In Norse Mythology, the Alfar, or Elves, are usually considered to be the height of humans or just above. The Light Elves are supposedly fair to look upon, and they live in Alfheim.
The Svartalfar (Dark Elves) live in the dark, and are slightly more mischievous. They are often assosciated with Dwarves.
The Eddas tend to use "Alfar" and "Vanir" interchangeably.
