Can we have MORE customization options for Blood Elves?

Correction of my earlier thread. NOT a troll post this time, I swear!

So.

Can we have more customization options? Like Asian features for Blood Elves? Maybe Tatoos? Maybe some metal jewelry like the Nightborne? Would be nice if the new Bloodelf-Nightborne connection was reflected ingame, like a syncretism between the two cultures.

If you mean the option for an ‘‘epicanthic fold’’ and black hair ,

I would be against it because that would ‘‘humanize’’ them

Having a monk class, but no Asian features is cultural appropriation

Only if we get more customizations for night elves too

Here’s some inspiration:

That would be nice.

It means my character is teached by the Pandaren?

Monk is not about Asia, it is elemental bending in its core

Well it is about

  • elemental bending and Fistfight
  • blessing of ‘‘wild gods’’ ( celestials of pandaria )

Cannot get more Asia then this?

I unilaterally declare the discussion about monk inspiration over and suggest focussing on the original topic.

I know elves like to feel special, but can we go a single day without them complaining about wanting to look more pretty?

Elves are based of mythology

where they were european-ish and some had brown skin

making them asian would be a cultural inapropiation for european

Night elves already have some Asianish features and their culture is based on Japan.

Nightelves are ‘‘pagan’’ and oriental visuals

See Cernunnos

Haven’t Void Elves gotten enough attention recently?

A nice idea, apart from a single proud nightborne who wouldn’t tarry with most lowborns blood elves. Need I mention her name? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I am all up for it though. If Lor’themar and Thalyssra fit each other perfectly, I can’t see the reason why the others couldn’t.

As for customization, both us received/will receive a batch of those. Same goes for many core races, so let’s wait until every one of them had a bit of something and then should we have another turn. Round Robin’s not over yet.

I mean… I’m always for more customization. For all races.
But… How about we first take care of those allied races that still haven’t received proper new customization?

Another Night elf asking for the highborne options while it does not suit their nature.

/facepalm

Also, I am all up for the customizations, however, I’d prefer more unique customizations. Like braids, runic tattoos, and etc.

For Asian inspired elves, we already have the Nightborne.

Technically, Night Elves allowed the Highborne back into their society around Cataclysm, which is the reason why Night Elves can even be Mages. With Highborne being part of Night Elf society again, why would it not suit them?

Sentinel Stillbough says: You show some nerve coming to Teldrassil , Highborne. Your kind are unwelcome here. We have not forgotten the War of the Ancients or the minds behind it.

Archmage Mordent Evenshade says:The lure of power is great. Mistakes were made.

Sentinel Stillbough says: And we would not see those mistakes repeated. Return to your exile.

Archmage Mordent Evenshade says: I will not return until I am heard. There is too much at stake. There is a change on the wind, and we cannot ignore it. I have traveled from the dust and ruin of the past to come to an accord. The time may soon come when the kal’dorei require the knowledge and skill we have to offer. I will wait, Sentinel… but I will have my audience.

The Highborne were accept with a deal to mentor the young Kal’dorei magi of the ways of the arcane, playable Night elf magi are not Highborne themselves, they are just students of the Highborne magi.

We always look pretty. But there is no harm in looking even prettier. :heartpulse::heartpulse:
