Wood Elf Culture & Heritage
Forest Dwellers
Wood elves, also known as Silvan elves, live in harmony with nature. They are master archers, skilled hunters, and guardians of the forest. Their names often reflect their deep connection to the natural world.
Naming Traditions
Wood elf names are simpler and more rustic than their high elf cousins. Many wood elves use only a single name without a surname, or adopt descriptive names based on natural elements.
Special Rule: Single Names
Wood elves have a 30% chance of using only a single name without a surname. This reflects their simpler, nature-focused culture where family lineage is less important than individual deeds and connection to the forest.
