To change your race from Human to Elf you must do the Elven Heritage Quest.  This quest starts at the Lycaeum in Moonglow, located on the north/west tip of the island.

Darius the Wise: Here you must talk to Darius the Wise, who will instruct you to seek out six quest givers and do the quest each offers. Once you have completed these quests you return to Darius. Before you head off it is worth while to obtain the following items which you will need on your way to complete the quests: a pitcher of water and 20 raw fish steaks.




You may do the quest givers in any order, most quests are not dangerous, other than roaming spawn, and any character may complete them.  The only 'fighting' you need to do is to kill timber wolfs, so your character must be capable of doing this.  A crafter's giant beetle is able to dispatch one of these as long as your crafter can heal it.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Arielle the Pixie: Arielle is located north from Spirituality Moongate in Ilshenar, follow the directions below. (note: the alternate location for Arielle on Felucca facet is at sacrifice shrine) Left clicking on Arielle will open the quest gump which will ask you to collect three baubles from around the flowstone area you are in.  Walk around the area and pick them up (pressing ctrl-shift to see the object handles will make them easier to find).  Once you have three, left click on yourself and select toggle quest item and target the baubles in your pack to turn them orange. Return to Arielle, left click her again and she will take your baubles and you have completed this part of the quest.




Bravehorn the Stag: Bravehorn is located south of the Hedgemaze. Click on him to accept the quest and he will ask you to escort him to a drinking pool which is to the south east of the maze and north east of your starting position. Once at the pool he will advise you have completed this part of the quest.




Enigma the Sphinx: Is located in the desert south of Compassion Shrine, click on him to obtain the quest.  The answer to his riddle is 'a pitcher of water', so he will require the pitcher of water from you.  Toggle the pitcher as a quest item and click him again to complete the quest.  This area has a lot of spawn so if you are a crafter character you may need to cast invisibility, take a few invisibility potions, or just be very quick in and out!




Huntsman the Centaur: Located to the south/west of dungeon Wrong and north of Compassion shrine, click the Huntsman to accept the quest. He will require that you kill 20 timber wolfs which abound in the area around him.  Note, the wolf and the Huntsman must be in the same screen for the 'kill' to count, so once you kill the ones closest to him you may need to drag the others in closer by tagging them in war mode and drawing them within sight of the Huntsman. Once you have killed the required 20 this part of your quest is complete.




Maul the Bear: Is located a few screen west of the entrance to wrong dungeon, north of where you located the Huntsman.  Click on Maul to accept the quest and he will require the 20 raw fish-steaks.  Toggle the steaks as a quest item and click him again to complete the quest.




Strongroot the Treefolk: In this quest Strongroot will require you to provide him with some 'Sap of Sosaria' so it is an idea to go and fetch this before heading to him for the last part of the quest.  The sap is located in the area by a large Yew tree south of Yew Moongate as indicated on the map below. Pressing ctrl-shift as you run around the area will provide the object handle (name bar) which says 'Flask' and looks like lime green potion pot. Pick one of these up and head to Strongroot. These flasks maybe stored so if you are converting a few characters you may pick up a few of these to save going back. They respawn quickly although you would need to move around to find the newly spawned sap.

Strongroot is located to the south east of Shame Dungeon and the Blighted Grove (Melisande Peerless Dungeon).  Click on him to accept the quest then toggle the 'Sap of Sosaria' as a quest item and click him again to complete.




Return to Darius: now you have completed the six quests return to Darius. Darius will extol your virtues for having completed the quests and will ask you to remove all items of 'earthy' wear.  You need to dismount and strip your character completely, including all footwear, clothing, armour and jewelry. Once completely naked you will be offered a character selection gump to choose new hair and skin colour for your new race and once accepted your body will be transformed.  Note, this often 'times out' while you are in the middle of selecting. If so just move away from Darius and return to him and he will give you the 'spiel' again.  Once you have converted, the attributes assigned to the Elf race are now with you.  You may return to Human form by completing the Elf to Human Quest, however this is a lot more difficult for crafter characters, so before converting your crafter make sure an Elf is what you wish to be!


Have Fun Questing!
