Thorn Elf

The Thorn Elves or Nasdorei (Children of the Thorns in Darnassian) are an offshoot race of Night Elves that live in the Myrkwald of the Kingdom of Varland, in Vildskanor. Historically a reclusive race, the Thorn Elves rarely leave their forest, preferring to remain within and focus on nature.

Appearance
Similar to their Night Elven kin, the Nasdorei are relatively tall, ranging from 6 to 7 feet in height and are mostly slim and muscular. However, this is contrasted by their differences in skin tone, eyes and hair colour.

Compared to the dark purple skin of the Night Elves, the Thorn Elves have pale, almost gold, skin, while their hair is commonly a dark brown or brown-red. Meanwhile, their eyes are notable for having 'rose-like' pupils, which is believed to result from their worship of the god Törnudan.

One again similar to the Kaldorei, the Thorn Elf males have a tendency to grow long, bushy beards and eyebrows. Additionally, many Nasdorei men are large and bulky, similar to the Jötnar of Vildskanor's humans, though the elves believe this is because these men have been gifted with the strength of the bear god, Bjärn.
