One such Night elf is the Cenarion field researcher Nodda. While being raised and trained as a druid, Nodda has always gravitated towards research and exploration of the unusual. The young elf's inquisitive nature and seemingly inexhaustible supply of energy often conflicted with the more laid back druid teachers, which resulted in Nodda being frequently shifted between the mentors.

During the height of the Emberpyre crisis, Nodda was appointed to lead the research team that would study the elemental phenomena and creatures that cropped out all over Azeroth and threatened both nature and the lives of its inhabitants. While Nodda's brilliance lead to an eventual breakthrough, which solved many riddles and answered most of the important questions, the researcher's unconventional, sometimes radical methods riled up many of the senior druids of the Cenarion circle.

Once the project was deemed concluded, Nodda was reassigned to a mundane research duty in Desolace, once again being spirited away out of sight. This time though the connections formed with the Brigade and its own researchers lead to a quiet, behind the scene negotiation, which saw Nodda transferred to the Brigade, an organization probably better equipped to satisfy the elf's immense curiosity. We shall see what kind of adventures lie in front of our young, daring and 'slightly' unconventional researcher.

I have finished this piece a couple of months ago during the culmination of the Emberpyre crusade event that saw the Brigade and its allies confront the fiery elmental forced invading Azeroth, while simultaneously trying to research its origins and answer important questions behind it. While working on the piece, I tried to shake things up and give the scene a slight angle. I have enjoyed both of the versions, so I refined them and post them both. Which one do you prefer? I hope you enjoy the final outcome.
