That character sounds kind of similar to the character I made for a playtest of 5th edition: A noble high elf wizard named Sir Prissy von Wellington III. I don't think I need to elaborate any further - his background, class, race, and name should indicate exactly the kind of personality he had. I'm pretty sure he was much more arrogant and irritating than your elf wizard.

The session was just a one-shot thing since the group was only in town for the weekend, and the DM had only briefly skimmed the pre-made playtest campaign. We ended up just winging it and fighting some random mobs to try out the new combat mechanics instead of sticking with the module. I made sure to spend a full round of combat running away from an ooze and shouting, "You people are absolutely insane if you think I'm going to touch that thing!"
