Elves are a wondrous race: lithe, tall, beautiful, long-lived and magical. For the most part they are feared and distrusted by humans, though some live in the cities amongst men and offer their services as minstrels and archers in return for a high fee. Though Elves become rarer in the Old World each year, there are still some roaming on the trackless paths of the Drakwald Forest and the Forest of Shadows.

Elves sensibly tend to avoid the ruins of Mordheim, for in the City of the Damned there is little to attract that fey and strange race, but sometimes they are hired by treasure hunters, for few can match their skill with a bow, or their inhuman quickness and agility. The senses of an Elf are much keener than any human’s, and they make excellent scouts.

May be Hired: Mercenaries and Witch Hunters may hire Elf Rangers. Warbands which include Dwarfs may hire Elf Rangers, but must pay 40 gold crowns after each battle instead of 20.

Rating: An Elf Ranger increases the warband’s rating by 12 points plus 1 point for each Experience point he has.

Elf Ranger

5 4 5 3 3 1 6 1 8
Weapons/Armor: Elf bow, sword and Elven cloak.

Skills: An Elf Ranger may choose from Shooting and Speed skills when he gains a new skill. In addition, there are several skills unique to Elf Rangers as detailed below, which he can choose instead of normal skills. Note that these special skills can only be acquired through experience. They are not possessed by a new recruit.

Special Rules:

  • Seeker: When rolling on the Exploration chart, the Elf Ranger allows you to modify one dice roll by -1/+1.
  • Excellent Sight: Elves have eyesight unmatched by mere humans. The Elf Ranger spots Hidden enemies from two times as far away as other warriors (i.e., twice his Initiative value in inches).
  • Elven Skill - Fey: Hostile magic spells will not affect the Elf on a D6 roll of 4+.
  • Elven Skill - Luck: The Elf Ranger is blessed by Lileath, the Elven goddess of luck. Once per game he may re-roll any dice roll he makes (but not one made by other members of the warband).
