Day Three of The Lore of the Aos Sí World Tour!

The Aélfar, House Moontree, are one of the noble houses in Tír na nÓg. Commonly called The Aélfolk, Aélves, or shifters, the Aélfar hail from The Vale of Enon. The seat of their power resides in the city of Moon Grove. They are led by the Elder of the Aélfar who heads House Moontree. The Aélfolk are a religious, reverent people whose affinity for nature creates their strict moral code. Their union with nature makes them the swiftest and most sure-footed hunters in the dominions of Tír na nÓg. The Aélfolk, were born of the mists giving them unnatural swiftness against the fleet-footed soldiers of darkness. The Sigil of House Moontree is a moontree on an oaken shield.

While the High Born Aélfar resemble the aristocracy of the Tuatha Dé in their dress, they are rather different in demeanor. The Aélfar are a quiet culture, who speak when it is necessary, and do not concern themselves with frivolity.

The Aélfar have a sacred bond with the Moon and the Moon’s familiar, the wolf. The Timberwolf of the Vale is one of the most ferocious predators in all of Tír na nÓg. Some are so large that a smaller Aélfar adult could use them as a mount. Some of the elite warriors, the Mistwalkers do in fact ride their familiar into battle. Many of the same group can shift from their humanoid form into that of a Timberwolf, making them fierce combatants.
