[Accepted] The Asari

[Who Dares Wins]

The Asari (More commonly known as Wood Elves) were once part of a grand Elven Empire, it's history long since forgotten to mortals. Sailing from their Island home, these Elves colonised the lands later inhabited by men, including many forests of Crussaria. After many years of peaceful existence, these colonists came into conflict with an army of the Undead. This centuries long conflict saw Undead forces through such forests, felling trees to fuel their furnaces, and to spite the Elves. Some Elven colonist took to the woods to prevent this destruction, ambushing the Undead forces when possible. Eventually the Elves were defeated, and the order came to retreat back to their Island home. However many of the colonists felt little loyalty towards that distant land and, having formed a bond with the forests, chose to remain. They became known as the Wood Elves.

The Asari have learnt to wield The Forests as a weapon against invaders, leading invaders down magical pathways to wander for centuries, only re-appearing many years later before quickly ageing and dying. Such 'tree-singing' is also used to form great cities in the trees, cities which few outsiders are ever permitted to see.

The Asari cannot be described as morally 'good' or 'bad', lacking the clear definition of others. Like nature itself they can appear as fickle and capricious as the winter chill, yet also as warm as the summer sun.

Structure

Highborn

Highborns are the upper, ruling class of Asari society. They lead the Asari in time of peace, and it is expected of them to be equally capable generals in times of war.

Noble

Nobles are similar to a Highborns, but with lower status, both on the battlefield and off. Nobles function as as Officers of sorts.

Eternal Guard

Using a unique fighting form with their spears and shields, Eternal Guard will solidly stand against any who threaten the lands of the Asari. Eternal Guard are frequently utilised as bodyguards for Highborn and Noble Elves. They are the only ones standing between the enemy and the destruction of the forest during winter time. During other seasons they have mostly ceremonial roles and of course, the right hand of the royals.

Glade Guard

When Athel Loren goes to war the Glade Guard form the bulk of the army, a deadly core of skilled archers that can often put a foe to flight before the battle has been joined. Renowned for their impressive longbows, the Glade Guard are skilled bowmen whose understanding of the woods allows them to move seemingly unhindered through thick brush and dense undergrowth. All citizens of the Asari are part of the Glade Guard Legions as all are called to serve in times of need.

Citizen

The citizens of the Asari. They live their regular lives within The Forests but are often called upon in times of war to serve in the Glade Guard.
