Sun Elf

The sun elves, also sometimes known as gold elves, sometimes as high elves due to their stereotypically elitist ways, and Ar'Tel'Quessir in their own language are a subrace of high elves historically rare in Faerûn due to the Retreat, in which the majority abandoned the continent for Evermeet, although during the Era of Upheaval they began returning to the mainland. Haughty and arrogant, sun elves typically feel themselves superior to most other races, including other Tel'Quessir.
