Half elves are born of elven and Human parents, however and despite their name, half elves can also have two Human or Elf parents and only have an ancestor of the other race. Half elves oft find themselves between the two worlds of elves and humans, and treated with distrust and often contempt by both.
Half-elves (also called Cha'Tel'Quessir in Elven) were humanoids born through the union of an elf and a human. Whether a half-elf was raised by their human parent or their elven parent, they often felt isolated and alone.
The Elf (plural: elves) is of an ancient race of humanoids. They are a very common creature in fantasy universes. They are portrayed as elegant, intelligent, beautiful, and deadly with magic and bows.
Half-elves are paler, fairer, and smoother-skinned than their human parents, but their actual skin tone, hair color, and other details vary just as human features do. Half-elves' eyes are green, just as are those of their elf parents. A half-elf reaches adulthood at age 20 and can live to be more than 180 years old.
They were tall, fair of skin and grey-eyed, though their locks were dark, save in the golden house of Finrod… It's kind of hard to speak of “white” when you're not referring to humans, but Tolkien's Elves — if they're given any real description at all — are described as pale, and usually dark-haired and grey-eyed.
Tolkien never describes his Elves as white skinned. There's no reason to believe that all Elves had pale skin, and even if all Elves had pale skin not all people with pale skin are white. It is okay to imagine Elves however you imagine them.
He was tall and black-haired; his eyes were dark, yet bright and keen as the eyes of the Noldor, and his skin was white. Ultimately, you can find plenty of quotes that describe elves as being "pale", "fair of skin" or "white".
In J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, the Elves or Quendi are a sundered (divided) people. They awoke at Cuiviénen on the continent of Middle-earth, where they were divided into three tribes: Minyar (the Firsts), Tatyar (the Seconds) and Nelyar (the Thirds).
Obvious options include the Drow and the Eladrin because they do get Charisma increases, but Sea Elves and Shadar-Kai make good options too, and you might even be able to make the High Elf work if you can make good use of attack cantrips like Booming Blade from time to time.
Half-elven (Sindarin singular Peredhel, plural Peredhil), are the children of the Union of Elves and Men. Half-elven are not a distinct race per se; rather, they were fertile offspring as the result of a union between Elves and Men.
Age: Half-elves mature at the same rate humans do and reach adulthood around the age of 20. They live much longer than humans, however, often exceeding 180 years.
To humans, half-elves look like elves, and to elves, they look human. In height, they're on par with both parents, though they're neither as slender as elves nor as broad as humans. They range from under 5 feet to about 6 feet tall, and from 100 to 180 pounds, with men only slightly taller and heavier than women.

Dökkálfar or dark elves, a type of elf in Norse mythology.
The elf is a humanoid race in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, one of the primary races available for player characters, and play a central role in the narratives of many setting worlds of the game.
In J. R. R. Tolkien's writings, Elves are the first fictional race to appear in Middle-earth. Unlike Men and Dwarves, Elves are immortal.
But the "two classes of creatures were getting confounded", and there arose a need to coin the term "light-elf" (ljósálfar, or hvítálfar—"white elves") to refer to the "elves proper". This was counterpart to the "dark-elf" (dökkálfar, or svartálfar—"black elves").
In Norse mythology, the svartálfar ("black elves") or dökkálfar (" dark elves") are supernatural beings (Old Norse " vættir," wights) that are said to reside in the underground world of Svartálfheim.
And besides, Tolkien based a lot of his lore on the folklore of northern Europe. That means, elves, who come from Norse beliefs, are in fact fair skinned, or pale skinned.
Dark Elves are characterized by white or silver hair and obsidian black and gray skin. Their eyes are red (or rarely gray, violet, or yellow) in darkness and can be many different colors in normal light.
no! Elves in Middle Earth are fair-skinned to the point of being beyond your typical caucasian skin, and are always described as such.
The Elves were the fairest creatures in Arda, a far more beautiful race than Men, and generally tall (seldom less than six feet for elf women, no less than six and a half feet for elfmen). Among them, those who had gone to Valinor were the fairest and had the greatest skill of body. Elves had keener senses than Men.
Half-elves have less than or equal to 50% human blood. More than half human (such as the child of a half-elf and a human) is just human. But any amount of human blood is enough to prevent full-blooded elfishness. An elf and a half-elf will produce a half-elf child.
