Szarkai (5e Subrace)
From D&D Wiki
Elf Subrace
These rare mutations of drows are born as albino, and make up only about 0.01% of the drow population. They look very similar, therefore, to elves of the world above, making them invaluable to drows for espionage missions. As albinos, they often appear to have bone-white to alabaster-white skin and red eyes. They also featured a small host of deformities like lack of hair, small fang, or gnarled hands and claws. Szarkai are known to possess a cooler air about them than their fellow drow, and are very skilled in cruel intrigues. As such, they hate combat and prefer it over quick, whether by escape or quick victory.
