Our Elves Are Different: 300 years ago, elves were rejected by nature. They have been a Woobie Species ever since.

Walking Wasteland: The "Unnatural" racial trait means if an elf stays in a place too long, crops fail and animals fall sick.

Enemy to All Living Things: The "Unnatural" racial trait gives animals and plants a bonus to attack rolls against elves, and gives elves a penalty to all skill rolls in woodlands. In addition, if an elf stays in a place too long, crops fail and animals fall sick.

Our Dwarves Are All the Same
 Desolation (Tabletop Game) / int_5281d5b1
comment
Our Dwarves Are All the Same: Averted. Although dwarves are often excellent smiths, they are a very diverse race. There are actually two types of dwarves: Mountain Dwarves (which, at first glance, appear to be your typical fantasy dwarves, but have Hidden Depths) and Desert Dwarves (which have very little in common with traditional fantasy dwarves other than being good smiths). In addition, dwarf NPCs mostly avoid stereotypes, and sample characters include a kleptomaniac mountain dwarf who is convinced that the apocalypse is not over.

The Empire: Inverted with the Ascondean Empire, which, pre-apocalypse, was unambiguously one of the best places to live, although, like everywhere else, it did have its problems and Values Dissonance.

Dark Is Not Evil
 Desolation (Tabletop Game) / int_575fd5e2
comment
Dark Is Not Evil: Necromancy is explicitly stated to not be evil. Also, there is nothing sinister about shadow magic besides its users being extremely secretive and tending to put their talents to... morally dubious usage. Dark Is Evil: On the other hand, most of the necromancer NPCs tend to be unpleasant people. Of course, when your magical tradition is almost universally reviled and often outright illegal, and you are almost universally either feared and obeyed or feared and treated like crap because of that, you probably aren't going to look favorably upon people.

Dug Too Deep
 Desolation (Tabletop Game) / int_874c712f
comment
Dug Too Deep: The source of the Deep Horrors. The Mountain Dwarves had stumbled on upon a race of monstrous insects and had been waging a secret war against them for generations before the Night Of Fire. Although the apocalypse seems to have contained them for now, those who know of them fear they might resurface and finish off whats left of the world since there isn't a dwarven nation to fight them anymore.
