Trivia[]
- In their point of origin, The Lord of The Rings, Tolkien never mentions that they have pointed ears.
- However, elves are almost universally described as very tall, with very keen senses - hearing and eyesight being common, and having an acute sense of smell is not unheard of.
- However, heights in the subraces can differ. The elves of Gielinor and the Dunmer and Bosmer of Tamriel are shorter than the average human.
