The Bloodwood (1e)
 |
THE BLOOD WOOD¸ HOME TO THE BLOOD ELVES OF BARSAIVE...
A young elf stood before me¸ his pain-wracked face and body covered with thorns. He knelt down and opened his arms as if to embrace me. Dark red blood¸ rich with life¸ seeped down each thorn and gathered at the tip. The drops swelled almost to bursting¸ then fell to the ground.
The Blood Wood sourcebook leads Earthdawn players and gamemasters into the depths of the Blood Wood¸ one of Barsaive's most mysterious and dangerous places. It provides a detailed look at the Elven Court¸ including Queen Alachia's palace; the five great elven noble houses; the blood warders and exolashers¸ powerful magicians and elite warriors who serve the elf queen; and the many different regions of the vast forest where the blood elves live. It also includes descriptions and statistics for several new creatures¸ as well as rules for playing blood elf characters.
