Since Aerenal is in a tropical zone, wouldn't stand to reason that the Valenar Elves would have darker skin tones?

I would say that is plausible.

While most of Aerenal is tropical jungle, the Tairnadal milieu is the given as "steppe", which would mean subtropical, despite being quite close/right on the equator. But still I'd agree about the skin tone. They are also get out in the fresh air more often than their cousins, and don't try to look deathl(essl)y pale as a matter of culture and religion.

Cool.  I did a Valenar dervish last night.  The skin tone I used is tanner than an Aerenal's, but it still came from a character meant to be a vampire.
