Wraiths of the Frozen Heart (Dryads)

Wraiths of the Frozen Heart (Dryads) are a Wood Elves Regiments of Renown unit introduced in The Twisted and the Twilight DLC. Exiled on their own accord from the frosty cage of the Winterheart, these Dryads carry the biting chill of their home realm.

Description
Dryads are spiteful creatures with hearts akin to shards of ice. In the soul of a Dryad, there is neither room nor regard for compassion or mercy, merely an uncompromising dedication to Athel Loren that makes even the most heartfelt vows of Elf or Man seem trivial by comparison. To harm the forest is to invoke a deadly and unyielding vengeance that ends only when the transgressor's body has been ruined and broken. Only a fool deliberately offers insult to a Dryad, but alas, these spirit-maids are so utterly different to mortal creatures that offence is often taken whether it was intended or not. Few mortals make such a mistake twice, and then only if the individual in question is either very lucky or very swift.

Attributes

 * ↑ Damage Dealer: This unit has a strong emphasis on dealing damage. If fighting it, make sure to take it out before it can get into firing or melee range.
 * ↑ Forest Spirit: The spirits of Athel Loren are able to shrug off most mundane attacks, causing magical damage in turn before melting into the forest from whence they came.
 * ↑ Vanguard Deployment: This unit can deploy in an expanded deployment area, allowing it to start the battle within striking distance of the enemy - or somewhere unexpected.
 * ↑ Frenzy: Units with frenzy cause more damage while their leadership is high.

Abilities

 * Frostbite
 * Frenzy

Trivia
The unit's name suggests a connection to Atylwyth, the perpetually frozen part of Athel Loren.
