High above the towering canopy of the forest lives a race of nimble, reclusive folk, who guard over their homes with great determination. The wood elves of this village are self-sufficient, and live united by a common creed to protect their homeland, at whatever cost. These forest-dwellers may serve as valuable allies...if you manage to convince them of your cause.

I've always loved the idea of tree houses and imagining fantastical settlements hidden within the canopies of towering trees. Imagining the the various kinds of races that would inhabit these tree-villages, their unique culture, their societies has always occupied much of my daydreaming time. So this map serves as a way to interpret a settlement that is built entirely on treetops.

This Elven Tree Loft has three entrances with stairs leading into hollowed-out tree trunks, with bridges connecting to other living spaces that have been constructed on top of trees. Rectangular platforms decked with crossbows have been propped up at various points to provide protection to this settlement.
