Elves (Homo alfus, H. albus) are a species of hypercarnivorous cobalid (Tribe Hominini), characterized by their clear adaptations into reliance on brood-parasitism with various groups of humans, mainly in western Valsatbat, for survival. A large part of its distinctiveness can be attributed to the majority of humans having a natural fear of elves, though admittedly possessing many unusual traits among its closest relatives; being less sexually dimorphic than even humans, having both hexadactylism and arachnodactyly naturally, frequent but not exclusive quadrupedialism, favoring magic-negative anatomy over innate magic, and being the only truly arboreal member of ZE-1b's extant australopiths.
