- Variant - Sun-Acclimated
Some dark elves have spent enough time on the surface that they have become accustomed to the sunlight, at the cost of their enhanced vision in dark and dim conditions. If you wish to play such a dark elf, you lose the Superior Darkvision and Sunlight Sensitivity traits of the standard dark elf subrace above.
