I agree
I would say that paladins call upon this when needed for combat.
But light forged have it in them always

My original quote is someone talking about people exploding.
And the cosmology chart doesn’t say anything about Void Elves casting the light. It talks about the energies that create the twisting nether. With the cosmology chart being contested by Steve Danuser.
Anyways, if you drink too much water you die. That doesn’t mean you die from drinking water.
The best source for Void Elves not being able to cast the light is Alleria, who isn’t a void elf, she ate a dark naaru, having pain being around Turalyon in her void form.
But we see undead being in pain from casting the light using the light all the time. She’s fine in her non-void form. My Void Elves aren’t doing entropic embrace all the time. Why would channeling the light hurt them?
Why would Draenei Paladins become lightforged if Paladins were already infused with the light?
There are Undead Paladins out in Icecrown.

Not according to the lore.
Yeah thats not being infused with the light.
Yeah she was. >.> an endorsement from a dude who doesn’t know the lore isn’t helping her case.

Irrelevant to the conversation I was having with you. They’re still opposing forces.
- I have no idea what you’re talking about with Velfs casting Light.
- The creation story is literally Light and Void exploding, irrelevant to what it creates.
- Nothing is contested. The Broker’s Cosmic chart is from their point of view and doesn’t contest whatsoever that Light and Void are polar opposites.
That was a pretty horrible comparison. 
Yes. She absolutely is a Void Elf. She’s literally infused with the Void, through and through and is considered the very first Void Elf. So… you’re wrong.
Irrelevant, because Death is the opposite of Life, not Light.
Once again… learn your lore.
If you cannot comprehend the differences here, then you really need to stop being condescending, when you’re the one trying to push headcanon.

Maybe that would be because they are always struggling with the void. They did underwent a ritual and became void beings…
It was explained during Argus, just because they are lightforged, does not mean they all have masters on using the light, and have other preferences on how to fight.
Paladins does not channel the light, they weild it from within. So yes they are infused.
You are free to be wrong despite being explained on why you are wrong.
No she’s not.
Says the guy quoting lore, a well known gnome that continuously gotten lore wrong and caused nothing but drama to the communities he spoke in.
A turned scarlet zealot who is constantly burning in agony, who believes it is to atone for the sins of his existence sounds way cool but that’s just me

Quoting a gnome citing novels. You can’t wave away novel references.
As for the rest of your reply, you’re basically ignoring already established lore references previously discussed. So just read above until you get it I guess and we can talk then.

I disagree OP. Undead paladins make sense because many people who died and were raised were paladins before death. If undead priests exist then so should undead paladins. Any class humans can be undead should be too.

There is no reason for Class/Race combo to not happen .
That is fundamentally the origin of paladins based in WoW lore.
I would have said mecha gnome druids… but SL lore seems to strongly imply all our gods including Elune are robots, so bring on the voltron cats
And? There are Eredar Mages. There afre discipline priests.
You’re extrapolating cosmic forces, massive amounts of them to Void Elves. We’ve seen twilight vindicators before.
I’m not saying it might not hurt. During entrolic embrace it might hurt a lot. But that definitely doesn’t mean it isn’t possible.
Alleria isn’t a void elf. She doesn’t consider herself a void elf and didn’t get her star girl form the same way the void elves were changed.
I haven’t seen any Alleria looking Void Elves in game either.
blizz could make some serious bank opening restrictions. either token sales or ppl paying directly, race changing would be very popular.
personally all my characters would be goblins.

… what are you even talking about? 
I’m literally telling you that Light is the opposite of Void. There’s no "massive amounts of anything.
… what do Twilight Cultists have to do with Light and Void being opposites?
Do you even hear yourself? Nothing you’ve said makes any sense whatsoever.
Yes. She literally is.

They are going to make so much money with this. I’m adverse to spending money on stuff like this and I have at least 2 alts I will change if they open it up to them.

Uh Blood elves toyed with fel energy and were still priests and paladins. If you have Orc and Undead and even void Elf priests that use the light, why can’t a void Elf, orc and Undead use the light as a paladin?

Players quibble about lore this and lore that, and no, that can never happen! Yes it can and should! No, impossible!
But in the end, gameplay decisions are the only consideration. Devs make the changes and fashion the lore around them.

On Alleria: No. Steve Danuser fielded that question. Just because she is the racial leader of a group doesn’t make her that group. She’s a High aelf who ate a dark naaru. She’s not a Blood Elf changed by a Void Prince.
As for your other argument, acting incredulous isn’t helping your case.
There is no in lore examples of Void Elves exploding from interacting with the light. How the Universe is said to have come to being is different. Thats a macro level thing. This is a micro level thing.
Too much oxygen is deadly. Too much water is deadly.
Lets take your inference further. So Void and Light exploded and created the universe right?
Then if we’re just assuming that applies to interactions with Void Elves and light magic that doesn’t mean they explode. It means they turn into planes or existances.
Thats the logical conclusion of your argument.
Because there is no lore about it and you’re making stuff up.
Here is what we know:
Alleria, in void form. Feels pain interacting with Turalyon.
She has a dark naaru in her.
Thats all we know. We don’t know if void elves somehow have more void in them than Alleria (who has a dark naaru in her. Seems unlikely.)
We don’t know if the light would only hurt them in entropic embrace. Etc. Etc.
We don’t know. It hasn’t been written.
You can make inferences. But so far your inference isn’t that Void Elves interscting with light magic make alternate planes of existances so I’m not sure what that cosmology sentence has to do with the conversation.
