I was just discussing the Argus Krokul, they’re a bit of an area of interest of mine because they were so clearly written as a Horde faction to counter the Alliance Lightforged faction at some point in development.
Broken I feel are an interesting race to think about because while they would appear at first glance to be arguably Alliance already, one thing that stands out is that their main Alliance contact is stated repeatedly to essentially treat them with disgust.
The Argus Krokul are that concept taken to its logical extreme. Broken Eredar (they aren’t Draenei) who not only consider the Draenei traitors and cowards, seem to actively want Velen’s death and evidently revere an orc as something of a Hercules figure. I would kill for that story to be better explored.
As opposed to what? The always necessary and never in poor taste pro HE comments?
There’s nothing wrong with Aeds post it is both constructive for BEs and also informative if Blizzard were to look in on the thread to know the feedback on more “HE” things for VEs and on Alliance has push back and BE fans need to be considered too.
The tone is to the point but so what, unless we take the time to point out the very attributes you feel the comment embodies in every (and normally more demanding aka as you said brattish) pro HE requesting commenter.
I mean they haven’t happened, very few fandoms have been appeased to the extent the HE community has seen attention from Blizzard, so like you’d just be fanning the dislike of the already existing HE request which is controversial enough don’t you think?
Inb4 another story around the camp-fire about how only priests and paladins tap into the Holy portion of the Sunwell and everyone else has to run their Sunwell mainline through a magical water purifier, defeating the express purpose of it being half Holy.
The Sin’dorei have always had a strong connection to the light. Even back when they were the Quel’dorei.
Before the Scourge attack, this manifested itself as an order of priests dedicated to light worship. What they didn’t have was any real paladin force of any kind.
After the fall of Quel’thalas, the elves became more bitter and militant. They took the light for themselves. No longer worshipping. This resulted in the formation of the first elf paladins. The Blood Knights.
After the sacrifice of the Naaru, and the reignition of the Sunwell as a font of both holy and arcane energy. The Blood Elves have begun to go back to their original customs of light worship.
No one really disagrees, there’s just one gentleman who has some very big headcanons he likes to present like Napoléon at the Paris Uprising whenever the subject of blood elves and the Light comes up.
That said, I am really only here for the discussion. For me, it’s less about proving a point and more about just having people to talk about this stuff with.
