Obviously accidents, murders, illnesses would be able to kill them, but aren't they essantially immortal? No, it seems that most (if not all) elves (minus the the the Tribunal) in the Elder Scrolls Universe are just as mortal as other races (with the exception that elves have longer lifespans) unlike in LOTR (unless an elf contracts vamprism). High elves were once immortal, but Lorkhan took their immense life energies to create humanity, and maybe a few other species of elves too. not true: High Elves believe that Lorkhan did this, but it is never confirmed because elves considered themselves descendants of the Aedra but Lorkhan stole their immortal status. All which is unconfirmed
