Erevan plays a Zhensh based character and could give you Zhensh events.
While this is true, I know very little about zhensh history events other than what is written in books.
Anyway, as elves are and have been my favorite race in any rpg setting for the last 10 years, I thought I might share my thoughts.
Elf RP... It is a tough race to play as you start out, as you do indeed have 100 years behind you.
A usual excuse for those 100 years is that the elf in question lived a secluded life in the forests of his/her birth, not being let in on much about the outside world. For Linarumien, it was the libraries of Elisair.
About elf growth: There is no official SK side to this (and I do feel like there should be, to clarify things), but most elves I have met, and all elves I have played, grow at nearly the same rate as humans, and then take that much longer until they are considered 'adults' by their own society.
Reference for this is the 2nd edition dnd book 'complete book of elves', and Tolkien's version of elves.
One thing I keep in mind is that elves in general do not 'change', or adapt easy. Imagine that it takes an elf ten times the time it would take a human to change his demeanor. A stubborn elf is likely to remain stubborn, an immature elf likely to remain immature, an elf that talks too much will continue to talk too much, and so on.
I play elves, unlike any other race in sk, nearly 'complete' as characters, at creation. They've learned the ups and downs of life, they've shaped their personality, they've matured, and so on.
That's it from me, in a nutshell.
