Overview

Forever intrigued by nature and how it thrives in different places in the world, Wood Elves travel to new places quite often, though they usually distance themselves from the cities, finding comfort in the wild places of the world. The Maelstrom Isles! is teeming with life, and some of it bears the taint of corruption. A delegation of Wood Elves from an unknown grove has traveled to the Isles and set up an outpost on a secluded Island to study the land. They are welcoming to other Wood Elves that have traveled there on their own and seek a familiar refuge. They are also welcoming to those who have respect for Nature.
As an elf you have the features included here. Your subrace, Wood Elf, grants you additional features.

Homelands across the world

• The largest populations of Wood Elves are in their legendairy groves and oasises across the world. It’s said that these hidden places are sources of great power that have to be strongly protected so they are sheltered from corruption.
• The Wood Elves that do not live in the groves still prefer to stay hidden among nature. There are many villages that are unknown to all but those who have gained the Wood Elves' trust.
• There are a few outposts of Wood Elves that are known and not hidden, these are places of refuge that care for the land around them and accept those that are injured and sick. Animals also know they will be protected there and so they have become sanctuaries for them, people also bring animals they have come across that are sick or wounded. There is a large outpost in The Northern Realms near the frigid waters of the Somber Sea, another along the Haladri Road in the Hellfire Desert, and two outposts are currently being built, the one in the Maelstrom Isles!, and one on the edge of the Unforgiving Plains.

Religion

Wood Elves worship Nature, all of their power and life comes from her.
