Dark elf

Dark elves are a race of elves originally native to the nation of Dökkálfar on Din.

Physiology
Like all Elves, Dark elves are distinguished by their pointed ears slender and athletic bodies.

Dark elf skin is pale blue in color while their hair is varying degrees of white or blonde.

Culture
Dark elves tend to be slightly conservative and distrustful of outsiders. Much of this is due to their wars against the Dwarves, the destruction of the homeland of Dökkálfar and their years of persecution.

Religion
Originally polytheistic, a majority of Dark elves follow a form of Augustism mixed with some of their own traditions.

History
According to the Light elves, the Dark elves are the descendants of "blood drinkers", elves who made a deal with the demon Fraebor in order to defeat their enemies: the Dwarves. However, those who drank the blood were corrupted by Fraebar's influence and driven insane. The Dwarves and the Light elves soon joined forces in order to end the Dark elf threat. After Fraebor was killed at the hands of Bukkuren Stonehelm, the Dark elves were freed from his influence. However, King Domaris soon banished the Dark elves from Alfheim, decreeing them untrustworthy.

Eventually, the Dark elves settled in the area which became their kingdom of Dökkálfar. However, during the rule of the Laetin Empire, the volcano Mount Paurk erupted, causing the capital city to be completely buried under ash and volcanic lava. The Dark elves were once again refugees and fled to other nations in Din. One particular group of Dark elves fled west to northwestern Aries. There, they established the kingdom of Svartálfar near Lake Kedrin.
