Darkwood (Dark Fey)
Dark Elves with their goblin serfs have ruled this wood since the dawn. Weakened by wars they have become decadent and lazy and adventurers have begun raiding them. Dark elf defences are crumbling, their goblins and monsters have run wild too long. They may even consider trading with humans not just tormenting them. But most think humans are apish cattle that only mimic free will and culture.

There is a gate to the dark faery under realm inside the great Dawn Blackthorn tree in the Elf Kings Throne Grove. The Dark elf court dwells seasonally in these woods in winter and autumn. Many giant tree forts and towers and monsters keep mortals at bay. Many large animals dwell here, with evil tempers. There are evil sprites, brownies, dwarves, nymphs, dryads, gnomes and pixies aplenty too. Goblins in the dark fey lands are not just on the borders or in the service of nobles, they are everywhere busily working and serving elves. The are part of the society but the lowest caste. Dark elves use beastmen, undead, goblinoids and orcs in their armies with many monsters.

People mistake dark elves as enemies or bright elves but nothing is further from the truth. They are kin and more likely to turn blind eyes to each other or ignore each other but they have united against enemies in the past. The bright elves practice slavery, eugenics and magical surgery on human slaves to make new creatures and think of themselves as gardners on lesser races. Dark elves are more into torture and curses but dabble in slavery and surgery. Dark fey deal with human cults more and might even deal with demons and devils and compete with them for cultists. They welcome cultists to meet  in their lands. Dark Elves regard themselves the persecutors of the lesser races. They reduce the weak and keep survivors strong. Their job is to hamper and sicken and abuse lesser beings to keep their numbers modest and healthy.

They have utterly failed with humans and orcs populations and their folksy and sadistic pranks don't seem to cut it the last 3000 years. So dark elves are considering changes in their approach to dealing with humans. Turning orcs and giants on humanity have been in most of their schemes world wide the last century. Collecting offerings so farmers don't get dark elf pranks is a common racket and this seems not to bother empires and kingdoms. Dark elves have seriously under estimated humans and how they have changed.
