I am in search of Elf-specific Prestige Classes. These are the ones I already know of:

Arcane Archer (Dungeon Master's Guide)
Bladesinger (Complete Warrior)
Champion of Corellon (Races of the Wild)
Darkwood Stalker (Complete Warrior)
Master of the Yuirwood (Unapproachable East)
Ruathar (Races of the Wild)
Wild Runner (Races of the Wild)

Are there any others out there? Does anyone have some homebrew Elf PrC's?

Here are a few that I think are either exclusively elven or are affiliated with elven organizations. These are from Faerun btw, and I can't guarantee the list is complete.

- Justice of Weald and Woe (Champions of Ruin): okay, technically it doesn't specify a race - IMO a typo, since it's both a racial avenger like the whisperknife in its concept and it's affiliated with a strongly racist organization - the Eldreth Veluuthra
- Olin Gisir (Lost Empires of Faerun) -
- Evereskan Tomb Guardian (Player's Guide to Faerun) - half-bloods need not apply
- Elven High Mage (Races of Faerun, epic)
- Spellsinger (Magic of Faerun), requires at least 1/8 elven blood so I don't know if it would qualify

If we count drow as elves:
- Drow Judicator (Underdark)
- Arachne (Faiths and Pantheons)
- Sword Dancer (Faiths and Pantheons) could be extended to surface elves as Eilistraee is imo accepted by the Seldarine - and the few elves that know of her.
- Yathrinshee (Player's Guide to Faerun, vile)

It is interesting to note that according to races of faerun, centaurs qualify for the arcane archer prc...;)

Possibly... I guess the limitation is mostly social, not racial (i.e. the problem finding someone to teach, not that only elfbloods could learn it). Say, I definitely see fey arcane archers, like pixies. They have some darn good arrows anyway ;) In general, fey will probably qualify for quite a few elven PrCs as the two cultures (supposedly) are on very friendly terms.

Hmm, that brings the topic of half-fey elves... except for the con minuses, that's scary. Half-fey wild elves, for example, can probably be quite powerful - especially if LA buyoff is allowed.

from the Tome of Battle, the Eternal Blade, IMO the coolest PrC in the book.

Oh yeah. Also, I think Seekers of the Misty Isle (CDiv) had to be elven, too.

I had forgotten about that one.

No one has any homebrew Elven PrC's? Perhaps I'll have to just create my own, then.

Well, afaik there are more if you include homebreweds, but imo those are enough compared to what, say, halflings get, and of course they can qualify for most others. What kind of a PrC do you want to have anyway?

Mostly just trying to gather as much Elf material as I can find. Elves are my favorite race.

Though, in particular, I'm curious if there's any arcane spellcasting PrC that combines music and magic; like something that combines wizardly and bardlike abilities while keeping a decent spellcasting progression. I know there's the Bladesinger in CW, but it's more of a martial class. I'm more wanting just a mage that uses music to enhance his magical abilities. The Spellsinger might actually be what I'm looking for (if I had MoF...).

It depends on what magic is in your campaign, really. It might be that bardic music is just that - after all, it's supposed to "come" from their musical effects (which is why afaik all bard spells have verbal components), so in this case the sublime chord would be the archmage of such music. Other than that, though, afaik the spellsinger is a good choice. I must apologize, though: it's from Races of Faerun, not Magic of Faerun (I was apparently confusing it with the spelldancer - don't ask).

If you want music and spellcasting, try Lyric Thaumaturge from Complete Mage. Not elfy, but it makes bard into a better caster.

I do not approve of Elves.

Either Lords of Darkness of Champions of Ruin--I forget which, has the Darkmask of Vhaerun PrC, again if we're counting drow. Similarly, the PGtF has a Ghaunadaur-themed Vile PrC.

The Book of Exalted Deeds has the Skylord for which you have to be Elven or Half-elven.

I don't know why I don't mention this thread in all of my posts, seeing as it's the greatest thread I ever contributed to. (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=692629)

EDIT: Let's not make too much of a deal out of this. I made a simple statement that was horribly out of place, and could be construed as baiting (please don't report me :weep: ). I'll resort to lurking and try to divert the attention away from my first post when necessary.

Doesn't Ruather have a specifically no elves allowed rule? Since it's a class for in-game elven fanboys and girls.

Elves can take it, too.

"I'm so awesome! I can run up walls while shooting stuff and then do a backflip and pull out my knives and slash stuff and then I can cast all these awesome spells and then I can be all beautiful and foxy and seduce all the ladies (even though I'm totally gay) and then I can dance in slow-motion while snow falls on my pretty, blonde hair and then I can write some emo poetry!"

No, offense to homosexuals or blonde-haired people.
