Be as that may, there are current playable races that do not have the best historical track record either.
Redemption is a thing. And the path to it can be rocky but achievable.
Maybe with Visions of NâZoth the Faithless can see that old gods and their peons are not a good idea.
I wonder how much this friendship benefits, as zandalars send their criminal population into exile, where the Sethraks and Vulperas live.
Imagine how friendly it would be if the United States sent its prison population to Canada.
To roam freely.
Sethraks use the worgen rig.
They are a possibility and are no more inconceivable than a group of blood elves leaving Silvermoon, being painted purple and ending up in the alliance.
And if still, it offends the horde, which sethraks are then in the horde, for it would be a waste they be forgotten as NPCâs in BfA.
And please! Do not give anything to the alliance because of we already have enough junkgnomes, kultirans and purple blood elves of Silvermoon.

Very fair and stemming from some canon content.
But what if Vorrik manages to reunite his people? Devoted and Faithless as one.
How would they join the Horde then? Not that it would necessarily go this way. Itâs to Blizzardâs discretion. Just looking to generate discussion.

They shouldnât. The Alliance barely interacts with them. The only way would be if the Zandalari and Vulpera start a campaign of Genocide and drive them out of Volâdun.
I donât think that will be happening.

You will never see them.
They are an ugly, that canât wear existing head armor textures.
And why is that?
Azeroth is a fantasy world. You play an alien faun.

I think they would make a very awesome Alliance Allied race.
First, they pair of PERFECTLY with Vulpera as a long time enemy in Volâdun.
Second, if we go with a splinter group of the Faithless a good motivation for them to join the Alliance is seeing that the Vulpera have new powerful forces at their side instead of being on their own. Spite is a good motivator, and the enemy of your enemy kind of deal.
Third, if the go with a splinter group of the Faithless it adds a âForsakenâ to the Alliance in the idea of a race that could be very antagonistic to the Harmony of the Alliance. I know Night Elves are being set up that way with Tyrande right now, but I think that race could create some interesting conflicts of opinion in the Alliance lore wise. Alliance have been too perfectly unified for a long time, it would be cool if Tyrande and some Night Elves were not the only ones shaking things up. I know some people say Greymane is in the same boat but I disagree, Greymane and the Worgen are far too loyal to Anduin even if they are vocally objective to really do anything too crazy. It would be a viable plot hook for possible future stories.
Fourth, they use the Worgen Skeleton so they fit in line with the idea of each Allied race matching a prime race skeleton.
Fifth, they are so unique! Seriously, they have a very unique anatomy and body structure to them that makes for an interesting and unlikely race for the Alliance.
I honestly just think they are really freaking cool. Its just my opinion but a Snake species of Allied race on the Alliance of all sides would be really interesting to see. They have that cool voice effect that sounds like a rattling/hissing when they speak, their animations are really fluid and fun to watch (Seriously, the way they weave their head and tail when they move, mimicking how snakes move is actually really cool to see) , and I think it opens up an opportunity for such a cool race not to be a one off. I would love to see some more named characters for Sethrak continuing forward and in future adventures.
I 100% support Sethrak for the Alliance.
This and i too strongly support Sethrak for the Alliance. They would make an excellent addition and add some much needed flavor as would the Jinyu.
Along with fixing Diaper Gnomes so they can have 1-4 prosthetic limbs and are not forced to have all 4.

So not even as a Horde AR?
The major faction of Sethrak are the enemy of the Zandalari and Vulpera. The 15 or so at the temple with the flight path arenât really an Allied Race. Though, I think they have another camp so probably 100 that are aligned with the Zandalari and Vulpera.
The Alliance needs more âedgyâ races like Sethrak. The Horde is already edgy enough and can have those little goblins from Pandaria.

Yeah but Draenei have a human like face, you look at a Draenei female face and you see sexinessâŚ
When i look at a worgen all I see is a dog. When i look at a vulpera all I see is a fox, and all I see from Sethrakâs are snakes.
Just make them the Pandaren equivalent of allied races.
Neutral with a choice for either Alliance or Horde.

I was not aware that attractiveness was a stipulation of whether a race is made playable or not.
I play a Worgen because I like their lore. I like Werewolves. And I like their diversity from the staple of your typical humanoid races.
I like Sethrak for the same reason. I love their design and snakes are not only my favourite animal but hold a deep importance to me.
Sethrak are unique and would add some more good old Dungeons and Dragons fantasy to our selection of playable races.

I really donât mind the Mechagnomes. Not my cup of tea but where they were added makes complete sense.
And with the addition of them, the whole helm issue with Sethrak should no longer even be counter argument.

I donât mind them either. But as they are it is a bit creepy looking as a floating head. That is why i want the choice of 1-4 prosthetic limbs an not be forced into all 4 being prosthetic.
