Blahblah
You’re forgetting aboot the lizard riders that are super elite, faster and stronger than knights.
Modeling a dark elf race after the drow would be interesting. They have a definite affinity for magic of the more evil variety and are the most feared race in all the land when it comes to combat. Infantry and pike are your male soldiers. Priestess are ranged spell casters. High priestess are elite spell casters. Then enter tanar’ri, demons from the abyss, that even the drow fear but summon for their evil doings. Food costs for elves in general should be negligible, they’re not known for their feasts like the fat dwarves. The drow also definitely have an orgy as a right of passage, so yeah incorporate that 😂.
