48 characters session

I was thinking of making a background race for the creation of the troll session.
It will have 48 characters. I have yet to create a name for it, I was thinking either a selkie, banshees, or eleves.
Of course if banshees are chosen it will be an all female session.

So tell me, what do you think? Links to races are:

ELVES ELVES ELVES ELVES!!!

One vote for elves hahahah

Id like to do this, and elves or banshees!

I think eleves are popular :D

but you forget. the squiddles were the 48 person session before the trolls.

I know they were but this could be the 'squiddle' substitution plus its just for fun.

Selkie looks like it could be cool!

i know its just for fun but i like mentioning squiddles. they funny.

Some friends and I actually made a psuedo-elven race a while ago...

Basically it was set up so the class system was Dark Elves, Wood Elves, and Light Elves (from lowest to highest). Dark Elves dwelling in caves, Woods in the woods, and Light being... well, meadows and fluffy happy places. Of course, these features defined only basic ways of life, like diets and dwellings and skin color.
The "ruler" of the race was a kind of cherub-esque combination of a light and dark elf, a female and male, and they would sort of... well, one would be awake for 24 hours, then the other, and they knew little of each other as they didn't really have an effective form of communication. (We designed that like this because we needed to have six players and every day of the week, because Norse mythology...) The elves had this set up so because of tensions between the Dark and Light elves.
One of those friends (who is actually Illy) and I came up with the idea of giving them wings, and making a lot of culture centered around that, because Homestuck p much never sticks strictly to mythology and that would be fucking rad.

Is it evident yet that I adore elves and that my vote totes goes with them

I thought it was the squiddles?

But if we are making up a race then...

Goblins? Elves? BOTH!

I'm thinking, 24 are Elves, 24 are Goblins.


But they are the same race, but goblins are smaller and green, and not beautiful like the elves, long ears and noses, pointy teeth, the works. Higher ranked elves start to have antlers.

The leader of the whole race, elves and goblins, is the Erlking, who has the beauty of elves and the strength of goblins, as well as their fangs, the Erlking can be female, but is always called king.

Traits of the elves:
They are Beautiful, but cruel, they pride dept over all else, they see love as "The person you want to blackmail into dating you", They have a concept of owning one another, but its seen in a romantic light. Elves are very promiscuous and love to explore other races... in that way... ((half elves anyone?)) While they are beautiful, they actually judge looks based on the race, not their own, so the ugly goblins are still attractive to them. They feel a second love, which is "The one you want to protect"

There are Four subclasses of elves ((Because I liked that idea))

High Elves - Skin like pearls, amethyst, or gold - large antlers, very pompous
Wood Elves - Skin like bronze, moss, or tree sap - strongest elves, very common and down to earth
Dark Elves - Skin like obsidian, sapphires, or granite - smartest elves, semi treaturous
Blood Elves - Skin like rubies, clay, or coral - most warlike elves, tend to wear armor

-goblins soon-

I love this idea and I, of course, vote for the Elves. I like the sub-classes, especially when combined with Chaotic's descriptions of High, Wood, Dark and Blood, except the antlers. I just don't like the thought of Elves with antlers.

I'm actually starting sprite bases for this :D

I made four different elf ear styles sooooo I thinking one style for each subclass or maybe like the ear styles mingle in each caste?

Maybe longer ears for higher classes? And the lowest classes could have human-like ears. That could contribute to the troll ears, and then from there to the human ears...

Also, I think having blood being more clear could be cool, and from there light is separated into the spectrum, so, like, hemospectrum.

Additionally I think behaviors should be mostly the same, though maybe the ancestors were like that? Which is what might have started wars and things. But as HS tends to get more "progressive" in the generations that play the game, I think it might make sense for attitudes and things to be much the same among the classes, though stereotypes still exist from the days when things like worship contributed to behavior.

And yo anyone up for wings like that could be fuckin rad
Wiiiiiiiings

Maybe wings for god tiers?

Whispers trolls are not usually grey skinned with orange horns and cherubs are traditionally flying babies we can p much do whatever we want here and totally get away with it

*really wants to know about goblins to edit sprite sheet*

*would totally love to do this and hands down votes for elves*

*already started elf character but not sure about hair color rules and clothing styles for each caste*

*Is completely up for this amazing idea and is into the elf ideas and is interested in the character rules*

*omg me too*

*is also wondering about elven appearance so I can start making a character and omg is so pumped for this*

*changes vote to Elf and is totally pumped*

*is also really fricken excited*

Maybe hair should just be whatevsies? Because troll hair is all black so maybe there could be black hair for dark elves (who also maybe have grey skin?) and so that is the space player so trolls? I could make that character btw
And then the others could have hair that corrolates with their type. Light elves have platinum blonde or white, wood elves have green or brown and every color in between, blood elves could be clear if we do clear blood, and so on and so forth because I can't remember other names.

Sorry not space player, ectobiologist.
