New customization options for blood elves and void elves

Can you blame them for putting them in the internment camps? They killed many of their humans and even tore families apart. Even raided Stormwind city to the point the humans needed to retreat.

No, I don’t blame them for that.
I blame them for how they ended up treating the orcs whilst in interment camps. They used them as slaves, as toys for their own amusement, beat them, insulted them.

Aka, they fostered a hatred between the two all the while having the orcs imprisoned, again, even Thrall was treated like that, and he was just a toddler during the wars.

In a sense, they encouraged a continueing war between the two.

That’s true. And I have to blame Tyrande for that. Let’s be honest she’s the whole reason why the Night Elves are a mess. I hate to say this to any of her fans but I surely hope she will die and then Maiev can become their leader together with Shandris.

Edit: let’s face it Tyrande’s fear was to become worse than Azshara. After how she tried to kill Sira in Shadows Rising with no remorse even after Sira told her she’s in pain and god knows what she’s gonna do in Shadowlands her nightmare became reality.

I never liked Tyrande either… Even in Warcraft 3 she was a B…

I don’t think Maiev is any better.
Nor Shandris.
Now, Jarod Shadowsong, that I can say yes to.

Or Mordent Evenshade. Anyone is better than useless Tyrande at this point.

What happened to her now when she can’t stalk Illidan anymore?

Like in legion she treated us like a sack of patatos and was like Malfurion my beloved were are you! You what are you waiting for lets gooo!!! I cant believe someone this unless needs to help me with finding my husband!!! ahem inhales REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

She’s in the new book Shadows Rising. She joined the Night Elf forces in Mount Hyjal (Nordrassil), I think the Night elves moved back there. I had hoped they would go for Feralas, Eldre’thalas would have been better as a capital and there’s also feathermoon stronghold and a portal to the emerald dream.

Edit: apparently they also are beginning to cut their ties with the Alliance as they no longer answer to Anduin’s letters. And yes Tyrande might be joining the Alliance in the Shadowlands but she’s doing It for her own persona not for them. All she wants now is Sylvanas dead and won’t stop until it’s gonna happen. And also it was stated the Night Warrior is driving her crazy for vengeance even more and it darkens her every time

And who can blame her for that… Genn wants her also dead. Genn lost his son And Tyrande many of her people and her homeland.

It’s understandable but Tyrande is going too far. Sira never did anything to her and she cut her throat in the book but obviously it didn’t kill her. She’s nothing but hatred and revenge. Hopefully this will turn her into a villain so she can die.

First I want her to kill Sylvannas and then the hatred and vengeance would be too great so we need to kill her. And it would be nice to have a alliance character to go evil for a change.

I dont think Sylvanas will die. Players love her too much (I only like her because she’s a Windrunner and I liked the old Sylvanas pre-end Wrath and onwards aka before she made the bargain with the jailor). I think she will become the new jailor as it was confirmed he is the final boss of the expansion, so if he will die she might take on that role and will stay in Shadowlands, it’s 100% her story won’t continue after this expac.

I believe the nelf spying on belf is a consequence of the Draenei starting experience.

In that experience the Draenei (whom ally with the nelf) discover sunfury belf in cahoots with the legion, or demons at least.

They send spies to sabotage belf lands. Now at this point not even Silvermoon knew what Kael was doing, the higher echelons had some concerns however that he wasn’t making good on his promised land shctick.

Point is nelf could have avoided the whole situation by going to Silvermoon officials (whom were neural to them) and going “so what’s up with your dudes hanging with demons on bloodmyst?” At this point lor themar could have confirmed those belf were not agents of Silvermoon and were part of the princes lot, whom they’d effectively post contact with, and the two could have actually joined forces to kick the sunfury in.

Instead they decided to assume Silvermoon was complicit despite Silvermoon itself making no such political manouvers nor appearing to have any familiarity with the tech the sunfury were excavating in bloodmyst, and I this situation it is not surprising they defended themselves and it set a sour note for their relationship with the alliance. Then the horde comes in to help, and expresses “yeah, those night elves, gotta hate em”.

Blood elf go horde because alliance ask questions after firing shots at way too many points in their history. Had the nelf been a bit more cautious in their response the outcome would have been massively different.

I am starting to doubt this a little.

For the sole reason that we learn from A’dal, that everything that happened, everything that will happen, was already known by Velen who had foretold the events.

M’uru’s torture at the hands of the Blood Elves, their return to glory and redemption, everything was foretold.

So at the very least, the Draenei did not ask to send anything to Quel’thalas, that would not make sense.

Let’s see.

Fair? Yes
Reasonable? Yes
Is a basic super-god with super-god abilities? No.

Right - where do we sign him up?

But yeaa let’s ask for Natural hair colors first. ^^ The KT hair colors.

The Draenei didn’t need to tell them to, only relay their experiences to their new allies. It wouldn’t be remiss for nelf to act on info regarding their highborne kin consorting with demons without a prompt.

Also, knowing the future does not mean doing nothing to facilitate it. Perhaps Velen knew that if told, the night elves would act on that information, so that’s why they were told.

I’d take Velens future sight with a grain of doubt. If we assume he knows much of everything that will occur then questions begin to get raised over why he doesn’t warn innocents of impending massacre for example. Then again it could set the spotlight for him to become a nuanced character who is ensuring a version of events “the future, so he believes” as sold to him by Naaru to ensure the Light reigning supreme comes to pass, and these tragedies are necessary to ensure that future.

That would be pretty awesome.

Not sure why I’m posting this as the convo rarely lingers on other customisation :rofl: but these are the customisations I would personally like to see for blood elves and void elves down the line:

BE:

  1. Longer, glam rock sort of hairstyles for males and females. Faux/shaved undercuts, Jareth from Labyrinth, etc etc.

  2. The circular runic markings on the face that Mr. Man has on The Burning Crusade box art. Perhaps similar markings on the arms and hands as well. These can be red, gold, or purple/blue in colour.

  3. Option for notched ears, scars, anything that makes an elf look like a survivor of a massacre.

  4. Sparkles of Light or arcane in their hair.

  5. Farstrider style war paint. A horizontal stripe across the eyes, or vertical or diagonal slashes/daubs down one or both eyes. Red, gold, green, black, or blue in colour. Can be slightly glittery. :eyes:

VE (and I’m focusing more solely on Voidy options here):

  1. More edgy hairstyles - the punk rock to the BE glam rock.

  2. Orange eyes, something more Old God-esque.

  3. Options for eldritch Void disfigurement, e.g. tendrils available for all hairstyles (but can be removed), smaller void-touched tendrils from the jaw (something like Draenei), red eyes that open up every now and then across the body.

  4. Same circular runic markings that I listed for BE, but colours are blue, purple, or white.

  5. Ear notches and scars - and adding the ‘half-elf’ ear sizes is a good idea, too.

(I know you are only focusing on void options)
But adding some natural hairstyles also would be nice. long natural hairstyles / Braided hairstyles. And natural hair colors.
