Sylvanas gave specific orders to Nathanos to do these things as part of terror tactics. Same way she gave specific orders to him during the war campaign quests.
She is not being all kind and offers those NElves a “second chance”, they are raised as a terror weapon and are being manipulated into doing what bests suits her ends. Or some could be willing participants for their own reasons.
p.s. Lor’themar threatened to kill her if she raised any Blood Elves… 
Honestly? It might stop 'em from getting ressed as Forsaken. What’s the point in spending magical energy on someone you know’s gonna just tell you to bugger off after all?
No promises about bone puppets though.
Bone puppets are very legal and very cool, just ask Umbric. Alliance really endorses this message 
It does raise the question of where ones ‘life’ begins as a Forsaken.
Does your Human life count, or just your post resurection life?
That’s the problem though, isn’t it?
Abominations and the like make the ‘free will’ argument pretty bogus. I wonder how common it is to volunteer for that fate… 
Abominations appear to be entirely new intelligences, so not really infringing on any free will of the past people is it? Unless you’re proposing that being created at all is violation of free will but that turns into a “I NEVER ASKED TO BE BORN, BANSHEE MOM” sort of thing.
Dont they use intelligent brains to make Abominations?
They are more like amalgamations of everyone they are made out of, right?
Looking at Thaddius as the prime example.
Thaddius is Scourge made, and fairly unqiue.
All the other abominations we see, are dead meat stitched together with a rather dumb mind.
I mean the abomination itself is a Scourge invention.
As undead, they still need souls to animate them, right? Those souls have to come from somewhere, and it’s not very nice to just take them without permission.
Well bone puppets don’t, for one. It’s possible that abominations, being this patchwork (pun) body amalgamation are, in fact, soulless.
Though I doubt there’s any specific lore on that.
p.s. remove void elves.
In the Southern Barrens its said Abominations require an intelligent (albeit lobotomized) brain.
Do they need souls to animate them?
Think of all the abominations you encounter in the game, have you ever met one that is unhappy?
‘The undead are beings that have died and have had their souls trapped between life and death.’
First sentence on their wowpedia page. Make of that what you will.
Preach
Thaddius. Patchwerk was pretty angry in Acherus too.
Isn’t Thaddius constructed in a similar way to most abominations, as in they take a bunch of corpses and just put them together? Because Thaddius is basically described as a prison for a bunch of souls of dead women and children.
Void Elves are the reason role-playing in Stormwind is obnoxious. I only log on these days when there’s a friend online who I can rp with.
ps: orcs and humans also way too popular. We don t have the 90s anymore.
Stormwind has been a punchline for years.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha… deep breath …hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Good one.
Ah, fair enough. Feels like the Warden/Watcher story is being written by two competing people.
Continuity exists to enhance the story, not tie the hands of the writers
