Who is the Dark Elf? Who was his son and his claim to fame?

Eol was the dark elf.
His son was Maeglin, and I believe he brought about the fall of Gondolin.

You are correct about Eol.. but it wasnt because he did anything treacherous. Dark Elves in Tolkien were not like Drow they were simply "dark" because they never saw the light of Valinor. He married someone.... shit I cannot remember who.. some high elf's daughter. At first he held her prisoner but after that she fell in love with him and she refused to leave him.
-Nah-

I dont get it, High elves are pasty white, and dark elves have the dark/tan skin....

They called him dark elf mainly because he avoided the daylight, he also had black armor and a sword fashioned from some special ore
