Moon Elf

Moon elves are a type of high elf, and as such have been infused with the magic of crossings between the Feywild and the Material Plane.

Moon elves are the most common type of elves in Faerun. Also called silver elves, they are the most tolerant of humankind, and most half-elves are descended from moon elves.
