Santa Claus' little helpers. They vary from story to story, but they have a tendency to be short. How short and the reason for shortness varies. Some are so short they live in a Mouse World or they may just be 3 feet tall. They may simply be dwarfs (of the real life variety, not that kind), or they can be slow-aging and resemble children despite being Really 700 Years Old. They are cheerful and love working for Santa and are great with children. Other times, they are a mischievous and somewhat disgruntled work force griping about the Boss and hiding the beer at work and so on... They usually dress in bright green and other festive colors and wear pointed shoes and hats. Despite living in one of the coldest parts of the world, they seem very poorly dressed and are hardly ever seen with coats. Contrast this with their boss, who is hardly ever seen without his large red coat and boots. Of course, this is probably because Santa works outside, in the cold night air, while elves work inside, in the warm toy-factory. Santa himself is sometimes described as a "Jolly Old Elf" or implied to have elven blood. This trope can extend to other elves who do not follow the typical portrayals of a fantasy elf. Interestingly, Christmas Elves are not actually elves in all countries. For instance, the French version of the Santa Claus mythos calls them "lutins" (the most widespread type of Little People, essentially comparable to Leprechauns without the Irish stereotypes), as opposed to "elfes" (the French word for elves). Because of this, some European depictions of the elves, while generally similar to the American version, may exhibit dwarf-like beards that would look out of place on an "elf". An especially common, consistent version of Our Elves Are Different. A type of Little People. See also Christmas Town (where they live) and Santa's Sweatshop (for the cynical version). |

In Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Rudolph's best friend is an elf named Hermie who wants to be a dentist, making him a misfit like Rudolph. Notably a lot of the elves in this special are Ditto Aliensnote There are a couple of different models for males, but the females are all identical, presumably just for simplicity. | |

In the original 1939 story of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, a few of Santa's elves are seen helping him pack his sleigh before taking his annual Christmas Eve delivery. That same journey where he ends up meeting Rudolph as he's delivering his Christmas presents but quickly notices his glowing red nose as Rudolph's sleeping in bed. | |

Aqua Teen Hunger Force: According to the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past, elves are actually Martians enslaved by the primitive man-ape Santa Claws to fashion toys for him. Then they tried to unionize, so he replaced them with robots, leading to a war between the machines and the martians/elves that may have wiped out the martians/elves entirely... | |

Elf plays with the trope. These are the dwarf variety, and they take a human (Will Ferrell) into their numbers. He lacks the elfin magic, sucks at making toys, and isn't quite so cheerful as the other elves. He is still very efficient and cheerful by human standards, though. Deconstructed in that same film. As a human, he is unable to keep up with elfin energy, but humans are amazed that he builds things so fast, and only needs two hours of sleep. When he goes back to live with humans, he was so used to elfin naivete that everybody he meets takes advantage of him. According to the opening scene, the elves from The Elves and the Cobbler and the Keebler Elves also exist in this universe. And they are the only other ones—a reference to how this type of elf exists almost nowhere else in contemporary fiction. |

Santa's elves in The Guardians of Childhood are what remains of the former bandit's gang. When North and his men first entered the forest hiding Santoff Clausen, the forest spirit guarding the village only deemed North pure of heart and turned the rest of his gang to small stone figures. After the dust has settled after defeating Pitch soundly, North and the spirits restore the stony men to organic form, but they lost their height in the process. The elves do not actually build the toys, only testing them with Yetis being North's primary workforce. | |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998) Christmas special 'Twas the Fight Before Christmas' focused mostly on the girls' journey to the North Pole. But toward the beginning, when Princess originally breaks into Santa's workshop to see whether she's on the naughty or nice list, she has to evade the elves to prevent being discovered. They are short and wear bright colors, but act more like people than mindless Christmas spirits. Two even have a water-cooler conversation about whittling. | |

On Phineas and Ferb's first Christmas Episode, two elves show up in Danville to investigate when the entire town is inexplicably declared Naughty (due to Doofenshmirtz's Naughty-inator messing up their readings). Notably, the first few scenes of them were at the North Pole without any humans around, so the fact that they are only a few inches high was used as a humorous Reveal. | |

In Hogfather, the Department Store Hogfather has "Little Helpers" running around, and the myth is said to include elves who make the presents. However, as Albert points out, Discworld's Elves are very much not the cheery helpful sort; "You'd have to be a maniac to even think of giving an elf a chisel, less'n you want their initials carved on your forehead." Calling them "pixies" isn't much better, as the setting's pixies are tiny blue Violent Glaswegians more famous for stealing things than delivering them. | |

The Story of Santa Claus has them living at the North Pole before Nicholas Claus and his wife Gretchen arrive. The pair save the life of an elf child and get a wish; Nicholas wishes for his dream to deliver toys to every child in one night, and the rest of the special is him working with the elves trying to achieve it. (If they can't, they lose their magic, and Nicholas can't take the wish back once he realizes how hard it is.) The story ends with the two humans granted "honorary elf status" and the group deciding to do this every year. | |

Averted in Regular Show. In keeping with their Christmas Special's numerous references to The Lord of the Rings, Santa's elves are more of the High-Fantasy variety, being generally tall, lanky, gaunt, and in the case of the special's villain Quillgin, quite arrogant and full of himself. | |

Subverted in Futurama: Robot Santa has his headquarters on the polar ice caps of Neptune, and has enslaved the Neptunians, forcing them to work in his weapons factory. They are malnourished, thus their growth is stunted — making them Little People compared to the human-sized Neptunians seen elsewhere in the series. They are not happy at all, they live in horrible conditions, and they hate Robot Santa as much as everybody else does. They also all seem to be gay for no specific reason. | |

On Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, Santa's elves are in fact Little Green Men of the same species as those who work for the Space Rangers. Like their Star Command counterparts, these LGMs develop all sorts of hi-tech gizmos, this time to help Santa Claus deliver presents. | |

The Fairly OddParents!: In the Oh Yeah! Cartoons era, there was one episode where one of Santa's elves acted as a stand-in for Cosmo and Wanda. To Timmy's dismay, the elf couldn't grant any wish other than toys. They show up whenever the show proper had a Christmas Episode, though they were largely background. |

In Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town, Santa Claus was a Doorstop Baby raised by a family of elves called the Kringles, who named him Kris. Unlike in most of the other specials, these elves all look like short men with beards, except for their matriarch, Tanta Kringle. Kris was about as tall as them as a child and is about twice their height as an adult. | |

The Santa Clause trilogy featured elves played by child actors, though they are Really 700 Years Old. (Bernard, Santa's second-in-command, is noticeably taller and played by a teenager.) After meeting them in his "dream," Scott objects to the more "dwarf-like" interpretation of Christmas elves that his advertising company was going to use in a commercial. | |

Also subverted in a Saturday Night Live sketch in which Alec Baldwin plays a high-ranking Christmas elf who is eerily similar to Baldwin's character from Glengarry Glen Ross. ABC: Always Be Cobbling! There was another sketch in which a son "comes out" as an elf to his father, who then confesses that he too is an elf. |

In one particularly funny FoxTrot strip, we see the Head Elf from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer scolding "Herbie" the elf (actually, it's Hermey, but Bill Amend's not the first to make that mistake) about acting like a proper elf. "Elves don't do dentistry! Now hurry it up and get to Rivendell! Elrond's assembling a council!" The last panel shows the Fox living room with the TV announcer saying, "'Rudolph's Lord Of The Rings Christmas' will continue after these messages," and Peter, who's been watching, calling Jason in to see: "Hey, Jason! They used your idea!" | |

Critical Role: In "The Night Before Critmas" one-shot, all the player characters play a ragtag group of Santa's elves, the only ones not to get sick on Christmas Eve, who are forced to save Santa after he gets kidnapped. Has elements of Santa's Sweatshop since Klaus usually serves as one of the North Pole's bodyguards, implying he's killed people who have gotten too close to breaking The Masquerade, and Chutney, one of the elder elves, resents the change from wooden toys to electronics so much that he stabs Santa when given the chance. | |

Rather than use dwarfs, 1985's Santa Claus: The Movie cast performers 5'2" and under as its elves and used terraced sets to make the human characters appear taller than them. In a twist on this trope, these elves predate Santa Claus: they are all friendly adult, male immortals who love human children and create gifts for them from a base at the North Pole — but they need a human to deliver them (the Novelization explains that they used to do it themselves but as humanity grew and spread it became harder to pull off). The woodcutter/toymaker Claus fulfills the elves' prophecy of The Chosen One, and he and his wife Anya are spirited away to the North Pole and become Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus over the course of the movie's opening stretch. In the second half of the film, set in the then-present day, an elf named Patch (Dudley Moore) becomes central to the plot when his attempt to introduce mechanized mass production of toys to the North Pole goes wrong. He subsequently travels to the ordinary world to prove to Santa he can still be a great assistant — and falls in with an evil toy manufacturer (John Lithgow) who intends to use his talents to take over Christmas. | |

Get Santa has them played by dwarf actors and adds an interesting reason why the human protagonists are the ones Saving Christmas instead of them: The movie also features Warwick Davis as a normal human with dwarfism, whom Santa Claus initially mistakes for an elf. Later, when they are explaining to Tom's mom and stepmother about what's going on, he jumps in with "I'm not an elf." |

Sam & Max: Freelance Police 201: Ice Station Santa, set in Santa's workshop, naturally features a pair of them. They mention that they come from an "elf factory", but this just means they worked there. The factory still produced elves, though. They are kind of terrifying, too. Both in terms of physical appearance, and the fact that the one trying to water the tree with his tears is too damn cheerful to cry, in spite of the fact that he's under literal fire from an extremely paranoid Santa Claus. The third season reveals that Santa's evil ancestor Nicholas St. Kringle originally ran a sweatshop with humans, but later switched to elves, who worked for much cheaper. One of the elves was also bitten by an unknown creature and became a vampire. It should be noted that Santa himself, usually described as a "jolly old elf", subverts the trope; he's a cantankerous old sod who despises children. He even points out the Fridge Logic of assuming he likes children with his usual setup: He lives in the one place on Earth where there are no children, doing a job where he's only exposed to children one day out of the year, and they are not allowed to see him. |

An episode of Family Guy has Brian and Stewie travel to the North Pole to kill Santa. They arrive to a massive factory spewing toxic waste, and the elves are all suffering from mutation and inbreeding, resulting in creatures that can barely do anything and who do not even notice when a body part has been removed. Turns out the problem is the modern kids wanting too much with Santa desperately trying to meet the demand. | |

The Kingdom of Loathing has Crimbo elves. In general, they follow the standard definition of Christmas elves, in that they are shorter than most, toil away making toys, and live with Uncle Crimbo in his toy factory (in whatever incarnation both are in that year). The fact that they fought for union rights against Uncle Crimbo's strikebusting reindeer, took over Halloween once, were turned into half-cyborg creatures, were horribly mutated by lunar radiation, combined into a gargantuan monstrosity, were enslaved by the Penguin Mafia, were reduced to living as hobos with Uncle Crimbo, and were hired as miserable office workers for a soulless megacorporation are just minor details. | |

Sesame Street Christmas Episodes: In Elmo Saves Christmas, the elves complain that they're being overworked due to it being Christmas Every Day. Elmo's Christmas Countdown features an Ink-Suit Actor Muppet elf voiced by Ben Stiller, named Stiller the Elf. In A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa, the gang are greeted at the North Pole by Santa's Chief Elf, who unusually is not a Muppet, but Paul Williams. |
