I replaced the standard elf race with the ghost elf race in my setting; I think it makes them seem more "fey-like" to me, which was the intention. Plus it really messes with the players expectations. The "glows-in-the-dark" part, for example, came up in the last game as a plot point to a murder mystery.

This was very similar to my line of thinking!

What do you plan on doing exactly?
One of the players lost his soul to the Void Card in a Deck of Many Things (he kept bugging me to include one in an adventure...now he regrets it!). I thought about it, and a quest to return his soul to his now zombie like body would be a great adventure and allow me to use some "non-standard" ideas for the game.
Taking the City of Balefire from Dragon magazine, I'm making it a bulwark against the Plane of Shadow deep inside a giant cavern. Its denizens will be Ghost Elves, though I'm changing their ethereal traveling powers to allow them to access the Plane of Shadow instead. I thought this ephemeral, very alien type of elf which actually emits light would be a neat twist on living in a city of darkness.
The players will have to strike a deal with the denizens of Balefire in order to get a guide to lead them to the Plane of Shadow. I'll probably throw in a Truenamer as well, to help them find the player's soul.
Any input would be appreciated!
