1 Pick a secret name as your authentic name. Your real name is your human world cover name. For example, choose such names as Ellette and Elden for woodland, Moriel, and Morian for Dark elf, Fae.

2 Practice being quiet, mature, wise, convincing, slightly eccentric and eclectic. Contemplate philosophy quite a bit. Elves never say something unless they truly mean it, it makes sense, and they believe it with all their heart. They adore nature and everything it encompasses. They are also very in tune with the natural essence of things. They generally remain neutral in disputes, but will not hesitate to stand up and fight for what they believe in! Personalities can be hard to change (and they shouldn’t be, anyways), so if you are very talkative, then you can go for more a valley elf vibe like those of the Last Homely House in The Hobbit.

3 Be shy and mysterious at school. Don't give much information because you want to hide your identity.

4 Pretend to be curious about the human world. If there's a robotic toy, act interested––if you're an elf, you might not see these things much.

5 Keep a diary. Write down your life as an elf! Pretend to have tribe meetings and write it down too. Write traits of the 'humans' and phrases too.

6 Write down things "humans" do. When somebody tries to look at what you've written pull away then write something like, "Humans are very nosy." But nothing about a certain person, nobody wants trouble or drama!

7 Have a good sense of humor. If someone says, "Look at the rain! It's pouring!" Then look at the rain too, and say, "But the old man was never snoring. What kind of riddle is that anyway?" If people laugh, smile. But don't laugh along.

8 Make a tribe. Get some of our closest friends and show them this wikiHow article, and you can be a tribe.
