hey! whaddya mean nude fem elves! what about nude drizzt? i think you're safe, though; native american and some oriental races dont grow facial hair, but have other body hair. ...as far as i know.

If they don't have any body hair, they would all be bald! Elves have always traditionally been very close to nature, so being a little animalistic I believe would be acceptable. I think the are never depicted with facial hair is because of Tolkien and D&D.

You are half correct. AD&D elves had no facial hair. Tolkein elves had facial hair, especially beards, whihc they were quite proud of... not as proud as dwarves mind you, but in Tolkein fiction, it seems everyone had a beard and smoked a pipe...

Oops. I don't remember any LoTR characters having any facial hair

Elrond had a beard. So did a few of the elves, as well as Gandalf of course. =) Many of the minor characters, but few of the main characters.

Sorry, I sent that unfinished. I meant to say "elves having facial hair." Either way, I know what you mean, although I didn't see any references to Elrond having a beard. Thanks.

I think it mentions the beard in The Hobbit.
