Maybe instead of smelling and sniffing it will be feet this time.

All of the dialogue will be them commenting how you have boots on (unless you are a tauren, troll or draenei) and how you should take them off and how big or small your toes are etc.

I won’t remember an off-hand line I put in some obscure quest dialogue several years ago, but Telaryn sure will

perhaps the Cataclysm!Teldrassil quest where we learn of the existence of Ireroot, a plant that is naturally violent towards demonic taint and will sprout vines that crush the victim to death when it senses fel magic nearby

[Aelruil-argent-dawn]

warlocks and demon hunters hate this simple trick

[Telaryn-argent-dawn (Telaryn)]

turns you into meat + blood splatter spell effect

[Shadowtwili-argent-dawn (Shadowtwili)]

Yeah, but I still think they should be customisation options.

Lepers for normal gnomes.
Mecha for junk gnomes.

@Kaitylinn-argent-dawn

Yes…hahaha…

Are u ok?

wouldn’t you like to know

[Loras-argent-dawn]

See, nerd.

[Aerilen-argent-dawn (Aerilen)]

Telaryn knows lore, but ask him about how to tie his shoe laces… and he gets out the velcro shoes. The knowledge came at a cost…

[Telaryn-argent-dawn (Telaryn)]

I was at the bar and when the music stopped, everyone could hear me rip my velcro wallet open…

@Aelruil-argent-dawn

we’re building the new WoW team out of AD forum posters. who’s getting what role?

I’m content plugging holes in the worldbuilding and brainstorming future developments amounting to major lore updates tucked away in a throwaway npc line, such as Drustvar turning isolationist and religiously repressive once they ran out of witches, failing their own purity tests.

@Telaryn-argent-dawn

Ireroot, a plant that is naturally violent towards demonic taint and will sprout vines that crush the victim to death when it senses fel magic nearby

Well, that’s one scenic hiking route forever scrubbed from the vacation destination list. Can it be mailed in a flower pot, though? For reasons.

@Telaryn-argent-dawn

wouldn’t you like to know

An entire wall full of yellow post-its. Then it’s onto the wall with the blue ones…

[Atahalni-argent-dawn (Atahalni)]

Tel-Abim confirmed.

That, or Donkey Kong and WoW universes are being merged.

[Demoniaco-argent-dawn]

I, too, love the forklift brand known as [Shath’yar] GRAHTURH’CHKTCHZ

[Aerilen-argent-dawn (Aerilen)]

No high vis and no hard hats? These monkeys really are bananas.

[Raynardo-argent-dawn]

I don’t see any year number on that Blizzcon logo so I’m feeling a bit sus here.

[Demoniaco-argent-dawn]

@Raynardo-argent-dawn

I don’t see any year number on that Blizzcon logo so I’m feeling a bit sus here.

Try to focus on any of the people in the picture or the forklift brand marks.

[Raynardo-argent-dawn]

I know that, I was just going for the more peculiar angle over the blatant skinwalkers.

[Nerathion-argent-dawn (Nerathion)]

Everyone keeps joking about how there’ll be a new Elf variation, so Blizzard will do this extremely subversive decision to make a new Tauren variation, just to keep us on our toes.

[Shogganosh-argent-dawn]

We’ve got cattle people, bison people, yak people and moose people.

What next, buffalo or kudu people?

[Levey-argent-dawn (Levey)]

Return of the fremen sand gnomes, topical because dune 2 this spring.

[Nerathion-argent-dawn (Nerathion)]

That just means it can’t be sand gnomes because it’d be topical. It needs to be 5 years out of date minimum!
