I have created a world where elves have been at war over the use of nature. During that time, the race has split in two, with the High Elves being the standard race, while Wild Elves have become nature's champions. I would appreciate feedback on my thoughts on this racial variant, as expressed below.
The wild elves have lost some of their magical aptitude. Instead, they have become much wilder, oftentimes almost feral. Their skin is hues of brown and green, with darker hair and eyes. While much of their shelter and clothing is "grown", they do so with little style, so everything is somewhat primitive. They tend to be distrusting of their High Elf neighbors, fearing that they will once more overwhelm the forest with their gardens and parks, pushing out the wilderness. They have become friendly with the dwarves of the Weathered Wall, as they have also come to revere nature, though they do so underground. While wary of humans, they have found that they can form alliances with those who seek to rein in the expansionist tendencies the race possesses. As they live in an area which is geographically isolated, they tend to be somewhat distrustful of most other races.
