Shadow Elf

Shadow Elves or the Shadar-Kai are sub-race of elves that were exposed to the powers of Shadowfell. In this way, they are almost like Drow in pigment. However, they are strangely nocturnal in that they hate to do anything while the sun is up, even if they are not directly within its rays. They thus are said to have an internal clock that allows them to know the phases of the sun and moon relative to their location. While active, they tend to engage in espionage and other crafty projects involving their great stealth.
