Half-elves can choose what race they resemble at character generation, either human, elf or half-elf. Note that this means you will appear as that race for assess -v and other in game tests of race.
If you run across something that seems weird with this change, please mail morgenes at armageddon.org.
Existing half-elves can submit a Character Related -> Stat Change request indicating that the race they want to appear as, ONLY if you don't want to appear as a half-elf. We will try and get it fixed ASAP.
Thanks
