Met during The War Within, the haranir story comes to light in Midnight. Serving as ancient guardians of the rootways, they are led by a council of elders. Ferocious, watchful guardians, the haranir keep an ever-present vigil over the wild domains of their long-absent goddess, in hopes that she might one day return. Some haranir choose to break their lingering connection to join the Shul'ka-defenders against horrors within Harandar. A young haranir, known as Orweyna, is one of those with a very strong connection to her goddess, leading her beyond the bounds of her home and against the haranir traditions of seclusion.

Orweyna: A young haranir, Orweyna was first introduced in The War Within. Her race is little known and has remained reclusive deep under the roots of the world trees. She will be pivotal in introducing us to her people, their culture, and what they are about. Despite being young, she answers the call of her goddess to go where she's led-even if it means incurring the ire of her people.

An unfamiliar people from a forgotten time, Haranir will arrive with a variety of customizations available to them. They can be adorned with bioluminescent paint on their face and bodies in a variety of patterns that can be selected when customizing your character.

Stay tuned here for more information in the weeks to come!
