Best Answer

In The Hobbit they are portrayed as rather silly, singing people. Elrond comes across as very learned and knowledgeable. Their serious side really doesn't come out until the Lord of the Rings.

Why did the elvish-looking folk disappear when the dwarves went running into their camp?

If you are referring to the book "The Hobbit," we aren't told exactly. We do know that elves and dwarves had a long-standing grudge against each other. But it does seem as if the elves were trying to trap them, or at least to create an excuse for taking them prisoner. The elves in "The Hobbit" were more like the elves in Celtic folklore - silly, tricky, deceitful little fairies - than the regal, mysterious elves in "The Lord of the Rings." Legolas was a Mirkwood elf, one of the people that the dwarves encountered in "The Hobbit," and was not considered the equal of the Lorien elves.
