Elf Beard

For a thoughtful discussion of elves with beards try this

Instead of a thoughtful discussion I'll give you a list of why Elves don't cut their beards off:

1. Doing so reduces their fighting ability to that of a magic user of the same level.
2. Doing so eliminates their ability to cast spells.
3. Little know fact: it's actually the beard that makes them resistant to ghoul attacks.
4. As above, but sleep and charm spells.
5. In addition to reaching 9th level, an Elf must have a beard in order to establish a stronghold .
6. Because they're trying to pass themselves off as dwarves.

Elf PCs roll a D6, and disregard the result if they're lady-elves.
