Are you insane? Shaving sucks! The elves are blessed.

Shaving is easy

Says the guy who obviously has never shaved anything other than his face.

Shaving does indeed suck.


I think you should be going after the priestesses instead. Everyone knows the templars are just drugged up Chantry footsoldiers.

That firstline was wierd. First of all shaving the either place if completely different for me and you ( i hope). You scare me.

My point was that as someone who has to shave her legs and such every couple days. I'm allowed to complain about how annoying it is.

And the reason why you don't mind it is since you obviously have never shaved anywhere else.


Damn elves. They don't need to shave. /jealous

I may have a perverse mind but it did not sound like you were referring to leg hair.

Who agrees with me that elves need beards?
All hail elven soul patches!
With beards we elves could rule thedas!

Yes to males having facial hair, no to females.  I personally wouldn't mind having facial hair on my male elves, looking similar to either the Egyptian braid beards, or something like what Marco Hietala is sporting.  That or go with the Confucious look.  Catfish whiskers?  Yes please!

I play as an elf too and I would never put a bear in my elf, but I think that could be an option for who likes it...



I think they can't have them because elfes are mytical creatures that dispite having one bigger sex, they allways have a big connection to both sexs so they allways have meterosexual features.

David Gaider already said no elf beards. Which is a good thing. Why Sarel has stubble, I have no idea, but according to Gaider, Dragon Age elves cannot grow facial hair.

Sarel seems to have some real issues with human arrogance. I imagine it angered him that humans had manly beards, so he set out to magically grow one for himself... but, being an elf, there was only so much magic could do.

next thing we know you're gonna try dividing by zero, causing the DA universe to implode. the Confucian style kinda beards and such, maybe, but that's stil really dubious to me.

and besides, a lead writer (the lead writer? sorry man, don't know...), has said no beards.

[Caozen]

Most of the hair options for male elves range from pretty boyish to downright disturbing. How in the world could you suggest beards?

[Curlain]

 There is a problem you haven't considered.  With the elves being vertically challenged in this setting, if we added beards as well they could end up looking like Santa's little helpers 

And no one wants that

But why not? Why must they all be strictly metrosexual? Humanity has genetic differences that lead to huge changes in physical form and development. Why cant out elf be unique in the fact he is completely masculine? This does suggest a male elf could have female parts aswell however if he became unique.

I questioned this myself a while back, and also was the one to aquire an answer from David Gaider pertaining to elves and beards. My original version of the City Elf mod had stubble, but after this comment, V2.0 removed all stubble:

Elves do not grow facial hair -- period.



For one, I think the elves already look a bit too "human" as it is.
I think we'd want to distinguish them *more* from "humans with pointy
ears" rather than *less*, to be perfectly frank.

On a personal note, given this information, I still play my Elf with stubble. I just consider him a weird genetic anomaly.

1. I dont get the first bit, you cant divide by zero.

2. The lead writer could change his mind. Elves evolve and masculinity and femininity became more defined in elves

the first thing is an internet joke, and yes, Gaider could change his mind, but how likely do you think that is? and elves are (can be) plenty different between genders. and Stippling's quote of Gaider that says elves would start becoming too similar to humans is a very good point. I play elves to play elves, not to play shorter humans.

[Herr Uhl]

Why should they have beards? I think they should all have no hair at all and be blue, but that isn't going to happen either.

[yasuraka.hakkyou]

My point isn't that with beards, their poverty would go away, or anything like that. it was mainly that with beards available, the elves would essentially be shorter humans in appearance. and if you want to be a bald blue person, go play Oblivion. I'm not sure if it has beard options, though, since I almost never made a guy...

if you're disappointed with DA's elves, why do you play DA when other similar games will give you the options you want?

anyone else thinking this thread is ridiculous / liable to be locked / etc?

I am trying to picture that..and I just can't lol.    But I guess its possible.

[Khayness]

Our brains couldn't have handled the awesome sight of Zevran with a pimp moustache. I have to agree with David Gaider on this one. No facial hair on elves.

Half-elves have beards in different fantasy settings, but we don't see many of that either. Only one.

[yasuraka.hakkyou]

ha, zev with a pimp 'stache...that's awesome and disturbing lol.

[Nhadalie]

Lol @ everyone being perverts.

And ew about chest hair on females. No thank you.

And I can't wax, I have sensitive skin. That and it kinda scares me a little bit.


Zevran with a pimp moustache would be epic though.

beards fit for humans, and I can barely imagine dwarf without one, even though there are few pretty nice ones in Orzammar (note: they have stubble). But elves...





No.
