High Elf Allied Race Megathread (Continuation)

@Dekkar-sisters-of-elune

for me the game is so cool because we get away from all of the irl stuff though. irl i am more of a pally than a warlock. lawful good. but it’s fun to me to play this character and walk a different line than i would otherwise.

To be fair, the real world isn’t typically kind to warlocks.

[Avarie-farstriders]

Well, I am a relatively nice person, most of the time, i think (hope).

[Meccah-moon-guard (Meccah)]

my family is religious and are convinced i’m damning myself by consorting with demons in game. rofl

[Meccah-moon-guard (Meccah)]

i like you a lot. you’re one of the helfers that i’d add to btag if they wanted to friend me. i consider you as someone who i’m developing a friendship with.

[Avarie-farstriders]

I used to post my art on facebook and my aunt once told me dad that my art is pretty but I should stop drawing demons.

I had been posting drawings of night elves…I can imagine how they might react to being called demons.

[Spârklê-stormrage]

Just keep an eye out for large stacks of wood and casks of oil at your family reunions and you should be ok.

And here’s Murgatroyd’s baby DK. Haven’t touch it in ages, like since the end of Legion.

[Avarie-farstriders]

Anyway, we are wildly off topic.

How about them high elves, yo?

[Elyssaria-kargath]

She Turned me into a newt…

A newt?

I got better…

Witch!

@Avarie-farstriders

Well, since you asked so nicely…

[Elyssaria-kargath]

Dragon Isles and the Coming possible intesection of Vareesa, Alleria and Sylvie.

[Avarie-farstriders]

I can’t wait to see more about the dragon isles, and to see what’s in store for the windrunner sisters.

[Prétre-sargeras]

What about thier kin, the half-baked elves?

[Tyrandia-kargath (Tyrandia)]

This is Elyssaria and i find the LFD and their incessant screeching in combat… well unsavory, used to be human but the animations suck. Ive taken a big liking to my NE warr. One of the Personal reasons I would like HE is that its a high chance of being paladin.

Your wish is my command and all that…

“Priest Ennas: You fool! The prince’s minions were the very Forsaken we have now allied ourselves with, and now he has betrayed us!”

Yet the Blood Elves largely do not agree with these points, evidenced by the fact that they berate them with insults and question their logic during every part of their speech. The crowd’s lines are meant to reflect the opinion of the people, and emphasis why they despise the humans.

If anything this proves my point even further, as they’re blaming the forsaken for the choices Arthas made, despite the fact that they had no free will. As NPCs they have no awareness of these facts, and are speaking from a narrow point of view. All this does is show a duality in opinion where one side heavily favored over the other.

I understand the point that the characters unlike players can’t understand the circumstances, but you are ignoring 90% of the context of the lore and blaming Arthas entire race because of his actions. You are basically saying that Arthas invaded Quel’thalas in behalf of the Alliance, let’s ignore the fact that Arthas invaded Que’thalas because the Sunwell was a font of power strong enough to resurect Kel’thuzad as a Lich so he could in the future summon Archimonde and fulfill the plans of the Legion to use the Scourge to weaken Azeroth defenses. But lets ignore all of that and blame all the Humans and the Alliance because Arthas was from the same race.

None of the Blood elves knew why Arthas was attacking, all they saw was the prince of the humans invading their lands and destroying their Sunwell. It’s natural that they would blame the humans for this, as they’re not fully aware of the context or arthas’ motives.

It’s you who have all the information and lore in front of you to understand the background of the events and you still blame the Humans and the Alliance for what Arthas did in behalf of the Lich King when the Blood Elves themselves didn’t, and their revenge was on Arthas and his Scourge.

I’m not speaking from my perspective, I’m speaking from the perspectives of the Blood elves, and why they made the decisions they had with the limited information available to them.

If Ner’zhul chosen Kael’thas to be his champion instead of Arthas and all the Warcraft III plot happened with Kael’thas instead, would you blame all the Blood Elves for the actions of Kael’thas? Problably not, you’re just biased against the Alliance and let bias override logic and lore cohesiveness.

You mean like when Garithos blamed all the elves for the destruction of his home? Are you trying to suggest that humans aren’t just as quick to irrationally blame others and try to kill them? And yes if Kael’thas led an assualt on the human capital and all the humans saw him, they would very likely blame the elves for the destruction of their home.

[Meccah-moon-guard (Meccah)]

dwarf master race!

[Tyrandia-kargath (Tyrandia)]

Wish they had more showing… another race burried by SW.

[Alfgerdhr-moon-guard]

So was flying at cap but here we are.
