Description
But not really though. It was a funny title when I thought of it though.

Two elfs in two days, with a dwarf to boot! But what's this, this isn't an elf, nor a dwarf you might say. And to that I reply, aha! but they are! Or at least, not as we know them. These two were just a little doodle trying to mimic the "elf and dwarf combo team" that pops up a fair bit in fantasy literature, arguably the most famous example of which is Legolas and Gimli from Tolkein's Lord of the Rings. This was created with the conception of going back to the earliest roots of the elf and dwarf, however.

This incarnation elf, of ljósálf if you prefer, is more of a spirit, or apparition. He walks out of alleys to give mystic advice and grave warnings, then disappears as if he were nothing but smoke and dreams. If you manage to catch him on the street, you should not acknowledge him. He's terribly shy and might take out the eye that spotted him. His design is based on the Lagnö runestone of a man holding two snakes. Modernize that with a bun and some duster or whatever and bam! Elf

His friend is a less kindly sort, who makes no pretense at being helpful. He was killed, or so he thinks, ever so long ago. It's been so long he can't quite remember. Only shreds of his human remain, leaving only the dark, spiteful dwarf. He was buried in a bog that, these days, is currently an apartment complex. So he gets his revenge by seeping through cracks in the basement to terrorize the tenants. Whether he knows that they actually didn't contribute to the drainage of that bog and construction or not, he doesn't care. Not a friendly sort. His design is original, based loosely on some old armor.

To be honest, they're kind of jerks. One unintentionally, acting as only a supernatural demigod knows how, but still jerks. Catch them on a quiet night though, in a bar where they coddle their drinks like tenderly parents, and you might earn something that'd made the pain worth it...
