| - Waywatchers are the silent guardians of the glades to Athel Loren. They patrol the ancient forest, hunting and preying on any trespassers who dare violate the peace of their woodland realm. Many waywatchers were first scouts before they took the path of the solitary ranger. Fewer, more wild wood elves, feel the call of the forest coursing through their veins at birth and he or she will feel themselves more comfortable in the arboreal embrace of the woods than in the party of other elves. These elves follow their own way about the forest, lurking alone sometimes for years on end.
- Over time, an Elf may find that he is more comfortable in the forest’s embrace than in the presence of his kin. He will drift further from the halls, spending more and more time in the forest, honing skills of stealth and marksmanship. Many never return from this journey, for there are corners of Athel Loren that are dangerous even to the Elves, yet those who survive are skilled beyond compare and hardened by their experiences.[2a]

| - Over time, an Elf may find that he is more comfortable in the forest’s embrace than in the presence of his kin. He will drift further from the halls, spending more and more time in the forest, honing skills of stealth and marksmanship. Many never return from this journey, for there are corners of Athel Loren that are dangerous even to the Elves, yet those who survive are skilled beyond compare and hardened by their experiences.[2a] Few warriors can match a Waywatcher’s skill with a bow. Should they wish it, these silent stalkers can loose an unerring stream of black-shafted arrows in a heartbeat, or place a single shot precisely in the weak point of a foe’s armour. Furthermore, Waywatchers are highly adept at the arts of disruption and surprise, often appearing silently next to a vulnerable enemy and vanishing as quickly before the body even hits the ground. Thus do any who enter Athel Loren run the risk of being slain without warning by the Waywatchers, cut down by unseen archers or falling prey to their cunningly constructed traps.[2a]

These elves follow their own way about the forest, lurking alone sometimes for years on end. Of those that follow their own way, some never return to the halls of their youth, lives claimed by the dangers found in dark places of Athel Loren. The elves that do eventually return, return hardened and whetted by their experience in the wild. Each waywatcher learns their art through personal experience and thus no two waywatchers are ever the same. Some are talented snipers, whereas others can fire arrows at tremendous speed. Even among the Asrai few can match he honed marksmanship of a waywatcher. The most elite of their order are known as Sentinels.
