A Brief Compilation of Wood Elven Background

Post by Schmeag »

Last edited 8/07/09 by Schmeag.

At the behest of Eldacar, I've compiled all the relevant background material that's listed on the Meadow of Tales forum and some other forums into one thread. It's right here. You might notice a few thread repetitions; this is just merely members posting the same question after an extended period of time. I compiled this to ensure that further questions involving those topics could simply be directed here. Enjoy reading.
