Here's some things I salvaged

>Elves are among the most K-selected races in the SotE world. They enjoy the longest life expectancy of all races, but this longer life comes with the disadvantage of an extremely slow maturation rate, higher caloric and nutrient needs than humans, and lower birth rates. Elves are physically frail but virtually immune to chronic diseases that would prematurely end their lives. On its face, these traits don’t appear to complement one another very well when it comes to longevity. However, elves have evolved exceptional dexterity and agility to avoid a violent end to an otherwise long life.

>Their long lifespans dispose them heavily toward being “civilized,” but are able to survive comfortably as a feral race in late succession forests. When feral, they tend to be very shy and evasive, preferring never to be seen except by kin. A feral elf is nearly impossible to witness at all unless directly tracked, even to natural predators who share the same ecosystem.

>Even in their civilized state, elves are considered fairly skewed toward specialization as opposed to generalism. While most specialist races lean toward specific Climate.pngclimate types, elves are specialized for environments which are defensible in order to leverage the advantage of their long potential lifespan. Such environments include younger forests, isolated coastal river valleys, river confluences, remote mountain valleys or islands. Mature elvish societies are known to expand very slowly, but are extremely difficult to displace once established.
