i dont believe that dark elves having black skin is rascist toward the black peoples. having black skin was a way to distinguish them from there fair skinned counterparts. for one thing, it better suited there dark, underground envioroment. having black skin did not make them inferior then other races, it just made them more unique. the fact that the drow are a gennerally evil race has nothing to do with the color of there skin - it was the choices they made as a society and by the individuals ofthe drow people.
Real subterranean thingies tend go white, not black:
Trying to use realism as a defence for a fantasy race only works when the realism is correct.
also, the svartalfar, black elves, of norse mythology from which the whole dark elves thing comes from?

Nonono, the Bendis one. Santa Doom is obviously awesome and right.

The tiny population, and lack of resources that aren't diamonds don't really help matters though.
