And for the record, just to show that likes and dislikes are even more complicated... I don't particularly care for Lodoss War; I watched several episodes and the animation and story just didn't do it for me. Yet still, I like elves with long ears! Madness, eh? :-)

Watched the OAVs or the Serie?

they are quite different in many aspects

It was the one that Netflix sent me. Beyond that... who can say?


I'm a long eared elf fan myself. Sometimes even those freakish huge ones too.
O.o
Just not the ones that are as huge as Warcraft art makes them.. those are wayyyy out of proportion for me. If it fits, it fits, if it don't, it don't. :P

Poor Drew, I hope that his fund raiser got enough for his kid to get a decent college fund.

Golarion elf ears are generally six inches to ten inches long; a foot long isn't impossible, but it's unlikely. As I mentioned above, though, they won't "stick out" if I can help it. They'll "stick up."

As for helmets; an elf helm HAS to look different than those of other races, ears or not. Elves have narrow, slender heads; a human helm will be loose on an elf, I suspect. Elf helms account for the ears, in other words, and generally keep the ears inside the helm.

As for them being lopped off... check the elven general on the alternate cover of the first Second Darkness module. She's only got half an ear on the right side precisely because it got lopped off in one of countless fights.

Helms having to compensate for ears might would have an interesting look to say the least.. I wonder if they'd wear little ear socks to prevent chafing

Sweet.. If the overly long ears have been lopped in some of the art I'm a happy tusker..

What was the story about? Did it have "Lodoss Island" at the end, with chibi Lodossians? Did it have a rogue named Woodchuck?

It left Zero impression on me. I don't remember anything about it. So I can't answer the question, alas.
