Elves are small pointy-eared humanoid creatures that live in forests and have rarely appeared within the Smurfs cartoon and comics.
Physical Makeup[]
Elves share the same skin pigment and overall appearance as humans and are usually as tall or slightly taller than Smurfs. There are also green elves which are twice the size of a Smurf. Female elf children resemble fairies due to having bug-like wings on their backs and some individual imps are shown to resemble elves. There is also a different variety of elves known as woodelves who tend to the plant life within forests. Smurfs have also been mistaken for elves on several occasions.
