Elf

From LOTR-TCG Wiki

The Elf race is used exclusively by Companions and Allies in the Elven culture. Characters with the Elf race hail from nearly all of the possible places they could, including Rivendell, Lothlorien, Mirkwood, and the Grey Havens.

The Elf race is usually used in lieu of the culture when referencing characters, since there are no Elves outside the culture.

Various versions of Legolas make up a large portion of the Elf race in the Movie era, but not quite as complete a dominance as Gimli does for the Dwarf race.
