'''Halduron Brightwing''' is a level 70 elite [[blood elf]] who can found within the [[Sunfury Spire]] of [[Silvermoon City]]. He serves under [[Lor'themar Theron]]<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/townhall/history-be.html</ref> as the [[ranger-general of Silvermoon]], and is both the blood elves' military commander on [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] and leader of the [[Farstriders]].

During the Feast of Winter Veil, Snowballs can be looted from [[Holiday Snow|snow mounds]] on the ground in the [[Alterac Mountains]].
Although he shares the same last name with [[Mayara Brightwing]], there is nothing to support that they are related.

During the rest of the year Snowballs can be made by an engineer using a [[Snowmaster 9000]] at a rate of one Snowball per day.
==Biography==
 
Halduron served under the [[Alliance of Lordaeron]] during the [[Second War]] against the [[Horde]].<ref>[[Tides of Darkness]], pg. 211.</ref> Before the [[Third War]], [[Sylvannas Windrunner]] was the [[ranger-general of Silvermoon]], the highest authority amongst the Farstriders. With her death, a void was left, leaving the [[high elven]] [[ranger]]s without a leader. The Farstriders soon chose Halduron Brightwing as its new leader.<ref>[[Dark Factions]], pg. 152.</ref> As he was a great ranger, he was promoted to ranger-general of Silvermoon, and rules the rangers to this day.<ref>[[Dark Factions]], pg. 154.</ref> At the same time he was promoted, his commanding officer, [[Lor'themar Theron]], was made regent lord of Quel'Thalas. Like Lor'themar, Halduron played a crucial role in protecting [[Quel'Thalas]] from the [[Scourge]] during the re-founding of Silvermoon City, and is privy to the true identity of [[Anveena]].
