History
History: Daisy is one of the commercial Chossum elves, versed in the ways of money and business. The Night Run Laundry, while functioning as a legitimate business serving all areas of Alfheim Town, also serves as the distribution point for the elven equivalent of the dole, the system whereby civilization-shocked elves may obtain the subsistence needed to survive in the town.
Personality
Personality: Daisy is a typical Chossum elf, with all the characteristics attributed to her clan by popular stereotype. She is concerned with numbers, piasters, ducats or gelava – gold by any name, and has very little of the spirit of joyful living common amongst the elves of the forest. In this respect, she is not much different from the dwarves and humans encountered by the former adventurers she serves, and so is acceptable to them where a proper elf would be easily offended by her attitude. In her own way she is as civilization-shocked as they are.
Appearance
Appearance: Daisy is a thin, pale elf, with rare grey colored hair. She wears a sour expression and clean, well-mended, clothing of the most starkly-plain cut imaginable.

GM Section
DMing Notes: Daisy is a useful contact for any elf needing to talk to the dwarves, as many of that race find her the most sensible and approachable elf in town. She is also a good place to start when looking for a former adventurer elf.

The Chossum clan is firmly in favor of outside contact and progress, as long as they can turn a profit. Some more conservative elves call the Chossums the “dwarves of Alfheim”, their love of money and desire for a good business deal seem decidedly unelvish. Others think them a regression to the ways of the elves of the southern continent, from whom Ilsundal led his immigration.
Most of the wandering traders who go from clan to clan with hard-to-get food-stuffs, weapons, and wearing apparel are members of the Chossum clan. The Chossums are wheelers and dealers. Clan leaders have proposed that major trade roads be built into Alfheim from Corunglain and Selenica and even the Rockhome mountains, so as not to stifle trade by focussing it through the Darokin road.
The Chossums resent the Erendyl position as ambassadors to Glantri, they feel that the Erendyl ambassador has no concept of Alfheim’s trade needs. There is talk of Shadowelf infiltration of the Chossum clan, but this is regarded as the idle gossip of folk from clans who don’t understand true entrepreneurial spirit.
Clanmaster Lynnwyll is in favor of anything that puts elven products in the markets of the world, and the world’s gold into Clan Chossum’s pockets.
Converting Chossum Elves in BECMI to 5th Edition – Elves split their advancement from a martial class and a spellcasting class for the first ten levels, then dedicate themselves to either the martial or the spellcasting class for the Letter advancement starting at C and going to M. Chossum elves prefer Paladin and Cleric as their match.
