While pretty much all known species of elves are known for their phaysical slenderness, desert elves tend to be the most frail of all...
...Save for Maybe the Fabled Mist Elves.
The Children of the Sand, as they are called by Man, invoke memories of the powerful windstorms of their homelands. The thinness of their frame gives way to their ability to literally dissolve into sand and blow away into the wind, which is used as a quick means of transport and a to avoid traditional means of detection. This causes them to be one of the least trusted species of elves, even by other elven creatures.
This unrest is also met with respect, as the Sha'ketz (Their proper name) are bar none the best assassins in the world.
