  • 2,830 years ago - The Troll Wars.
    • The first 100 Humans to be trained in magic are taught by the High Elves.
    • First collectives of High Elf warriors and hunters gather to help fight the Troll threat.
  • 530 years ago - Official formation of the Farstriders.

They are the second official organization, coming after the Magisters but before the Blood Knights.

The First War - For the most part, High elves remained out of the first war. Some may have participated for various reasons, but it's highly unlikely that they involved themselves unless they were in the area.

  • 24 years ago

The Second War - With the Humans begging for the assistance of the Elves, the High Elves join the war efforts of the Alliance and fight back against the Orcs. Their archers and magic prove to be a great asset for the Alliance and with their assistance, they win the Second War. During this time, the High elves officially joined the Alliance.

The Fall of Quel'Thalas - The Scourge, led by Arthas, drove their forces into the Elven lands of Quel'Thalas, destroying and killing a majority of the people and land. Evidence of this attack involves the Dead Scar which runs straight through the center of what remains. King Anasterian Sunstrider was killed by Arthas and his son, Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider took over. Sylvanas Windrunner was also killed during this time, slain by Arthas and turned into a banshee. During this time, the Sunwell was corrupted by Arthas and the High Elves begun to suffer from magic withdrawal.

Return from Outland - A squad of Elves returns from Outland where a large army, led by Kael'thas, have been. They teach the remaining Elves how to absorb Fel and, in doing so, caused them to gain fel green eyes and turn them into what is now known as Blood Elves. The blood elves officially split from the Alliance and Lady Liadrin becomes the first Blood Knight.

  • 7 years ago

Silvermoon is rebuilt largely from the aid of the Magisters who "practically rebuilt the city overnight". Some of the minor construction still goes on to present day.

  • 4 years ago

The Blood Elves, desperate for allies after the betrayal of the Alliance, join the Horde with the help of Sylvanas after defeating one of the threats in the area to prove themselves. Purification of the Sunwell - The Shattered Sun Offensive assault the Sunwell Plateau and reclaim it from Kael'thas and his men. During this assault, they fight Kil'jaeden back from gaining entry into Azeroth and drop the Heart of a Naaru into it, successfully purifying it and freeing the Blood Elves from their Magic Addiction.

Note: There were no Blood Elves before the Third War, before then they were High Elves.
