'Silver elf player characters can take the standard racial adjustments, or take a -1 penalty to Wisdom, rather than Constitution, to reflect their poorer judgment and hardier physique.' - Elves of Evermeet

There are so many little details in the sourcebooks I forget or overlook. 'Poorer judgement' you say...

('Hardier physique' translates to: Moon elves got rid of the constitution malus by building stamina and forging livers of iron with all the raves, late night dance parties, 'outrageous flirting,' and hard drinking. A moon elven upbringing does not prime one for sensible life choices. Or a concentration span. Act on impulse now: think later)

#The conversation you can have with Astarion when you drop the monastary on his head lives in my head forever #'Take the mace!' he says #'the full concentrated power of tHE S U N.'#There are so many bad judgement moments but that's The One #I mean sure he's been locked up and denied choices for 200 years and that's not helping but it's still spectacular to behold #I maintain that at least some degree of his lack of judgement/risk-assessment is just him #/astarion #lore stuff #pointy eared stuff
