Snow elves, also known as Ice elves, are a proud race with great aptitude for magic, and they mostly resemble gold-skinned and pale Altmer with white hair, a long lifespan, and strong resistance to frost that allows them to live in ice-cold regions.

They have long maintained an alliance with the Dwemer, only to get poisoned and blinded after eating the fungi their allies gave them, subjugating them with ease. These slaves, Betrayed, are also better known by a different name, The Falmer.

When their leader, Snow Prince, was killed in the war against the Nords in the past, the Snow Elves scattered, though some remain and still populate various regions, mostly cold ones, with names like Kirthune Orzras and Farilor Orwenoth.
