====[[Sylvaneth]]==== The Sylvaneth are forest spirits of the Wanderer Aelfs. Led by [[Everqueen|the goddess Alarielle]], the new treefolk were made from "Soulpods" she created. After Sigmar retreated to his realm, she considered herself a free agent, opposing [[Nurgle]] who seeks to claim the Realm of Life as his own. For some reason, all of Alarielle's soulpods became female Dryads and male Treekin, which makes sense only in the context of using existing models, but when looked at from a lore perspective Alarielle clearly had saved a LOT more female souls, and the only males she saved were the biggest. Lotta jokes that can be made here, hard to decide... Branchwraiths are the unsleeping priestesses of Alarielle, who call the trees to awaken and kill the shit out of the enemies of Alarielle. Later, the Sigmarines aided the Sylvaneth in eradicating a Nurgle infestation they were having leading to them rejoining Order. The damage Nurgle managed to deal was permanent and his forces were sure to be back causing Alarielle to let out a scream which rang through the Realms, letting all beings know "'''NATURE WILL TREEFUCK YOU!'''" in a call of eternal war without surrender. During the Age of Chaos, Alarielle cut off her hand, growing a new one then cultivating the hand into a new Branchwraith Demigod, the replacement for Drycha called The Lady Of Vines. The LoV is Alarielle's favorite daughter (dawww), created in summer and despite any corruption or defeat she burns away the taint to bring optimism and youthfullness despite now being ancient in her own right. She seems to be a replacement for Aliathra from [[The End Times]]. LoV led the bulk of the Sylvaneth. Then, one book after being introduced, the Lady of Vines was killed. Although Alarielle lost the Ariel portion of herself during End Times, she retained the Wood Elf season shifts and everything about her changes as the Realm of Life does. After dying, Alarielle survived as a seed (don't ask questions you know you won't get any answers to) and was planted by the Sigmarines in a place where many of their own died in the hopes of making her a warrior queen that isn't completely insane. With the new release the Sylvaneth range has expanded to include some EPIC models such as: Kurnoth Hunters: Mini (Realative term) treelords that can be fielded in units. Seem to be the new bridge between dryads and treelords (Replacing treekin). There aesthetic is almost identical to the tree lords (Aka awesome) and can take a number of cool weapon options from swords to giant ass bows! Spite Revenants: Look like a cross between a ghost and a vampire...and a tree (Obviously). They represent the more freaky side to the forest and are filled with bravery reducing RAGE! (See Drycha.) Tree Revenants: The REAL wood elves (No seriously they are elves+trees) They are actually the reincarnated "souls" of elves that Alarielle salvaged from the world-that-was and as such retain the martial skill and a little personality from their 'donors'. Branch Wych: The OTHER dryad hero. Swaps out the branchwraith's swirly nipples for a big scythe like weapon. [[Drycha]]: The RAGE tree is back! And this time she has stolen something from the 40k universe. No seriosly! Drycha is now depicted as a medusa like Spite Revenant sporting what can only be described as a "Grey knights Dreadknight made out of wood" As usual she is suitably pissed at everything. Alarielle: Another god tier model. Alarielle is now in her "warrior mode" and looks like a cross between Old World's Ariel and some giant amazon warrior. She has also pinched Orion's spear. Oh and a final minor point... She rides a a HUGE ass beetle (It's like rhino sized). Pretty original. (Genuinely.) The Lady of Vines: Alarielle's literal right hand that she chopped off and raised into a powerful leader. Well, at least now we know her power, as she didn't have any sort of presence until 3E's Echoes of Doom boxset introduced rules for her. With her revival as a badass warrior queen with her pet beetle (who wouldn't want one?) Alarielle leads the Sylvaneth to war against her foes while she allows Drycha to rampage around seeing her as a necessary evil. The Durthu model has been made canon by introducing them as the "Spirits of Durthu" who basically take the roll of Honor Guard treelords for Alarielle. In addition to this the Sylvaneth society has now been opened up showing the Sylvaneth as being divided up into various little families (wargroves) usually with a Treelord Ancient leading it. <gallery> Image:Alarielle At Crystal Lake.jpg|I am the Great and Powerful <s>Wizard of Oz</s> Incarnate of Life!
