Unit description

Night Elves Heroes

Keeper of the Grove



These Half-Elves are even more retract from the normal world than the regular Night-Elves, saveguarding their territory with fantastic spells. With the chest of an Elf, the body of a horse or something like that he looks dangerous. He does not seem to have a weapon.

Spells/Skills:

Force of Nature - Summons a Tree Man, who'll fight with the Elves.

Strangle Vines - A sort of trap, poisoning and slowing the enemy down. Upgradeable.

Thorns - Aura, makes the damage done against the Keeper and nearby units go over on their attackers. Upgradeable.

Tranquility (ultimate) - Stops all spells on the whole map.

Demon Hunter



This is the unit you want to have if you're forced to fight the Demons! With their supernatural powers they are able to conquer any of their enemies. He has two short swords, and he uses them to create a wall of steel to conquer his most hated enemies: the Demons.

Spells/Skills:

Soul Siphon - Increases health at cost of enemy mana. Upgradeable.

Mind Lock - Disables target to cast spells. Upgradeable.

Flame Blade - Extra powerful attack, influencing his swords. Upgradeable.

Metamorphosis (ultimate) - Transforms the Demon Hunter into a new form, probaly into a Demon-like creature.

Priestess of the Moon



Riding on owls and wearing a bow, they are the 'true leaders of the Night Elves army'. They're the Elven counterpart of the Night Elves' Moon Goddes Lunathris. At night, when all Night Elves feel more comfortable, you can see her flying on her owl, seeking for enemies to destroy, as well with her bow as with her magic forces. It is unsure wether she still rides an owl: recent Blizzard comments made clear that the Orc Far Seer has lost his Wyvern and now rides a wolf because flying heroes would be too fast and give many advantages compared to non-flying heroes, so the next step would be grounding the priestess.

Spells/Skills:

Searing Light - Makes her bow shoot moonlight, and it inflicts double damage to an Undead unit. Upgradeable.

True Shot - Aura, increasing ranged attack power for nearby units. Upgradeable.

Moon Glow - Summons moonlight, revealing cloacked and invisible units. Upgradeable.

Starfall - Creates a rain of fallign stars, damaging units.

Archer



This unit type has a bow, with a far greater range than any other unit with a long-range weapon. This basic fighter has the speed and the power to do fast attacks. But on the other side, they aren't good at defence. Still are the Archer the basic units of the Night Elves.

Huntress



The Huntress are the elites of the Sentinel Army. They ride the Nightsabre panters in battle, making them both fast and powerful. The Huntress fights with a strange, 3-bladed sword.

Druid of the Claw



This second transformable unit can transform into a bear, however he can still attack, instead of the Druid of the Talon, being shapeshifted, but he can't cast spells.
