Pale Elf

Pale elves are a subrace of elf that diverged from the wood elves of Thaerwood before the Collapse. Forging their own path under the dark moon of Morrigan, they honed the art of necromancy and turned their territory of Bleakwood into a decaying, dead forest. When pale elves conduct necromancy, they are able to draw from the energy of any nearby living creature to enhance their arcane abilities. Pale elves draw suspicion and fear from others when they travel beyond their home of Bleakwood, especially in the other regions of Nilandra where their reputation is one of evil and death. Even those pale elves who have renounced necromancy find themselves the target of suspicious glares when travelling around Nilandra.
