While true, more than other they have been the stubborn allies good guys
Yeah, well I guess we can thank Tolkien and how his depiction of Elves have engrained this "goody-two-shoes" image of Elves into the brains of generations.
What the hell happened to the mist-dancing Elves who enraptured and tricked men into their doom in the Northern European swamps??
Lazy, walk around and take in the view
XD but but...too long!
I'm purty sure the Dark Elves of Warhammer qualify as villains. I mean... They worship the god of Murder and bathe in the blood of their captives.. At least they seem villainous..
So an Elven people being villainous in fiction isn't exactly unprecedented.
Are there any elves that are villainous as a majority without the typical light elves while dark elves and probably mixed with some other species to make them evil? (Not saying this about the Dark Elves of Warhammer since I have no idea about them whatsoever).

Those aren't pixies?
I loved how wide and expansive the deep roads were! One of the best parts in DAO for me.
Ugh but there was nothing down there but dirt, SPIDERS and darkspawn.
And rightly so!
Remember kids murder is wrong... unless it's Fantasy!Nazis.
"Heil, mein uber Führer!"

You mean where the majority of Elves are villains? Because if so, not that I know of.

Tolkien was aware of them. He just wanted to do something different. Ironically, Tolkien was very original by going in that direction.
Kingdoms of Amalur had a faction of elves as the main antagonists.
my italian is a little off, what about balognia?

I know. However what the author knows is insignificant to the image his readers percieve. And since (assumption on my part) more people are familiar with Tolkien work, than ancient germanic folklore, most people see Elves as benevolent beings initially.

Technically I suppose that the Witcher 2 did as well, at least potentially. But in both cases it is only an Elven faction and not the majority of Elves.

True. I see your point.
Heh, the amount of feedback on the ways of the ancient Arlathan shows, that it wasn't only me, who had a certain level of resentment towards the "smug sense of superiority" of the Dalish.
Ok, I got a copy of the book. Will begin reading now.
You know, Feel better now about the Dalish.
There aren't the misunderstood bigots that some people try to make them out to be.
They based off a culture as vile and evil as anything produced by Humanity.

besides, who says elves have to live in the forest and dwarves have to live underground? I say give trees to the dwarves and give stones to the elves!

Yeah.
Aw 
Spoiler
xD
You're terrible XD

Oh my god.
So the Dalish weren't innocent victims after all.
My prayers are answered.

I feel that I've missed something. Again. Was some secret about Arlathan revealed in The Masked Empire?

hell no. not unless someone is willing to push my ass around.
