currently an endangered race, being dubbed as only "belonging to the past."[4][5] Most Elves choose either living a hermit life up in the forests or risking their lives to dwell in cities.[3] Nevertheless, there are still Elven communities thriving in some unpolluted havens in the wilderness such as the forests in central Sami.[6]
