Altmer, more commonly referred to as High Elves, hail from the island of Summerset, which is southwest of the Tamriel mainland. Summerset Isle was also once the location of Artaeum, the headquarters of the mysterious and powerful Psijic Order. That being said, Altmer have a tendency toward the arcane arts. They can learn and use different magicks much easier than the other races. The reason for this inane proficiency is unknown, although some speculate that it may have to do with the island itself. Altmer start out with fifty more magicka points than the other races. Their Highborn power, usable once per day, allows them to regenerate magicka twenty-five times faster for sixty seconds. They get plus ten to illusion spells, and plus five to the following spell classes: alteration, conjuration, destruction, enchanting, and restoration. They also start out with an additional spell called Fury. Altmer have golden skin that shines beautifully in the sunlight, and yellow eyes that dimly glow. Their hair color is shades of gray, white, and silver, and the hair itself is thin and light. Altmer tower over the other races, with reports of both genders having before reached a height of six-foot-eight, although most tend to be a couple of inches shorter than this.
