Selfanhel

The Selfanhel (the shining ones) are those that are descended from the first elves that was forced to enter the cave system of the Underdark five thousand years ago after the battle of the first ones. They are the ones that have changed the less drastically, as they lived in the bioluminescent caverns of the under dark and used magic to create a realm of perpetual twilight. They evolved to have dazzling glowing eyes, skin with a shade of blue or violet, and hairs ranging from silver to red to violet to blue to black blue. They also retained much of the beauty of the first ones, and are called the shining ones by their dark elven cousins. When they return to the pristine wilderness of Saldoran, they are the least affected by the dazzling light of the sun, but still prefer the hours of twilight between dusk and dawn. Among their fellow Dark Elves, they are the ones closest to nature.
