Known by other races as "Ghosts," the dark-haired and pale-skinned Drannoth are a secretive human race at home in the husks of abandoned civilizations.

Player-Facing Lore

Identity: The Drannoth are widely discriminated against and often referred to pejoratively as "Ghosts." They are known for their exceptional magical craftsmanship, enchantment, and the sacred duty of guiding lingering souls to rest.
Culture: Their nobility historically adopted Elvish as their primary language to distinguish themselves from commoners. Much of their culture mirrors elven society, as they once venerated the nigh-immortal elves.
The Hidden City: They are rumored to have a great hidden bastion called Zion, which remains warded against discovery.
Notable Groups:
- - Azurians: An ancient subfaction of priestesses and keepers of the Blue Flame.
  - Vel Carvos Family: A noble Drannoth line (Julian, Renavia, Lucia) recently discovered in the Deep Mire swamp, having been magically preserved as trees for over 200 years.
