The Icewind Dale 2 site has been updated with info on subraces that you will find in the game. Here's something about the Wood Elf:
WOOD ELF:
Wood elves, like their close cousins, wild elves, are more nature-oriented than high elves. Wood elves are often xenophobic and reclusive; preferring isolated tribal life to grand cities. However, wood elves occasionally do venture out into the world and are legendary for their fighting prowess and bravery. Wood elves typically have olive skin and coppery red or greenish brown hair. Wood elves are stronger and more agile than normal elves, but lack in Intelligence and hardiness.
