As I mentioned, all of the characters who took part on the Elf Game gain a +1 social level when dealing with elves and are named "Elf Friends". This means that can expect hospitality and welcome from any elven lands. Hannok also gives each a special, magical acorn to plant "in time of great need -- wait and help will come" as well as a cloak-broach (think LoTRs, 400gp) to identify the PCs. Each hero also has the thanks and support of Hannok (Druid of Rillifane Rallathil) and Mirquin (High Priestess of Corellon Larethian) if they ever need it.
Hannok, Mirquin, and the wood elves of the entire Vesve Forest spread the names and deeds of the heroes. In a world without TVs and VCRs, figures are known by their tale-tell descriptions and their reputations. This is what the elven community, especially the northern wood elves, tell of the heroes of Fangoria:
[glow=red,2,300]Ael'Mara Saes[/glow]wood elven ranger / cleric of Corellon -- prime mover of the rescue mission, honorable local-boy-turned-hero, acolyte and ally of Mirquin herself and well-versed in drowic lore -- granted the title: Champion of Fangoria (+1 SL, 16 min, since he's now minor elven nobility)
[glow=red,2,300]Darya Swiftfoot[/glow]high elven thief / mage -- spunky, cocky, and brave, with red eyes (sometimes) and a knack for noticing what's going on, fairly stylish -- granted access to a variety of elven spells both to defend the forest and for her own amusement.
[glow=red,2,300]Cliffy Swiftfoot[/glow]high elven thief / mage -- smart, quiet, Darya's brother, and known to Hannok already -- granted access to a variety of elven spells to defend the forest.
[glow=red,2,300]Zevi[/glow]wood elven fighter / thief -- silent, tough, tenacious, a little vicious, very knowledgeable about drow -- granted a drowic piwafwi, boots, +3 long sword, short sword, and dagger which will recharge IF RETURNED TO THE UNDERDARK
[glow=red,2,300]Doby[/glow]strange high elven archer -- raised in the far-off land of Shou Lung, somehow helped save Oerth, uses strange kicks in combat as well as super-elven leaps -- granted help in restoring his COMPLETE memories, both being with the New Heroes and growing up again at the monastery in Shou Lung
[glow=red,2,300]Kennibrae Zajalyra[/glow]drow ranger / cleric of Eilistraee -- teenage princess-turned-priestess, escaped the drow city of Erelhui-Cinlu (the same homeland as Mirquin), happy, bright, joyful, loves music and dance -- granted a place and support for a temple to the Dark Maiden in the heart of Fangoria
[glow=red,2,300]Aslan[/glow]lion -- Kennibrae's animal companion -- granted color spell so he has permanently black fur with a white mane, and dark-rose eyes (like Kennibrae)
[glow=red,2,300]Shannar[/glow]drow fighter -- quiet, determined, devoted to Kennibrae, fearsome in combat, uses strange curved blades like a naamar -- granted lessons from Mirquin on how to be a drow (and maybe seduce Kennibrae with a little drowic massage?)
[glow=red,2,300]Gamoth of Ki[/glow]human Druid of Ki -- member of the Eastern Circle, lusty, somewhat wild, animal-druid, protective of his charges (Ash, Ramu, and Nikaris), easy-going, friendly, helped resurrect Mirquin nearly two decades ago and has adventured with her since then -- granted a special acorn ONLY HE can use: once it grows large enough for him to fit inside, he may transport via plants with it back to Fangoria (in 3 years with plant growth)
[glow=red,2,300]Ashtabular[/glow]tigress -- Gamoth's constant companion, slayer of the dragon Drandavar as well as numerous giants, trolls, demons, and mind flayer, can do some limited spells, beloved by Mirquin -- granted access to some lesser spells
[glow=red,2,300]Ramu[/glow]male grizzly bear -- Gamoth's animal friend, beloved by Mirquin -- granted a bath, a good brushing, a flower garland, good game, and lots of attention
[glow=red,2,300]Nikaris[/glow]male black jaguar -- Gamoth's animal friend, intelligent, capable of speech -- granted elvish lessons
[glow=red,2,300]Slee[/glow]male lizard man fighter / mage -- can fly at will, huge, strong, tough, crafty, very old, leader of a nation of lizard men near Greyhawk, deep dark green, inhuman, intelligent, helped resurrect Mirquin nearly two decades ago -- granted a special acorn ONLY HE can use: once it grows large enough for him to fit inside, he may transport via plants with it back to Fangoria (in 9 years since he's Large)
[glow=red,2,300]Ethan Ravensbury III[/glow]male beastman fighter -- kind, polite, green-and-black-striped furred naamar-like man, once was human noble, nearly immune to magic -- granted the secret of personal rebirth and permission to seek it out when the Apocalypse ends
[glow=red,2,300]Thera[/glow]human cleric of Hades -- creepy, sexy, devout, good at chanting, can see dead spirits, somehow helped save Oerth with Doby -- granted lots of bling-bling (1,000gp of gems and jewelry of her choice)
[glow=red,2,300]Andorallan[/glow]human fighter -- strong, tough, protective of Thera, fierce in battle, sometimes a little crazy, also somehow helped save Oerth with Doby -- granted an enchanted spear of livewood (+2, +3 vs undead and can "regrow")
(Assume all of this information is known to any elven PC from the Vesve, Highfolk, or the general region)
Each PC also gains 1900xps for mission accomplished. A full share of eeps was 24,553 xps, although Cliffy only got 7846xps, Andorallan 22,988xps, and Slee, Thera, and Doby 12,650xps
