Night Elf - WoW Classic Era
WoW Classic Era
Ancient night elves protect their forests and the balance of nature.
Playable since WoW Vanilla
History
The kaldorei remember an ancient civilisation whose use of magic helped bring catastrophe to Azeroth. The War of the Ancients and the struggle against the Burning Legion left them with a lasting responsibility to guard the world.
Culture
Reverence for Elune and a close relationship with nature guide many kaldorei traditions. Sentinels, spiritual leaders and keepers of the forests express different forms of service to a people with a long collective memory.
Origins and homeland
Kalimdor’s forests form the heart of kaldorei history, from sacred Mount Hyjal to the wooded reaches of Ashenvale. Their bond with these lands reaches beyond any single city and survives the upheavals of later eras.
