Sparkling elves... What the hell is he talking about?

Dungeons and Dragons is putting some energy into an old favorite of many. Any dark elf fan boys and girls and there?

Some would argue dark elves are the first sparkling vampires of the elve world... But I think they were born out of some 1960-70s need to fill in a mythos/story around some scantily clad (i.e. naked) black skinned stark white haired female upper bodies attached to spider abdomen fetish art... But that is an unfounded claim on my part!

Regardless I think you may find the video enjoyable. At minimum you may agree that is well produced. Good pacing. On a technical note I really like how they used 2D still images and gave the camera movements a 3D feed using a parallax technique.
