The Dark Elves worship Malassa, the Dragon of Darkness, Keeper of Secrets.
Dark Elves divide their society into two classes: those who can bear the constant whispers of Malassa’s Mark and those who cannot. Those who can without losing their minds command great power and political influence. Dark Elves organized themselves into several clans, each led by a child of Tuidhana. Common interests for specific messages found in the whispers of Malassa’s Mark unite them, not blood or relationships. Members of the Nightshard Clan are passionate about sadness and happiness while the Soul Scar Clan is drawn towards pain, suffering and madness.
Dark Elf buildings are renovations and extensions of ancient Faceless ruins, built in stone and crystal. Their structures are angular, at right angles and use sharp lines, making them a scar on the landscape of the caverns. Dark elf cities are decorated with statues, frescoes, glyphs and the likes. Their windows are high and narrow, to filter light and prevent assassins from entering.
Dark Elves prefer wielding Dark Magic to smite their enemies with coils of darkness, blinding their enemies’ eyes, and other spells that specialize in deception and stealth, summoning spirits of the void and feed on the willpower of their enemies.
The heat and lava is something the Demons have evolved to actually appreciate, but the fact that they cannot escape their prison is insupportable. A new leader, Kha Beleth, has started to preach a world where all demons are created equal and have a right to live freely within and without Sheogh. He is gathering followers, and intends on using the upcoming Bloodmoon eclipse to gain a foothold on Ashan, and expose, if not impose, his people¢s right to an equal place amongst the children of the Dragon Gods.
