[@Willy Vereb]The tiny island to the far west you have tried to claim is me. Back foul beast!!

Though we are also Elvish, so welcome to the family.

[@Willy Vereb] Azurei is also Elvish. A kind of dark skinned, tribal, desert nation. It'd be interesting to see how we interact, especially if your elves have a very different culture.

I don't wish to infringe upon your ideas so it's possible I'll go for a different species.
My elves tend to be physically frail but naturally dexterous and agile. Their longevity and love for life also make them appear cowardly by the standards of other races and prefer raids and ambushes rather than facing their enemy head on. They have troubles to recruit their kin to fight as melee infantry, for example.
If we can chalk these up mostly to cultural differences and subspecies shenanigans I would be fine with it. If not then my species would be the elf-like but more obscure Yelinor who live up north and while has some familiarity with elves they are another species.


EDIT: I also wish to include some fantastical elements that are usually important to form my nation the way they are. First being a lightweight metal which is somewhat worse than steel and more difficult to work with. Basically think of "mithril" but way less powerful and relatively common. My elves have aversion to iron (especially when cold-forged) and due to their light bodies they require lighter weapons and armor so a fantasy metal is preferable. 
If your elves wish to have similar "light metals" as their common material then I am completely fine with it. If not, I can have "Tinchel" (metallic ice) which would be my iron replacement. 

Another element I haven't seen for other nations is the flying mounts. I have a prominent force of air cavalry which might be a minority of my army but their importance would be still considerable. 
Would they be fine? Think of Griffins or giant birds. They would have bird like characteristics which means they are fragile and have stricter weight limits and there are numerous nuances which does force them in the range of archers when fighting but this is still a matter I'd want to get cleared on by the GM.
