Wild Elves: Daggers by Stone Gargoyle

Dagger Elves are savage, warlike elves living outside the established elf civilization. According to legend, their race was cast out due to low intelligence or taken as slaves to work in noble houses. Some time later, what few lived amongst the civilized elves revolted, leaving corpses and bloodshed in their wake. Consequently, mainstream elf society denies their existence and any rights in elven civilization, allowing them to live outside elven laws. Due to the harshness of their existence, Dagger Elves exist in fewer numbers than civilized elves.
