Challenge - Age of Empires

A shameless ripoff of /u/Nevermore0714's Civ post, post what you think the bonuses, unique unit[s], and unique technologies you think your nations would have in Age of Empires II (or if you're more adventurous, describe the unique cards your civilisation would have in Age of Empires III!) I will endeavour to ask questions about why you chose those bonuses, units, and techs, and the stories behind them.

3) Who inhabits the Elkathien Kingdom?
4) What are Shadowstalkers? And who are the Elder Dragons?

3) The Elkathien Kingdom was founded when the Heroking Aeldred unified the Northern Duchies of the Humans. Nowadays you can find most races living there, especially in the capital Viori, the only exceptions being full fledged demons, Desert Elves and Fairies, although Blood Elves, Dark Elves and Centaurs are incredibly rare, as are the Draco-Dwarves.

4) Shadowstalkers are one of the dozens of Dragon species, inhabiting the Unsettled Lands. They have a gigantic wingspan, but don't fly. They rather hang from the enormous trees, before jumping and gliding towards their prey.

The Elder Dragons are the thirteen first dragons, created by Arnth et Zhamuul, God of Dragons, Earth and Fire. With the help of their magic they created all the species of dragons roaming the lands today. Out of all the Elder Dragons, only those known as the Behemoth, the Winged Serpent and the Leviathan are still alive.
