High Order draw on a ley line for 10% health and mana regeneration — 30 seconds if none is found, 15 minutes if one is. Wind Blessed (passive): 1% increased melee, ranged and spellcasting haste.

Both factions

The new race, from Zephras Isle. One ancestry, two factions, and the faction choice decides a class and a racial.
