Even the Trailer Trash Elves from the CAS who can barely keep their mobile homes from falling apart?

Now I'm trying to recall the percentage of Elves in the CAS. I know it's low, but not *how* low.

...

TO THE BOOKS!

Not low enough that I'm sure there's some in Trailer Parks being White Trash.  ;D

Hell, the idea of Redneck Elves back home is hilarious.

According to Shadows of North America (2062), 4% of the CAS population were elves. That's the second lowest percentage (after Tsimshian 2%), the average in North American countries being around 10%. With 4.2 millions elves, it nonetheless is the second largest elven population in North America (18.9 millions elves in the UCAS, 4.0 millions in Tir Tairngire).

Redneck elves are far less dangerous than their cousins, redneck trees.

Redneck trees...oh geez.  I do wonder if such things are possible in the Sixth World though.

Wanted to say that I really like the artwork in the book, especially Harlequin's pic. Harlequin went from character I didn't really care about to guy I definitely want to see more of in future works. I had the exact opposite reaction to /dev/grrl. The write up of Kane was half about her and since she was the poster, it made her look very self-centered and egotistical IMHO. Also; I thought Slamm-O! was suppose to physically fit and attractive? I guess he really let himself go after he found out Netcat was preggers.  :D

Thank you!

My personal feeling was that there were more ELves in the CAS, but the wealthier ones bugged out when Tir na Nog opened up, then there was a second exodus when Tir Taingire was created... each one drew Elves out of the CAS, which was openly racist. Quite a few other metas also left, but the ELves were wealthier, so more of them made it out. The tuskers found that the road wasn't quite so welcoming. (Troll hitchhiker vs Elven gal ... which one gets to Portland first?)

Interesting to see that there are more Elves in the CAS than in the Tir, however.

Oh, it could be worse, and my brothers below the Mason-Dixon will weep upon reading this.
