I'm looking at making an elf from the Mordant Spire, which is a little difficult since there's a grand total of two paragraphs about them in the Elves of Golarian sourcebook. and I was wondering if they're equivalent to any other culture, mainly so I can get ideas of what kind of masks they wear; or even why they wear them.
I believe some details are specifically not provided with the intent to allow the DM/players some room to be creative. I think this is one of those cases. In my campaign, the Elves of the Mordant Spire are somewhat misunderstood and the Spire itself is in fact a magical stone barrier, created by the ancient Azlants that covers a tower, containing an Elf gate. Their ancient enemies managed to take the tower briefly, knowing that they would not be able to hold it for long. Shortly after they captured the tower, they created the barrier with the intent to cut off the elves escape back to Sovyrian. They had hoped to completely annihilate them. The only reason the elves from that area today are so territorial is because they still consider themselves at war with humans but desire to return to Sovyrian. They live in the hope that they will one day figure out a way to return.
