Allies: All the half-elven gods and elven gods as well as Mielikki, Thor, Eilistraee, Ishtar, and Frey.
The hide can be used in the making of elven cloaks (although no elf would wear it, and would probably attack anyone he saw wearing it).
They tend to look after their elven friends and the cloven creatures of the woods (deer, elk, stag, etc.) If two are encountered, they are always a male and female.

 Our Campaign: Common Races of the Flanaess
A half-elfs' eye color is typically the same as that of their elven parent, and their ears have a slight point near the top, both of which are the biggest indication their elven heritage.
Elven myth holds that it was from his blood, shed in battles with Gruumsh (the god of the orcs) that the elves first arose.
Gnome clan names are combinations of common Gnome words, and gnomes almost always translate them into Common when in human lands (or into Elven when in elven lands, and so on).

 EN World - Morrus' D&D / d20 News & Reviews Site - Elven Samurai...
Each elven cleric might have their own personal god, for example.
As such, the idea of Elven Samurai appeals to my own inner vision of the ancient warriar class.
We have a xenophobic samurai elven culture in our campaign, but at this stage it hasn't progressed much further than a few hostile encounters at sea.

 Wizards Community - Gilthas is a Half-Elf?
There's enough human in him to dilute the elven blood sufficiently to have the half-elven traits apply to his character as opposed to the elven ones.
So...someone who was 5/8 human 3/8 elven would be considered human for all intents and purposes, but if they were 3/4 human and 1/4 elven then they were "half-elves." A ratio of 3:1 or less is required to have the traits of both parents (statistically speaking for DandD, of course).
I am glad that the write up states him as a half elf....I always suspected that the DLCS would have him as a full elf and that was disappointing to me, so I am happy it turned out as it did.

 The One Ring: The White Council :: View topic - Were the half-Elven immortal before they made their choice?
In the case of Elwing, her mother was a pure Elf and her father a Half Elven (of whom, for the sake of argument we shall state that it is was unknown what he was).
This is substantially different from having an Elvish mother and having a Father, who is half Man, 25\% Elf and 25 \% Ainu and of whom I would say his immortality is more likely than his mortality.
A half Elf (with immortal Maia blood only two generations away) coupled with a pure Elf (Nimloth) is more likely to produce an Elf than to produce a mortal, I hope you can agree to that.

 Non Humans
One feature that appalls humans outside the elven dominion is the tiend - every seven years the elvish rulers of a human area take a certain number of young humans for breeding, blood magic, or whatever they desire.
The elven language is fairly complex, especially in the existence of several parallel forms of many words for use in addressing superiors or inferiors, or in discussing the actions of one to the other.
Half elves are humans with elvish blood who are not fully elvish, although they could be very close - half is an estimate, not a rule.

Religion: Elven religion seems to be at the center of their mystery, and it is generally rumored among the other races that an elf who is asked of his religion is sworn to kill the inquisitive party.
Elven lands are heavily guarded, and it is generally assumed that any non-elf who attempts to enter them uninvited is an enemy.
Elven ears, of course, are taller and sharper than human ears and they have excellent hearing.

I grew up with my beautiful elven mother and her many lovely 'sisters', in a home on the outskirts of a large city.
Well, I could tell it was the druid from her face but her eyes were faceted and the lower half of her body was that of a large black spider.
The barrier of spinning blades was gone and the dark elven woman was asleep on her bed.

 Half-elven - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After the conclusion of the War of Wrath, Manwë determined that the surviving half elven would have their choice of fates: to be counted as Elves, and granted eternal life in the Undying Lands; or to be counted as mortals, and granted the ineffable Gift of Men.
The children of Elrond and Celebrian were also given free choice of kindred, and therefore Arwen could choose to be counted amongst the Edain even though her father had chosen to be counted as Elven.
It was a tradition in Dol Amroth that Imrazôr the Númenórean had married an Elf, and therefore the Princes of Dol Amroth were of Elven descent.

 Choice of the Half-Elven
The choice of the Half-Elven was given in the First Age to Earendil and Elwing, and their sons Elrond and Elros, not to mention the children of Elrond.
Though her Elven blood had made it impossible for her to cast away her body, she did have great power, power enough to put even Morgoth himself to sleep.
Dior then married Nimloth, another of Elven blood, and they had two sons, who were slain by the sons of Feanor, and a daughter, Elwing, who went on to marry Earendil.

In elven lands, the impact of such a system is not so very great, as half-elves live pitiably short lives compared to their elven relatives.
When people refer to "half-elven culture," they rarely mean anything more by it than a joke, and this is true whether the speaker is from the Elven Nations, the Turamzzyrian Empire, the depths of a dwarven city, or the height of an icy halfling outpost.
"Ill Wind, Ill Fruit" - This song comes from the elven city of Ta'Nalfein, where it was apparently discovered among the personal possessions after all members of a family were slain in an unpleasant accident.

 Half-Elves
While half-elves don't necessarily know the elven tongue, they pick up on the language more quickly than other non-elves.
Generations of warfare, adventure, and trade with the elven races, starting long before the Founder, has led to casual liaisons between elves and humans, and most of the half-breed offspring were sent to or remained in the human settlements.
The half-elf citizens, for their own part, alternately work to prove themselves to their human neighbors or ignore them (often both, in different stages of their lifetimes).

 The Bestiary
Due to their mixed heritage, Half-elves can sometimes be rejected from both Elven and human societies, but on the other hand they can often be accepted into both.
Half-elves may or may not have pointed ears and elven eyes, all of these factors depend upon the mixing of the genes.
MISC: Half-elves can be curious and soft-hearted like elves, or self-reliant and unpredictable like humans.

These two bloodlines are the only marraiges between an elf and a man. Because their ancestry was part elven and part man, a choice was appointed to Elrond and Elros by Eru.
Elladan and Elrohir are in a different situation - if they chose to share elven fate and wed elven maidens, their children too would have the choice.
Arwen chose mortality and wed a mortal, thus their children would not have the choice.

If roll-playing is your thing then you might have a point, but even then some fairly good arguments have been posted about the benefits of half-elves.
