Description The Arrowsong Tribe is regarded as the Shepherd Tribe because it leads all tribes having descended from it. As a leading tribe housing the fighting elite, they tend to have powerful soldiers at their fingertips.
This is an Arrowsong Templar, whose order once held theater in the Temple of Noble Blood. She is seen holding a nodachi in one hand and conjuring a ball of pure white light in the other. Their armor usually has gold or silver feather-shaped scales making up the Samurai-themed armor, and their weapon varies. They are said to implore both sunlight and moonlight to protect their people from the ravages they face. To the point, the Templars are in fact Woodland Elf Paladins, having a connection between the Light and Elune. This order also held an importance in servitude during the Twin Boughs War, where the Thassamari wanted to take the Temple as a trophy for their expansionism.
Arrowsong Templars swear to uphold their oath to their superiors, but most of their people have joined the Alliance. As an Alliance faction now, they would clash with old rivals - Blood Elves or High Elf Forsaken - and their new arrival for allies, the Horde. The Templars and Blood Knights would clash for control of the Temple of Noble Blood, while the Forsaken Dark Rangers are seen as a danger for spawning skeletons from felled Alliance soldiers or charming stragglers to do their bidding. They also fight the Forsaken, for fear that they are here to exhume the remains of many an elf having fallen in the Twin Boughs War, so they may bolster the Horde's numbers.
Somewhere in the trees is my dog Strider, who seems to show a favoritism for my drawings.

FYI, I was considering drawing another Banished portrait and started drawing the feathers, but it was because of that (and the fact that paladins are associated with the Light and angels, which have feathers) got me to draw the Arrowsong Templar holding a ball of Light instead.
