Char Customization: What Do We Want?

Also, why are the High Elf NPC eyes now purple?
I’d rather those purple eyes for my Void Elf than the ones we do have.

I just…

I just want to be tall as a male forsaken. :frowning: Can I please stop hunching? I would love to be able to pick between having a hunchy Forsaken or a straight-backed Forsaken, that would be great! Just like how orc males can pick it now.

Seconding the desire for Blood Elves to have the void elf hairstyles (and vice versa). It would be nice if void elves could also have the non-tentacle versions of those hairstyles too.

Additionally, in no particular order:

  • More skintones for lightforged draenei. Now that regular draenei get the same horns as lightforged, there is basically no reason to play them unless you really like white skin that all looks…the same…some gold tones would be nice!
  • More skintones and diversity of face shape for Nightborne. (You know, along with the longstanding request to please let Nightborne look like the NPC models.)
  • U p r i g h t u n d e a d
  • Scars for blood elves, tattoos for blood elves, please just something other than a bracelet and a necklace. Hair ornaments would be super neat, like night elves got, but instead like hair jewelry. Mana gems. I don’t know. Something other than a bracelet.
  • Red eyes and purple eyes for elves.
  • More than four faces for female tauren.
  • Diverse face shapes across the board for every race.

Dreadlocks and cornrows for blood elves. And more styles of cornrows too.

I’d like the option for my Void form to look like Alleria’s:

I’d also like everything in this image added to Void Elves:

Thank you for compiling all of this.

For human would you also add
“Darker skin for Asian Faces” please?

Honestly, I’d like the void form skin to be permanent. I’d legit use it as a base skin tone.

Also, body options. Please.
Most of the male races in this game are beyond ugly because they look like they’re made out of baked hams. Giving us the option to play more natural bodied men? Please. Not all of us are into steroid chugging muscle dudes.

I’d LOVE to play male draenei, but they look like refrigerators. I want to look more like Velen, and artwork of lithe male draenei looks so much more beautiful.

Same thing with Male Night Elves. We can sort of get a few options going for them, but a lot of the options are old trucker druids. They can be just as gorgeous as the Thalassian elves, but we just don’t have those options in game.

Male human is … getting better, but the arms look like gorilla arms. Forsaken have more realistic proportions, and they’re dead.

I get the option to be a cute chonker as a Kul’tiran, but I want to be thin too.

I’m sure I’m in a minority here. But Darker Skin tones for Goblins is something I’d like.

As someone who would also like some darker skin tones in general, I support you <3

This is a compilation of all requests I know of for Blood Elves from the megathreads.

PS: Give Worgen tails!


Blood Elves have several subgroups which we would like to see more customization for.

Farstrider Fantasy:
Farstriders are the Blood Elf ranger faction. They have nature themes and are seen in Warcraft 2 and 3. They’re an important part of the Thalassian military.

Customization features which appeal to the Farstrider Fantasy are:

  • Tattoos like the one seen in Warcraft 2.
  • Feathers in hair for nature themes.
  • Arguably braids both long and short to keep hair from being caught in bow strings.

Magister Fantasy:
Magisters are the Blood Elf caster fantasy. Powerful mages of Quel’thalas and an important part of the Thalassian nation.

  • Runic tatoos.
  • Longer hairstyles for ladies.
  • Eyes that match spell color effects for various casters such as orange for fire.
  • Hair crystals.

Blood Knight Fantasy:
Blood Knights are the Blood Elf Paladin faction. Once gritty, they’ve been redeemed by the Light.

  • Scars because close combat injuries happen.
  • Torn or damaged ears.
  • Light colored tatoos to go with the golden eyes.

Other additions:

Class:

  • Druids — Sin’dorei magisters have manipulated nature for ages. If Kultirans can be Druids, why not? They can be motivated by a desire to heal the Dead Scar and can have a redemption arc like Blood Knights did.
  • Shaman — Some people are requesting this. The healing to the Dead Scar narrative can be used here too technically.

Hair:

  • Strawberry Blonde hair color.
  • Pure white hair color.
  • Two-tone hair colors.
  • Luminescent two-tone light hair. (Similar to DI fire hair but light.)
  • Possibly unrealistic anime hair colors.
  • Since Void Elves are getting our skin colors can we get their hairstyles?
  • Afro-ethnic hairstyles like afros and dreadlocks to go with our dark skin colors.
  • More hairstyles for all races would be great tbh.

Facial Hair:

  • Wizard Beards.
  • More options in general, see Night Elven implimentation.

Skin:

  • Freckles
  • Shiny/Metallic skin tones to reflect the magical nature of Blood Elves.

Ears:

  • Ear armor.

Light Forged themes:

  • Halos
  • Auras
  • Glowing/Light tattoos
  • Gold tattoos
  • Light runes
  • Light miasma

Dark Ranger Theme:
Dark Rangers are undead Rangers but use the Blood Elf rig. The skins for them and eyes for them already exists and it’s just a matter of turning them on. They could also add a Blood Elf rig to Forsaken as a toggle or choice but Forsaken players might not like that.

  • Unlock undead skin for all classes.
  • Unlock red eyes.

The more out there themes:

Darkfallen Theme:
Darkfallen are undead Blood Elves found in Northrend. They’re vampyres and tried to join The Horde during BfA.

  • Undead Skins
  • Red eyes
  • Bat-like ears
  • Claws
  • Fangs
  • Possibly bat wings.

Felblood Elf Theme:
Felblood Elves are Blood Elves who overloaded on the fel and mutated. They have bright colorful skin, horns blackened hands, and little feathery winglets.

  • Colorful skins with darkened cracked hands.
  • Unlocking DH horns for all classes.
  • Wings/winglets, dark, light, possibly matching hair color.

Please let me know if I missed anything. I probably did.

Heck yeah, the Void options shown in the above post look /amazing/.

Male Draenei are… eegh. I’d love to have a thin option for a Male Draenei Scout type character.

Worgen fur colours I was really hoping we’d get:

  • Blonde (like the fur the Tauren had added, but with hair a bit darker than the fur instead of lighter/near-white)

  • Dark Reddish, like an Irish Setter (less orange, more red)

  • More warm fur tones in general, many of the browns are quite grayish/cold. The warm brown that was added was lovely, would be nice to have an alternate version without the black hands/feet/hair.

  • I know scars have been mentioned a lot, but for worgen: bite scars and claw scars! Someone turned our characters, after all. There’d be marks.

Oh, and bring back the NPC faces for Nightborne :frowning:

More eye shapes in general for most races would be nice…

I am still jealous of the npc nightborne having the most perfectly beautiful eyes while the playable ones all look like they just suddenly remember they forgot to turn the oven off.
