Elves are magical creatures who have light- or darkness-based[1] powers.
Overview[]
They originate from the Elven Kingdom (or possibly the Athryell Dimension[2]) and are deeply connected to nature.[1] There are also Dark Elves who exist in the Legendarium World. According to Palladium, they originated from their underworld and are capable of great cruelty.[1]
Appearance[]
The elves look like human beings but with pointed ears and long straight hair, as well as a feminine appearance for both male and female elves, though Professor Palladium's appearance became more masculine in Season 2.
The dark elves dress in darker clothing; Stella had also mentioned that they are beautiful.[1]
Magical Abilities[]
Elves have light-based powers whereas dark elves have darkness-based powers. They can do convergence[3] and some elves are shown to wield a magic scepter, like Athris.[1]
