Description: The Elk-Riders were an elite light cavalry unit of mounted Rangers that operated out of Sidhe-Praxen. They were made famous during Alexandria's Crusade for serving Alexandria under Kivan Half-Elven. Although there is no organized force of them today, it is possible some Sidhe still retain the skill. Although most Elk Riders were rangers, nothing but convention prevents druids from taking the class.
