How does Dark Elf as a race stack up against alternatives?

[Nagoya]

You'll loot a Guise like everyone else and end up a Dark Elf anyway, no?

But as most have said, race is not important for Magicians, all available races can do it. So choose your favorite FashionQuest is my advice.

As a former Halfling Druid tho, I'll say that racial Hide is nice. Safest AFK tool after FD. But it's just that, nice. No deal or break there. For example, if I start a druid on Green it would be Human.

Good luck!
