Leonin (AoC Universe)

Leonin is a race of lion-like humanoids native to Middle-Earth. Little else is known about them, including where they live as a people, but according to the unicorns they were the invaders responsible for attacking Elmhurst and kidnapping its fairy stewards. The unicorns also re-call fighting against the leonin and driving back their oppressive assault, for which they were rewarded by the fairies with the gift of magic aptitude.

Trivia

 * 'Leonin' is borrowed from Magic: The Gathering.
 * Much like the MTG version, AoC leonin live in a clan-based society. However, not much is known about that part of Middle-Earth as the War of the Ancients, and its subsequent Sundering, took place in Old Vigrith.
