An oddly specific and [[Older Than They Think|not-so-recent]] phenomenon. For some reason, certain Space Elves tend to manifest as an [[Always Female]] [[Green-Skinned Space Babe]] with [[Psychic Powers]]. Sometimes known as "blue hotties", they're more likely to be [[Good Colors, Evil Colors|blue than green]].<ref>Possibly because of the "[[Little Green Men]]" stigma about [[Sci Fi Ghetto|science fiction]], and the fact that green skin is more likely than blue to look like you have a horrible fungal infection.</ref> Sometimes they are part of a [[Matriarchy|Sexy Matriarchy]]. Examples of "Type B" need not be listed separately, but are worth noting where found: e.g. Type 1-B [http://well-of-souls.com/outsider/outsider050.html here] or Type 2-B [[Avatar (Film)|here]]. It is a reoccurring theme in several works and universes that all seem to be referencing [[Homage|each other]].
 
Compare the '''[[Rule of Three|Three Types of Proud Race Guy]]:''' [[Proud Scholar Race Guy]] (usually [[Space Elves]]), [[Proud Warrior Race Guy]] (posssibly [[Elves Versus Dwarves|Space Dwarves]]) and [[Proud Merchant Race Guy]], [[Space Amish]] or [[Space Romans]] who may in fact be standard ordinary people [[Earth -That -Was|in a diaspora]] situation, thus occupying a [[Hobbits|middle position]].
 
'''<small>Note: Type II Space Elves are also Type II examples of [[Proud Scholar Race]].</small>'''
 
<small>''This is a [[Super -Trope]] discussing references to [[Space Elves]] in various tropes, including: [[Our Elves Are Better]], [[Proud Scholar Race Guy]] (Type II), [[The Fair Folk]] and/or [[The Greys]]. Examples of each type would also fall under such other tropes.''</small>
