* RightfulKingReturns: Malekith sees himself as the one true king of the elves and will stop at nothing to achieve this. He would rather Ulthuan, and the world itself, be destroyed than see it in the hands of another.

* SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: The Dark Elven kingdom was built on the backs of countless slaves, who to this day form the backbone of it's economy and workforce. This focus on slavery is often used to emphasize just how vile the Druchii are.

Added DiffLines:

* ThePowerOfHate: All Dark Elves are vicious and hateful creatures, but Malekith makes them all look like amateurs. He will destroy the world if it means attaining his vengeance, and it's been implied that only his hate allows him to bear the combination of his armor and the still-smouldering Flames of Asuryan that burn within him.

to:

Disgraced son of Aenarion, the first Phoenix King, and his second wife, Morathi, Malekith was once the heir to the throne of Ulthuan and was a key figure in founding the original alliance between Elves and Dwarves. But fear of his grim nature and what darkness he might have inherited from his parents, combined with politicing, resulted in another elven noble being given the throne. Though Malekith feigned satisfaction, resentment burned within him, and he took a long and bloody path that led to his murdering the second Phoenix King and trying to take his place. Rejected and horribly burned by the Flames of Asuryan, Malekith caused the fracture in elven society that created the three elven people today, eventually claiming the throne of Naggaroth as the immortal Witch King.

They are raiders, reavers and heartless torturers of the highest degree, their desire being nothing more than to sow misery and pain to all that oppose them, for make no mistake, misery and pain is the very lifeblood of their existence. Thus do their Black Arks and Corsair Fleets ply the great waters of the world, raiding and enslaving all before them as a tribute to their own avaricious desires. Yet even should every other land bow to their rule, the Dark Elves know that they cannot claim their glorious inheritance whilst their hated brethrens, the High Elves, endure.

The Dark Elves, or the Druchii as they call themselves, and sometimes as the Nagarrothi or the "Dark Ones", are one of the most ancient, powerful and sadistic of the three Elven civilizations. From the bleak, chilly lands of Naggaroth lies the Dark Elven Kingdoms of Witch King Malekith, a realm born from the depths of malice and hate, a kingdom that seeks nothing more than to despoil a world they believe loathes their existence. With malevolent eyes, the Dark Elves watch this dying world, knowing it is their birthright to rule all that they've survey and those that live upon it are born to do nothing more than to grovel at their very feet.

Thus do their Black Arks and Corsair Fleets ply the great waters of the world, raiding and enslaving all before them as a tribute to their own avaricious desires. Yet even should every other land would bow to their rule, the Dark Elves know that they cannot claim their glorious inheritance whilst their hated brethrens, the High Elves endure.

Until that day finally dawns when the Isles of Ulthuan are finally theirs, the Dark Elves will continue their bloody quest as they always have. Great raiding fleets, their sails black against the night sky, bring woe and destruction to all the shores of the world, bearing terror and death to distant realms, often for no better reason than because there is no-one who can stand against them. With every year that passes, the power of Naggaroth ascends to greater heights, built upon the backs of slaves and fuelled by a constant stream of plunder from far-off lands. As the other elder races fade, the Dark Elves thrive, knowing that their hour has at last come. Stormclouds gather across the High Elf realms, and the Witch King's malevolent laughter echoes upon the wind. Naggaroth will rise, Ulthuan will fall, and a vengeance thousands of years in the making will finally see its bloody conclusion.
