Kindreds of Laith-Kourn

Known often as Alters, Shifters or Wild kin, these Elves can adopt aspects of the creatures who dwell within Athel Loren. They are much more isolationist that any other of the Kindreds, and though they see themselves as a Kindred, they live alone and generally do not mix any more with their own than any other Kindreds.

The name Laith-Kourn has evolved from a combination of the Elven root word Lathain, meaning storm, wrath, and gently falling rain that brings eternal sleep, and the name of the Elven god Kurous.

Wood Elf characters can be upgraded to become a member of an Alter Kindred.

Wood Elf Highborn: +35 points

Wood Elf Noble: +25 points

The character's Movement and Initiative are increased to 9 and his Attacks are increased by 1. However, he must fight on foot. A character from the Kindred of Laith-Kourn may not be the army general, nor may he join a unit.
