They existed in a world without the Veil and called the Fade the "sky". Though most of the elven language has been lost, they once referred to themselves as "elvhen," which means "the People".Īncient elves, elvhen, were once a race of beautiful, ethereal immortals who lived in harmony with nature. Modern humans use the racial slurs "knife ears," "slant-eared" or, less cruelly, "rabbit". In Ancient Tevinter elves were called "rattus". Overall, the elves are now a people associated with poverty, crime and barbarism, and are often used as scapegoats for humanity's difficulties. Many elves are still held as slaves within Tevinter, and many others have joined the Qunari in hopes for better lives. Since then, the elves have separated into two distinct groups: the Dalish, who choose to lead nomadic lives and strive to keep elven culture alive rather than submit, and the city elves, who live alongside humans, usually as impoverished outcasts, and have adopted many human customs. They attempted to rebuild their society in the Dales, but after three centuries the Dales fell to one of the Chantry's Exalted Marches.
After the fall of their great city of Arlathan and the empire of Elvhenan, plunder by the Tevinter Imperium and the subsequent generations of slavery, the elves lost most of their cultural heritage and identity. Long ago, the elves were the dominant race on Thedas, and their advanced civilization was based on nature, the Fade and magic.
