Introduction

The Bone Elves, or Bone Clan, is a loose association of necromantic Elves that left the Dragon Spine Mountains after killing the Dwarves that had enslaved them for 150 years. Their first leader was Sidhlot. Most of their fellow enslaved Elves remained inside the mountain and formed the Mountain Elves, led by Queen Morganae.

From "The Elven Folk" by Matron Selidhn, an Elf

Mysterious and feared, Bone Elves carry much of the anguish of the Mountain Elves and have converted it into bitterness and hate. Bone Elves are necromancers and enchanters, destroying for the sake of destruction. Bone Elves despise all things pure and are followers of Huldah and Harawep. Perhaps most frightening is their ability to melt in amongst other Elves -- their only discerning feature is that they are very intolerant to alcohol and shun the light.

Bone Elves consort with the demonic creatures of other planes, and welcome all and any Elven "undesirables" into their clan, their leader is the original nemesis of Morganae -- an Elf named Sidhlot. Morganae despises Sidhlot since he is one of the first to challenge her "right" to rule the Mountain Elves, and he despises her because she has retained that right over the years. Sidhlot teaches much of his dark magic to the clan members, using this as a shield against dissension. Traitors to the clan are put to a slow, painful death, and their soul passed over to the demonic forces that Sidhlot has bargained with.
