The Aviana Sodality (commonly referred to as "Avians") is a scholarly, fraternal order. They take the mantle of the demigoddess Aviana as their own, the messenger raven of Elune, who ascended to godhood by her very wisdom. The Order itself traces a fuzzy ancestry to Aviana's druidic followers, the Druids of the Talon, but after the Third War, became a very distinguishable entity with the inclusion of the Night Elves' new allies among its membership.
