Nordic Alfar

The Polar Star Spirits is an anime archetype that is used by Brave. There are related to the Norse Mythology. Polar Star Spirit Ljósálfr is a combination of the words "light" and "álfar" (elves). These light elves are divine beings who dwelled in the heavens in Álfheimr. Polar Star Spirit Dökkálfar is the counterpart of Ljósálfr, because it's a combination of the words "dökkr" (dark) and "álfar" (elves). Unlike the light elves who lives in the heavens, the dark elves are beings who dwelled down in the earth.
