==Notes==
*Sylvar use the female draenei skeleton.
*Concept art refers to them as fauns.
**Early Warcraft III and Warcraft RPG lore describe dryads as having the lower body of "woodland fauns".Warcraft III Game Manual, pg. 58 — The playful, frolicking creatures vaguely resemble centaurs (their cursed cousins), but have bodies more akin to woodland fauns.Manual of Monsters, pg. 22 — The creature has the head, arms, and torso of a night elf, but the lower body of a woodland faun.Alliance Player's Guide, pg. 27 — They resemble gray fauns with the upper torsos of night elf women.Alliance Player's Guide, pg. 206 — This creature has the lower body of a gray faun, but the upper body of a beautiful night elf woman.Shadows & Light, pg. 149 — ...the creature before you, with the torso of an elf and the body of a faun, is clearly a dryad. In Cataclysm, Shael'dryn uses "faun" as a term for young dryads.Playing Possum Based on the context, these uses of "faun" may simply be a misspelling of , a juvenile deer.
**In Roman mythology, s are the equivalent of the Greek s, i.e bipeds with goat-like legs and horns on their heads.
*Sylvar name almost certainly came from latin word "sylva"/"silva" which means "forest".
