Wood Elf - Dungeons on Automatic Bestiary

Humanoid (Elf) · 1 hex · SM +0 Wood Elf [Monsters on Automatic, SRD coverage: humanoid folk and their sub-races; answers Wood Elf (SRD 3.5)]

The elves of standing forest: stronger and plainer than their highland cousins, and the best war archers of any of them. A wood elf settlement is invisible from the ground and has been there four hundred years. They are courteous, unhurried, and entirely willing to shoot a logging party at two hundred yards without a word first.

Notes

GCS ancestry draft: gcs/wood-elf.gct
Independent build total: 75 points of racial traits plus 36 points of racial skills.
Answers the SRD heading(s): Wood Elf (SRD 3.5). Only the creature identity is taken from the SRD; the GURPS statistics, ratings and prose are this project's own work and reproduce no SRD text.
Typical Stats, damage and ratings are derived from the racial template, not authored beside it, so the sheet and the stat block cannot disagree.
Body mass used to scale this build: 60 kg. ST, Size Modifier and DR are checked against it; see the gurps-animal-sanity-check skill for the bands.
Movement: ground Move 5 (primary). The published Move is the primary medium's cruising Move; sprint figures are stated here and not folded into it.
Treasure and grappling are not authored for this batch and ship as explicit nulls; `lair` carries a short habitat note, because where a wandering animal dens is an encounter fact rather than a loot one.
About 1.75 m standing, which is the SM 0 row.
ST 11: the sturdiest of the elves in this batch and the only one above human Strength, which is why it draws the heaviest bow here.
The elf stock's Health penalty is kept, unlike the wild elf's. A wood elf lives in a built settlement with a roof on it, and the frailty its cousins share is not something forest life removes.
The bow's literal dice are a step above the gray elf's for the same weapon class, because it is a heavier bow. That is the whole reason missile damage in this batch is stated rather than derived.

Independently authored GURPS build. The SRD supplies the creature identity this record answers to and nothing else: no SRD statistics, wording or presentation is reproduced, and no third-party GURPS conversion was used as an input.
Answers the SRD heading(s): Wood Elf (SRD 3.5).
Racial template: 75 points across 12 traits, plus 5 racial skill(s) worth 36 points.
Every trait is drawn from the project's controlled GURPS vocabulary in scripts/srd/trait-library.mjs, which carries the page reference and published cost for each entry.
sourceSystem is recorded as doa_fixture because that is the package contract's value for project-authored material; the SRD headings this record answers are in provenance.coversSourceIdentities.
Ratings are recomputed through the consumer CER path on every build, so a mechanics change cannot leave a stale rating behind.
