The High Elf
The aristocratic High Elf belongs to the ancient race that is partly responsible for the conflict that is unsettling Ancaria. Long years of studying elemental magic has turned the High Elf into a master of sorcery. She considers the control over T-Energy as a birthright and approaches members of other races with arrogance.
The Adept is a member of one of the ruling families and as such her demeanor is aristocratic. She is knowledgeable of the ancient Elven spells and thus she is very powerful in battle. The Adept is tall and slender and moves with inimitable grace. Her robes are colorful and adorned with numerous runes.
A classic sorceress, she is well-versed in three powerful magic disciplines. Some of her spells can be cast with no more than a simple mouse movement! In addition, the High Elf's magic can be used in conjunction with her hand-to-hand combat, making her an able fighter.
The Story
High Elf Class Quest (Light Path)
High Elf Class Quest (Shadow Path)
Strange and dreadful stories reach the gates of the ancient academy of magic in Thylysium. The tales carry bleak news about horrifying incidents: Apparently, entire landscapes have been infested with the chaotic power of the T-Energy. Tidings of mutated animals and monstrous creatures in the north of the country are being heard. The world is on the brink of a major disaster and nobody seems to be able to avert the imminent danger.
The Masters of the academy send their best student to find out what is going on in Ancaria. That is the moment the High Elf has been waiting for! Finally, she will be able to use her magical abilities and to prove her wisdom.
Her hunger for adventures and her insatiable desire to increase her knowledge are essential conditions to reach that goal.
The Paths

|
Following the path of shadow, the High Elf will seize the opportunity to lead her house back to where it once belonged: To the very top of the High Elven society. During her travels across Ancaria she intends to find powerful allies and to improve her magical abilities. She is scheming to reinstate her family as sovereigns, and to place herself at the top of the academy. In order to reach this goal, she is prepared to destroy literally everything...

- Or maybe she will choose the path of light?

This would be the perfect moment to intervene! Ancaria is in turmoil. Injustice, oppression and hatred are commonplace. The Humans must finally be freed from slavery and they must be given power to vote. Now is the time to lead the world into a more secure future.

- Arrant Pyromancer - Choosing this aspect will render the Adept as the classic mage, fully devoted to the element of fire. The very nature of these studies is a burning aggression, leading to a predominantly offensive style. Executing the art of fire magic allows for a wide flexibility in which the spells can easily be individually adapted.
- Mystic Stormite - Here she specializes in ice magic, putting emphasis on her own protection while also weakening the opponent. This art of magic is the opposite of fire magic. It is much more defensive, although even a storm magician is able to weave some powerful attack spells.
- Delphic Arcania - This aspect comprises many powerful and effective spells. A High Elf proficient in the study of the Arcane Illusionist wields magic that will assist and protect, equipping the mage for confrontations in melee combat. This is the school of classic magic, well suited to support one of the other aspects.

Wind Serpent
The Wind Serpent would seem almost cute, if it weren’t for its glowing eyes. The Wind Serpent’s appearance is not as commanding as that of a Dragon, but its powers are no less formidable.
