They are kind of like elves, except they are evil and don't respect nature as much. I just copied the dwarf entity and made it elfy with a touch of evil. Since they are evil, I'm not sure how it will affect caravans, you'll probably wind up trading with goblins and kobolds.

Make sure to generate a new world with these mods, you can't use a previously generate one. Also, one weird thing, and I'm not sure if this is something that happens normally and I just noticed or if my mods are doing this, but there were a few dark dwarf and dark human settlements in world gen. Anyway, I have successfully embarked as Dark Elves, but I haven't gone much farther than that yet. I have no idea if this will work in 2010.
