Machine elves are described as tiny, humanoid creatures with large eyes and small, pointy ears. They have a metallic sheen to their skin and wear colorful, intricate outfits. They can have different hair colors, but often it is a bright, fluorescent color like pink or green. They are also said to have unusual facial features like large noses or prominent cheekbones. Some people claim to have seen them flying around in the air or even riding on top of each other like a stack of dominos.
