The Dunaelfes (🔊 DOON-alf) grew distant from their Aelfen cousins due to a difference in aesthetic sensibilities. They reside primarily in Aelfgarad.
Overview
The Dunaelf broke from Friggaelfes from what began as an aesthetic preference. They preferred darker colors and features in their art, eventually coming to prefer darker features in skin tone. Over a great many years, through aesthetically driven selection, it came to pass that the Dunaelf were routinely born with darker colored skin.
In many other matters of their aesthetic sensibilities, the Dunaelf are still not too distant from their Friggaelf cousins. They believe that true beauty can only be achieved through artistic endeavors. They differ again when it comes to the nature of their art. Dunaelf art is somewhat terrifying to all but those who have learned to appreciate it.
