OK, I was suddenly inspired while I was going through the threads in the fatasy fools usergroup, and I came across a thread explaining things about elves, when I came up with an awesome idea.
***
It starts out when a wind elf(basically, and elf with wings) is born. However, because his father is a water elf, the baby is deemed "genetically unclean" and he is placed in a basket and pushed out into the ocean, without even letting his mother see or name him. She does, however, drop a locket into the basket with him.
The nameless elf washes up nearby, taken in by a community of normal elves, and named Scarper, which means "lost". He grows up here, knowing that he is different, and that he was found somewhere around the forest.
Curiosity takes over, and he sneaks into the wind elf city. He fails to blend in, because he is half water elf, and his attempt to discover his story is halted. He finds a lead when he manages to check cases of births while he was on his way out of the jail. He discovers what happened to him and decides to return to his foster villiage.
When he rerturns, he tells this to his foster mother, and she tells him to find his mother. Scarper agrees and sets out in search of her. He knew from what he found out at the jail where his mother lives, so he goes to her house and explains everything. She is shocked, and doesn't believe him until he presents her with the locket she left with him when he was banished. From her, he learns all of the details of his story, and rage explodes towards the leader of the city. Scarper's mother decides to help him and secretly teaches him the wind elf's techniques in battle. He also learns wood elf techniques from the villiage he geq up in.
He decides that it is nessesary to learn everything possible, so he sets out to find his father. He knows that he likely settled down in the villiage about ten miles out to sea, and finds the villiage. It is now that he learns that he can breathe underwater. He searches the villiage, and based on what his mother told him, finds his father.
Scarper's father teaches him water elves' style of combat, and Scarper finally leaves to battle the leader of the wind villiage. The leader doesn't believe him when he says that he is the child that was banished, and the battle ensues.
After a while, the leader traps Scarper and tries to kill him, only to be met with a strange shield of energy. Scarper, while the leader fliches, manages to kill him.
It is after he manages to escape that he learns that the field was yet another genetic "defect" in him, a sign that he is part fire elf. However, there is no sign of a fire elf, or even a part fire elf, in his family tree. Confused, he returns to the wood villiage, only to find that it is under attack from the wind villiage. He manages to evacuate some children and his foster parents, but the rest of the villiage is destroyed. He takes them to the water villiage, and promises to return.
He flies away, knowing his next goal - finding out where he gets this fire energy from.

That has got to be the longest plot summary I've ever written. Well, what do you think?
