Long ago, the Dark Elves were created by Morrak as a dark mockery of the Elves which his sister Alrayna made. They are said to have been cast from his blood. Their shadowy heritage usually causes them to live in darkness and revel in others' misery.
Appearance
Dark Elves appear much as the Elves, but with mocha to violet skin, and with white to taupe hair. Their eyes range from purple to brown. Dark Elves are often found wearing blacks and greys, favoring cloaks and robes of silky materials.
Personality
Dark Elves are often very clever and sneaky, yet they never break promises they make in earnest. Dark Elves are most often aloof, judgmental, vengeful, and quick to anger. A Dark Elf usually possesses a silver tongue and many dabble in Charms and Illusions.
Habitat
Since Dark Elves have no established countries, they typically live among other races, at least, among people who would tolerate their company. Dark Elves can be found in the cities controlled by the Black Storm and many fill the ranks of the Blades of Morrak. Some less malevolent Dark Elves can be found in Zirien.
Society
Dark Elves are allegiant to their lords, but have no society of their own. They often take up lives as mercenaries and swords-for-hire. Occasionally, Dark Elves may set up a secluded village, but keep quiet for fear of attack by Elves. Legends tell of once-great Dark Elf kingdoms, but none stand to this day.
Max Caps
- Muscle 8
- Cunning 12
- Persuasion 12
- Self-Control 8
Adventures
Benevolent Dark Elves make great traveling companions, but they're often misunderstood. Malevolent Dark Elves are fantastic assassins, sorcerers, or mercenaries.
Powers
- Dark Elven Cunning. Dark Elves have powerful vision and hearing, receiving a +3 to Spot and Listen checks. Their range for these senses is twice that of a human and can see clearly even in complete darkness. They also possess a supernatural intuition about looming danger, getting a "bad feeling" when events could go sour.
- Veil of Shadow. Dark Elves gain a +5 to Hide checks when in dim light and shadows.
