Horde-like
You know, because Sylvanas.

Whatâs Sylvanasâ backstory, again?
People have been calling her Lich Queen and comparing her to the Scourge for years.
SoâŚno. Scourge-like. Like I said.

Except, they arenât sentient - the only dead touched are that of Devilsaurs to my knowledge. Moreover, that is not what my inquiry was about. Instead, I cannot find any information pertaining to the Renâdorei being ordered to follow Alleriaâs teachings. They follow her and Locus Walkerâs guidance voluntarily to simmer down the malign influences of the Void, while also making use of the knowledge theyâve obtained from Drathirâs Void research.
Anduin Wrynn says: It may take time for these void elves to earn the trust of some in our ranks. But so long as they adhere to your teachings, they are welcome in the Alliance.

Read a quest, itâs literally their introduction to the Alliance.
They are sentient. The children of a Wild God, as a matter of fact. And even if they werenât the descendants of a god, raptors are also sentient in this setting. And even in spite of that the way he justifies it is directly out of Darâkhan Drathirâs handbook.

So given how their stay in the Alliance hinges on following Alleriaâs teachings as per Anduinâs own word, do you think Alleria is the one teaching them to corrupt and reanimate the children of a god?

Now imagine the howling if the Horde were corrupting and reanimating Cenarius (you know, child of a Wild God) with the most corruptive magic in the entire setting with the specific intent of using him as a weapon against the Night Elves.
But I guess because itâs a Zandalari wild god involved itâs not a big deal right, Human Paladin Posters?

High elf, then turned to banshee, rebelled against Lich King, now she has completely free will and is Warchief of the Horde.
Your point?
Scourge has not been relevant to the story for years (unless you count DK questline in Legion), so comparing things void elves do while fighting Horde to Scourge instead of Horde that is doing pretty much the same thing is not the correct way.
Aren´t they corrupting Ancients to fight against night elves? And they are reanimating night elves to fight against night elves.

Weird how Sylvanas up to and including BfA has been dogged by âLich Queenâ comments then since theyâre ânot relevantâ.
Unless their relevance to the present day story is irrelevant (which it is) and whether theyâre Scourge-like or not has no bearing on what the Scourge is currently up to.
Umbricâs, and the Void Elfâs actions, are Scourge-like. Thatâs the truth. The only reason you donât want to accept that is because you want to protect âyour sideâ from the accurate comparison.
Yeah, and just look at the enormous whining about them doing so. There are still people complaining about the Night Elf reanimations.

They have Lore, same as Blood Elves, but ones that defected from the Horde. making for interesting back stories as they are the only current race in game that you can play as recently defected from one side to the other.
As they should.

Your lack of respect for the Night Elves as characters rather than ideals is noted.
Empty, meaningless words matter little to me Elenthas.

First of all Iâm not a night elf fan personally. Iâm a Tauren fan.
Secondly, switching sides for the reasons that were stated so far is cheap, shallow and nonsensical writing no matter how you put it.
If a better reason was given, Iâd not mind personally. But this is a child-level of writing.

Were reasons given? From screenshots I saw it was âwe have our reasons but no time to explain now.â
We see more insight into Siraâs mindset now that the Warfront is live, who originally said that quote you mentioned on beta.
She was promised aid by Tyrande, yet she died alone. Her final words before death were her realizing she was used as a pawn to die for nothing. In the Warfront when she faces off against Maiev, she unloads all her pent-up hatred at her â leaving her to lead the wardens, dying on her useless mission, hopeless and broken.
She was betrayed by Elune, Tyrande and Maiev (in her view, at any rate) and undeath warps your perspective canonically. Add a lot of hatred that has been building up over the years and a broken spirit from Teldrassil and accepting a second chance at getting back at those who always wronged you.
Far as someone being raised goes, Sira has one of the most convincing cases so far.

Forgot to grab screenshots of her verbal duel with Maiev in the warfront, but she doubles down on the betrayal aspect for flipping and unloading all her thoughts on Maiev since Cata.

When I made this character in wotlk, I specifically remember having to reason out why she wouldnât just kill herself for being an abomination as soon as she awoke, followed by reasoning out why sheâd stay in the Ebon Blade instead of helping nelves on the Ashenvale/Horde borders.
The lore Delaryn and Sira got is such bad writing that even my inexperienced, new-to-RP brain avoided taking that path, as I knew even then that it was awful storytelling.
Then I play the quest line and they get up and just randomly join their killers and I facepalmed as hard as I do every time I see hearthstones used by NPCs.
Letâs not pretend Forsaken Kaldorei are anything but trash-tier writing. Uruk is right, as he usually is.

Whyâre they any different to Forsaken humans?
