Half-Elf Subrace Suggestions:
Half-Elf: Air-Touched
Lithe, graceful, and free-willed, it is said the Air-Touched are distant descendents of the firstmen, born only among those of human ancestry. Such births are rare, often skipping many generations, but they are always seen as signs of great import. Some societies treat the Touched with holy reverence while others consider them beasts to be hunted and feared. Whatever the case, they are almost always set apart from the rest of their kith and kin.

~~~~
Half-Elf: Nomad
The rugged, pale-eyed Elves known to the world as Nomads are said to never lay their heads in the same place twice. Calling themselves 'The Forgotten Ones' or 'Those Left Behind,' they pace restlessly across the lands in ones or twos in search of vengeance. Quick to anger and slow to heal, ill talk tends to follow in their wake.

~~~~
Half-Elf: Peregrine
Surrounded by a nimbus of light wherever they go, Peregrines are often considered to be somehow either Angelic in origin or Angelic by nature. All the same, the jails of the land are often full of them, each one imprisoned for some crime of treason or passion or despair. It is said they love too fully, too impulsively, rarely able to see the wider consequences of their actions.
Favored Class: Cleric (I changed this from Paladin because we already have Aasimar for Paladin...)

~~~~
Half-Elf: Shadow
The so-called Elves of the Shadow have come to dominate much of Elven society, especially in its urban centers. Quick-witted and decadent, they play out their countless intrigues against each other in the Elven courts, the other races serving as unwitting pawns in their endless gambit for power.

~~~~
Half-Elf: Sylvan
Some Elves still linger in the ancient forests, holding fast to the old ways and the teachings of the firstmen. They are few in number, however, and the forests are but a ghost of their former selves. Leaders among the Sylvan Elves claim that the world is ending and that they will be there when it does.
Favored Class: Bard

+2 Cha
+2 AC vs Elementals
50% Vulnerable to Fire

Tracking
~~~~
Half-Elf: Tainted
Considered sullen and devious by some, resourceful and far-thinking by others, few seem to agree on the nature and origins of the Tainted. Given the aura of red light that seems to follow them, some argue that they must be devilspawn or agents of Stygia. More rational voices, however, insist that they must be lingering vestiges from the time of the firstmen, much like their elemental brethren, the Touched.

Half-Elf: Water-Touched
Mysterious, enduring, and mercurial, it is said the Water-Touched are distant descendents of the firstmen, born only among those of human ancestry. Such births are rare, often skipping many generations, but they are always seen as signs of great import. Some societies treat the Touched with holy reverence while others consider them beasts to be hunted and feared. Whatever the case, they are almost always set apart from the rest of their kith and kin.
