Anti-elves live underground in ultra-controlled, industrial, technolgical environments because they hate nature. They want replace it all with a machinery hellscape like Apokolips. The only reason they haven't yet is because they hate the sun, too, and are forced to live underground. They're working on that one.
Anti-elves are profoundly unmagical. All those magical abilities listed in a drow stat block have a technological basis. No surface creature can steal a anti-elf device and make it work because their bio-energy polarity will just disrupt it and make it nonfunctional after a use or two.
Ant-elves don't believe in gods, meaning they accept the existence of tiresome things other races call gods, but they think them ridiculous impediments to their own purposes and would never worship them. All sacrifices you might see them make are strictly translactional. Any temples are really just fanclubs--an anti-elves are the sort of crazy, obsessive fans that are very likely to progress to stalking and murder.

Interesting twist! I'd also say that their spider pets are actually liquid crystal golems. Outsiders can't tell the difference, and the artificial arachnids dissolve when slain.
Well, that makes more sense than FR drow.
Certainly playable and any excuse to break out Errol Otus' art is a good one.
In the final picture, she looks to pouring the black goo that turns people into mutants from the recent Alien films. That guy on the slab is about to have a really bad day.
That reminds me of the movie The Dark Crystal, where each of the vulture people had a duplicate among the elephant/yak looking guys. When one gets injured the other does too, when one dies the other dies, etc.
