The Hálfur

Basic Information

Anatomy

High Elves have two arms and two legs with six digits on each limb. Antenna extends from their forehead and becomes longer with age, falling behind their ears. High Elves all have naturally long hair that can easily reach their waists if not maintained.

Genetics and Reproduction

High Elves reproduce through sexual means via (1) male and (1) female which results in a gestation period for the female of 4-5 months, producing 3-4 offspring. High Elf genes, like all Alfr species Genes, take only the best genes and pass them onto the offspring. The best genes are described as being genes that best support the Alfr's primary goal of survival through biological dominance.

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

  • Supernatural Senses: The power to possess transcendent senses. The user's sense of sight, taste, hearing, touch, and smell are super-unnaturally more acute than other beings in their universe. They can see thousands of miles away with immense resolution and see/track things too fast for the natural eye, hear through dense walls perfectly and listen to the smallest vibrations/noises from extremely faraway places, and smell anything over vast distances up to and including individual molecules/atoms, taste the smallest details to the extent of distinguishing at a molecular level, and feel the slightest vibration in the air, ground, and water. In some cases, the user can develop a sixth sense and various ESP abilities, allowing them to perceive/sense things no ordinary senses can detect.
  • Supernatural Longevity: The power to not age. Users of this ability never age, and as a result, they stay young forever or at least never suffer the ravages of aging. Because of this, the user will always be at their physical prime. The user will also be immune to aging abilities like Age Acceleration or Reversal.
  • Supernatural Immune System: The power to possess an immune system stronger than what is naturally possible. The user's immune system is glaringly, obviously, and super/unnaturally more powerful than other beings of their universe, making them immune to all contaminants and diseases that would debilitate or kill normal people.
  • Zoolingualism: The power to talk to animal life forms and understand their reactions. The user can understand the speech or emotions of animal life forms. This ability is quite uncommon and multifaceted. Some variations are magic-based while others are natural talents or mental powers, similar to Telepathy (but limited to animals). Zoolingualism is sometimes imagined as imitating animal sounds, like the barking of a dog. Zoolinguists are normally shown using their abilities in their native language, in an animal language (like Parseltongue or Mangani), or even mentally without any spoken words.
  • Multidimensional Thought: The ability to sustain multiple lines of thought simultaneously. While most species are constrained to focusing on a single idea or task at a time, the High Elves can navigate the complexities of up to 5 different streams of consciousness concurrently.
  • Supernatural Intelligence: The power to rapidly process, simplify, and innovate complex concepts, devise advanced solutions, and achieve extraordinary cognitive feats beyond standard human capability. These users can process and integrate new information at an incredible speed, effortlessly simplifying complex concepts and systems. They can reimagine past knowledge in their minds, coming up with fresh and innovative ideas and groundbreaking solutions.

Civilization and Culture

Naming Traditions

Male Hálfur names typically consist of a given name followed by a family or clan name. These names often have a melodic and grandiose quality, reflecting the Hálfur's majestic nature and cultural pride. Male given names often end in "-en," "-ol," or "-ar," creating a strong and resonant sound. Examples include Rolen, Araro, Heren, and Thevan. Family and Clan names often end in "-dur," "-kirthol," "-aer," or "-kyre," suggesting ancient lineages and significant family histories. Examples include Nodeldur, Maerkirthol, Liaraer, and Staciakyre.

  • Rolen Nodeldur
  • Araro Maerkirthol

Female Hálfur names share similar structures but often incorporate softer, more flowing sounds. They maintain the same emphasis on heritage and lineage, with an added touch of elegance. Female given names frequently end in "-a," "-el," or "-iel," creating a lyrical and graceful tone. Examples include Vashanna, Myriell, Erlias, and Anaiel. As with male family names, these often end in "-dur," "-raer," "-kirthol," or "-gala," emphasizing their noble ancestry. Examples include Rumraer, Ilphelhond, Cryshaldur, and Meligala.

Average Technological Level

High Elves are exceptionally technologically advanced, perhaps one of the most advanced species in reality, having developed technology so advanced it can be confused with mage.

  • Gene Key: The High Elf Empire is based on genetics and genes. Almost all High Elf technology, from starships to simple firearms, operates off Gene Key technology, where the person in question must be of the right stock and bloodline to use certain technology. Gene Keys are advanced technology that allows extreme control over all imperial citizens.

History

The Great Parasite & the Fall of High Rock

The People of Høystein (High Rock) was a vaguely humanoid race of people until the Advent of the Álfr, which was spread via a research explorer Dr. Adamar Elkalyn who found the Alfr parasite on the edges of creation after a vast expedition. Dr. Elkalyn brought samples back to his homeworld for further study and development, unaware that he was already infected, along with everyone else he came into contact with.

The good doctor had a daughter, Rubarae, who was born as the very first High Elf, the new race that was quickly going to consume High Rock. The people of High Rock who contracted the parasite became Half-Elves and their children were born as full-blooded High Elves. The Alfr spread exponentially at an alarming rate, so fast so effectively that nobody knew what was happening until it was too late.

The 1st Álfuríki & the Spread of the Alfr

In modern times, may one take note of how similar many alien species are, two legs, two arms, and relative torso size. Many blame King David of the House of Kings and his grand crusade for this, as he was said to have taken 100 wives from each planet he conquered and many concubines. A fair conclusion, as David conquered much of the Midgard universe, almost all of it. But it was the Álfuríki and King Cyran that paved the way for such a thorough conquering to even happen. The Álfuríki were masters of gene-splicing and saw fit to mold many races in their image, a permanent signature and proof of the power of the High Elves for all to see. They conquered galaxies and reduced entire species into slave races, sterilized and handicapped for a single mundane purpose. This is why many Human-like species, which is most alien species, are Hálfur-like, including Humans.

The 1st Álfuríki, or simply the First Great Elven Empire, was founded by Abu Ysellia Cyran ibn Rubarae ibnat Adamar ibn Ilphelhond al-Inacan min al-Bayt Høystein, simply known in history as Emperor Cyan. The Empire, under Immortal Elf Lord Cyan, was the bane of existence for many species, subjugating entire civilizations and consuming entire galaxies to feed their designs for creation. The 1st Elf Empire was defeated decisively by the Knights of the Round Table, the military arm of the Dragon Cult, led by the House of Pen. Cyran is venerated for his courage and bravery in leading the Crusades that created his vast empire.
