Dark Elf | Donmai

ダークエルフ

An elf beings who are said to be troublesome to others or affiliated themselves to the evil and/or dark sides. In some works, they are treated as a separate but related species of elves and are not necessarily evil.

Dark elves' appearances vary from depiction to depiction. Many such as those inspired by Dungeons & Dragons tend to have dark blue or grey skin. Others like the Dark Eldar from Warhammer 40k have pale or white skin. Typical dark elves in many Japanese copyrights instead have dark skin.

This tag can also be applied for elves from copyrights where they have none of the above yet it is their title as a character.
