World of Warcraft®

Wardens: I'd imagine the wardens are guardians of the druids' barrows; and double as prison guards when the need arrises. The barrows are powerful places; there to amplify or contain immense magical energies - hence the barrows and their guardians would be a good choice to keep the dangerously powerful NE villainy (ie., Illidan) under lock and key.

Or then again, for all we know the Wardens were formed simply as a response to Illidan needing incarceration - he might have been their only prisoner.

Wardens also capture criminals and carry out executions. Their jurisdictions extends beyond the barrows, they're more than just guards.

Wardens, as has been stated, are the higher echelon police force.

They're not your every day guards. They are reserved for special or violent cases.

They're also not new. They were the ones that watched over Illidan(A time period of 10,000 years).

They were created right after the WotA, so they're "new" in the sense that they do not predate the War of the Ancients.


Also, in regard to night elves not being "evangelical", I believe (at least back in the beta) I read about some Gilnean Worgen converting to the worship of Elune. The way the night elves dealt with this may be evidence of the level of evangelism in their religion. I'll try to track down some information, I think it had something to do with the Worgen joining the sentinels out in Feralas.
