What elf subrace is the default? In BG1,2 etc and NVN you only get to pick Elf as a race, but which subrace is it meant to represent? I think it's Moon Elf, most common and most tolerant of other races. Fairly vanilla compared to the other Elven subraces that specialise in certain playstyles.
In AD&D there were no differences between subraces IIRC, including elven subraces, so you can play an elf of any origin when choosing your race (Drows and duergar are labelled as monster races)
NWN uses 3-3.5 rules so there are subraces and many more playable races like drows, tieflings, aasimar, etc.
