![]() They may understand another race's viewpoints or plight, possibly mixing it with their own ways. The traditional-leaning may speak up or hesitate to break taboos or try new things, while liberal-leaning ones may be more inclined to experiment. These elves are far more likely to break with tradition but may still lean one way or another, with traditional-leaning elves still holding on to what they've learned for hundreds of years. Here Night Elves may be getting used to outsiders, forming more bonds with non-Night Elves and traveling outside of Kalimdor and Night Elf territory. NPC examples: Maiev Shadowsong (10), Jarod Shadowsong (9), Fandral Staghelm (8), Shandris Feathermoon (7)Īdventurous Night Elves are those who are not quite liberal, yet not quite traditional. Because of this, it is very likely that the majority of Night Elf society falls in this range, not yet transitioned into the new ways and ties made since the Third War.Īn example: A traditional Night Elf will choose a bow over a gun at every opportunity, even if the gun is slightly better. It should also be noted that Night Elves are slow to change. It is, of course, up to you where they fall on the traditional scale, but the higher up they are on it, the more set in the old ways they'll be. As they move closer to the middle of the scale, traditional elves mellow a bit and make concessions or compromises in their beliefs, perhaps still favoring the old ways but able to cope with the new, or approving of some of the gender changes, yet not the inclusion of foreign races. They may dislike the changes to the Night Elf government and lifestyle, may dislike outlanders or believe that their old ways are superior. Those who are on the far end of the tradition scale will usually and religiously push for how things were prior to the Third War. These elves very much so embody what it meant to be a Night Elf not even 15 years prior to the current timeline. ![]() Traditional Night Elves are those who cling to the old ways, the ways before the Third War and the rules and lifestyles of the Long Vigil. My sources include the WoW comics, Stormrage, Wolfheart, the War of the Ancients Trilogy, the quests from every Night Elf zone (and then some) from pre and post-Cataclysm, archaeology finds, game manuals for both WoW and WC3, WC3 plus the expansion, The Chronicle Volumes, and things like the Cdevs and magazines. I put a lot of work into maintaining this and I hope everyone enjoys what has been put down here. So I did all those quests, read all the books and comics, sifted through all the information and logged it all.īefore you jump into the guide, I just want to express my gratitude for reading it. ![]() Buying books or doing every quest in a zone just to understand a race can get boring or drain your money. ![]() I decided to take up that job so others don't have to, should they not want to. Ultimately, the plethora of quests, books and in game reading one has to do is astounding. A person who hasn't roleplayed a Night Elf before or a fresh player might be intimidated by all the lore they have to sift through to get a good idea about what the Night Elves are about. Night Elf lore can be vague at times and they're a race far from human, meaning that everything about them, from social interaction to biology can be different.
