## Summery

Darnassus is a nation of night elves and a member state of the Alliance. Named after their former capital city, Darnassus constructed in the tree crown of Teldrassil, the nation has kept the name after the loss of their home in the War of the Thorns. The nation of Darnassus is the cultural descendant of the ancient Kaldorei Empire, having been led by High Priestess Tyrande Whisperwind throughout the Long Vigil but have only risen to its current form and name after the Battle of Mount Hyjal and creation of Teldrassil by Archdruid Fandral Staghelm in the aftermath of the Third War. With Tyrande's marriage to Archdruid Malfurion Stormrage the two have since been co-rulers of the kaldorei nation.

## Strengths/Pros

Their primary strength lies in the environment where nature is strong and are able to utilize the forest spirits to help them in battle. The Night Elves have a wide range of allies that they can call on in nature, which included animals of various kind, such as ancients, treants, dryads, and keepers of the grove.

## Weaknesses/Flaws

Before their contact with the Alliance and Horde, they were rather isolated from the rest of the world and did not trust outsiders and those who invaded their forest. They are rather susceptible to corruption, even Druids can regress to a feral state.
