So yeah, I'm following through on a threat I made to make a big ol' list of all the fictional races from video games. I'm currently drawing the line at animals and other mindless creatures, since there's a hell of a lot of monsters in the wiki too, but that may change if I become even more insane.
Hopefully this'll be of some use to someone in the future, if only for when a future Quest asks you to name every type of elf. It might be called "Elf Benefits", or "Elf-Obsessed" perhaps.

(Everywhere) Starting with a classic. The only non-fictional sentient race. We don't have any particularly sweet powers though. At least I don't.
(Everywhere) Fairy folk have various incarnations in video games, but they're usually mischievous forest creatures of a very small size. Sometimes live in bottles. Against their will, one would imagine.
(Everywhere) Aquatic folk that are half fish (the bottom half, usually).
(Elder Scrolls) The Breton are essentially half-elves, but it's a little more complicated than that. Magically-acute humans. From the Elder Scrolls series. For the record: Redguards, Imperials and Nords from the same series are all humans. Unless you want to make the case that they aren't.
(Elder Scrolls) A reptilian race. From the Elder Scrolls series.
(Elder Scrolls) Khajiit are cat people. Like Malcolm McDowell. Sort of.
(D&D) Wood Elves, or Bosmer (Elder Scrolls), are elves that dwell in woods. Generally speaking.
(D&D) High Elves, or Altmer, is usually the name given to civilized Elves that live in cities of their own creation. They're usually pretty haughty too.
(D&D) Dark Elves, or Dunmer, are elves that live underground. They're usually evil.
(D&D) A common race found in Tolkien-inspired worlds, Dwarves love beer, gold and fighting. Not necessarily in that order.
