The various elven subraces are more prominent in the "Forgotten Realms" campaign setting, and Faerûn boasts several major subraces. They differ physically from typical "Dungeons & Dragons" elves in that they are as tall as humans (5′9″ on average), or even taller. The exception are the Drow, who are of standard "D&D" elven height. In Faerûn, surface elves call themselves Tel-Quessir which means "The People" in the elven language. In 4th edition, most of the elven subraces were classified as drow, eladrin or elves.
