:confused: :rofl:

I don't understand why they call it LeShay rather than Leshay. It makes it looks like it's some kind of French word (since English speakers always write French words by adding a "Le" in front of them, like Morgan LeFay for la fée Morgane). But it's sure not one (closest I can find is chais, which designate a wine storehouse).

As far as I know, the etymology of leshay is Russian in origin. Leshay, or Leshiy, is the local name of dryads.

Maybe it's supposed to be pronounced differently. There are many words and names in the D&D universe that have weird spellings.

But a leShay I have to say is one bad ass race according to all it's abilities in the ELH. I think they could definately give some of Faerun's famous people a run for their money. Especially since leShays hold grudges :D

But yes, buy the ELH. It's fun :D Lots of fun :smirk:
