WoW likes to take popular concepts and implement then into the game. Like for instance how Kul Titans was basically three zones of the Witcher, Call of C’thulu, and Pirates of the Caribbean slapped together. Sometimes it works, Drustvar is one of my favorite zones. Sometimes… We get Uldums.
I could see a large king of the dragons rising from the dead and only one chosen champion can kill him with special powers being a plot they could do. So maybe. I’d be disappointed but maybe.
Drustvar is a bit more than Witcher. Considering there are Witcher referenced in Ardenweald as well.
There is even references to the original and remake (NOT THE BEES!!!) of the Wickerman films in Drustvar.
It is clear that the main influence of Drustvar is the concept of “witches” and witch hunts from real life history. In particular with the trial by ordeal that Lucile is forced to go through to prove her innocence and all that. Some of Drustvar does share influence with Gilneas, which makes sense as Kul Tiras was once a Gilnean colony.
If only WoW had ducks, then we could’ve got Monty Python reference during Lucile’s witch trial.
Ducks exist on some other planet. Your character can’t believe it, though.
<Action, adventure, thrills, chills… This book has it all! Penned by a mortal soul who led an amazing life, this book is a page-turner. But is it true? Could one person fight conspiracies, ancient evils, vast enemy armies, demons and even gods in a single lifetime? On further reflection, it could be true, but what is a “duck” this book speaks of? That part sounds fake. Still… it was a good story. Archivist Dreyden would probably be pleased to have his book back.>
Oh certainly. I was being a bit general there but I do still think it fits with that borrowed idea. Perhaps it’s Drustvar’s range of using more than just one reference source that gives it so much appeal.
That and American folk horror stories has this sort of morbid allure for mainstream audiences.
The Journal depicting us as a Villain mercilessly attacking it is humorous!
That said your story could easily be Zovaal’s tale as he does have a Heart of Azeroth the means he took to obtain it could consist of a grand tale of it’s own!
if they are doing a Dragon Isles expansion then maybe they should give it a feeling of exploration. like mists. have the island feel like an ancient land inhabited by new or recent foes.
