Grey elves were an elven species midway between high elves and deep elves, though generally closer to deep elves. They were competent at using Short Blades, Long Blades, and bows, but were poor at other fighting skills and had little durability. Their magical aptitudes were generally excellent, particularly in Air Magic, but they had little talent for Necromancy and Earth Magic.

-They were something of a midpoint between [[High elf|high elves]] and [[Deep elf|deep elves]]: virtually all of their aptitudes, as well as their HP and MP, lay between those two races', although they tended to be somewhat closer to those of deep elves.  The one notable exception was [[Air Magic]]: out of all the types of elves, they had the most talent for that.
