I don't mean to be goofy here, but all through this thread you've insisted that sun elves are Chaotic Good because published sources have established their Chaotic Goodness.. You may be very right that in the Faerunian context, "dark elf" means any evil elf and that since most drow are evil, they are also dark elves (along with evil sun, moon, wild, etc elves). However, I've read a lot of FR material myself, and while I haven't got an amazing mastery of the material.. I don't remember reading that anywhere. It's pretty clear that as far as D&D is concerned, you have one alignment which governs your ethical and moral outlook, and is governed by them in turn. There's no moral relativism in D&D, since you are either evil, and thus damaged by holy weapons, etc.. or you are not. You can't be good to elves and evil to humans, or good to elves and neutral to humans without this being reflected in your alignment.
