Is he a copper elf (wood elf), or is he a Green elf (Wild elf)? With all the editions since the book and character were written, I'm just not sure anymore.

When Silver Shadows was written (1996), wood elf and wild elf were two words for the same thing. Green elf, copper elf, forest elf--more synonyms. But since then, the two have been redefined as separate sub-races, and according to the FR Wiki, the elves of the Wealdath are wood (copper) elves. Here's a reference:

Hope that helps!
