The Naga- they could have became friendly (with either faction) due to fighting alongside illidan and his followers.

Naga - Neutral

With us having essentially killed all the old gods, Azshara has 0 reason for anymore antagonism towards us that isn’t for her own “empire”.

That or a sect of Naga separate from her now that the influence of the old gods is gone/not as strong.

The covenant races. I’d love to play a sylvar.

Night Elf flavored Worgen. Kind of an in-between of the originals that lost their minds and what the Gilneans ended up with. These will be the Worgen with tails – generally a slightly wilder appearance, and would be a lot more justifiable than just slapping tails onto a race that hasn’t had them for 16 years.

The counterpart would probably need to be Forsaken-based, since Worgen and Forsaken are the 2 that never got “alternate” versions via Allied Races. Pandaren already exist on both sides so no need for that.


That aside… Sethrak would have been really interesting and I’m disappointed it didn’t happen alongside Vulpera.

Let’s see…

the non-Outcast Arakkoa were really neat. I’d totally play one of those. But I know it’d be very hard to justify since they’re on WoD Draenor and were 100% hostile to both factions.

High Elves, but they go to the Horde just to get the Alliance (even more) upset.

There’s so many suggestions on the forums with extremely detailed threads from A to Z. Take your pick.

Hero Race:

Dragonkin

-In the aftermath of Deathwing and the use of the Dragon Soul, children have started being born infused with the power of the aspects.

-The race Doesn’t have classes it is it’s own race/class combo, with a single spec chosen at creation that defines its customization options and role (Bronze for tanky melee DPS, Black for roguey melee DPS, Blue for magey caster DPS, Red for Atonement/Disc style self healing, Green for HoT/DoT combo)

-It should be relatively simple to play correctly, but very rewarding to get dead right.

-Cannot queue for LF tool instances or in any other way join groups, or engage in war mode.

-Never has to be “balanced” can just be a fun, laid back toon good for farming and soloing old content.

-One per account, no achievements directly related to what you pick, so it never needs to have FOMO that you picked the “Wrong” option, just whatever playstyle you enjoy the most.

yes, there’s drawbacks and people would complain about some aspect of it, but it would cut out alot of the “I can’t solo X on Y” -“Nah, get good, I can solo it fine on my Z” on constant repeat and with an ez-farm toon on call for casual players, it would provide a solid downward-pressure on AH prices and for hardcore players, less time-sink for getting mains ready for raid.

Tuskarr would be pretty cool.

Gorgon. Who does not want a race with snakes for hair. Honey on top they can look like elves or humans. That or avian. Avian are a winged monster with two heads, legs of eagle and clawed hands. Can not remember the Greek name for them. But the two monstruous animal heads really got to me. Especially they could shape shift in either a bird or lion.

I’d like to see both Vrykul and Arakkoa as neutral races like Pandaren so they can be on both factions.

Vrykul could have a quest to get more customisation like the Night Elves did for the Night Warrior eyes to give them the Stormforged Valarjar look.

Arakkoa should be able to be choose either the flying or flightless looks. The flying ones should actually be allowed to fly (on their own) once they unlock flying mounts. The flightless would need some bonus for balance but I can’t think what it might be.

I would replace warlock with shaman. I feel like Hozen wouldn’t dabble in witchcraft. Death Knight works because they could be raised against their will. There would definitely be Hozen shaman though.
