High Elf Allied Race Megathread (Continuation)

Community General Discussion

I do feel as though this can turn into a forum lounge sometimes.

Does it bother anyone is the high elves dont have the phoenix or heavy arcane themes?
I like the more ranger aspect of it. Otherwise i do not believe Vareesa could call herself the Ranger General of the Silver covenant.
Not to say that there are no mages in the SC either, because the High elves are well versed in the arcane.
I like the Cloth armor in the OP with the hoods, head bands and the tunic covering part of the shoulders.

I Also like the Unicorn theme as well and appreciate that Blizz made that distinction.

i did a story craft for that.
a group of farstriders, thousands of years earlier, take a fleet out to survey the islands off the coast of quel’thalas and eastern plaguelands. the dragon isles have a sort of bermuda triangle anomalie, that crashes any ships trying to approach it and they shipwreck. this same thing could happen to other races also. the dragons protect that island, perhaps because its dangerously connected to the old gods? so once boats are shipwrecked there, the occupants/survivors are not allowed to leave and reveal what they found

this would also explain why the dragons will not tell wrathion where the dragon isles are located, even though he’s asked and has been searching for them

I would love a more ranger like theme myself, and moving more away from magic and phoenix imagery is definitely also fine with me.

And yessss unicorns!

The reality is there are helfers who would settle for half-elves, or at least they were last time I paid attention to the discord’s discussion on it.

Kek, typo. Half elves.
Troll harder m8 you’re not good at it.

7202

Yes, and some that do for Void elves with High elf skins.

And what?

What is wanted overall is High elves.

This is it. :woozy_face:

I personally could love to see a bit of the Celtic theme thrown in there as well, they intended for the Night Elves to have it
 but Iam only seeing that in their Druidism
 and that has been lost into the hordes many druids.

A Celtic theme would definitely be an amazing one to explore! That could definitely end up being pretty amazing visually.

One thing that doesn’t makes sense either is that it is stated by some that the markings were druid symbols, but only the women have it? It was the men that were only Druids in the past, while the women were the Sentinels and Priestesses.

Wildhammer Dwarves are Celtic-like.

Maybe something else.

Just some kind of ‘less elvy elves’ would be cool for them.

7207

good point. what an odd lore decision

7208

The less they are like the Belfs, the more inclined I will be to play one and HAPPILY.

That is the one thing the Antis just cannot let go of: that we want Alliance High Elves for their own sake and NOT so we can discommode their oh-so-precious selves!
High Elf Rangers? Seems right.
Yes I can easily see High Elves completely doing all they can to disassociate themselves from their erring FORMER kin! Kael the Overbearing wants to rename everything and paint the town red and change change CHANGE!
Fine.
So can they.
What kind of changes? Who knows? Let the devs deal with that. I know what I’d like to see and scroll up if you wanna read it.(or go into my atchive and prowl around there)
High Elves; with a touch of Dark. Dragon Isles.
WHY did the name ‘Michael Moorcock’ come to mind?

Yes.

Kal’dorei women should get golden eyes and Kaldorei men should get silver eyes and face paintings.

Down with the gender roles!

Well, it’s part of their story, isn’t it? Now we have male priests and female druids. Let’s see if the stubborn wardens start accepting b0is.

(I might add that some wardens would love to have some fresh b0is around :woozy_face:)

The Highvale elves, High Elves that live in the Hinterlands with the Wildhammer Dwarves, could reasonably sport those celtic marks.

They do share a strong bond, per High vale. Mix of cultures?

7213

Nah my little Goblin, you are just talking trash.

Anti High elves also have disagreements.

In fact, having disagreements is cool. We are not a hivemind after all.

Try better. C ya :kissing_heart:

Maybe a way to get a path of least resistance from Anti crowd? since it does seem to be a less volatile opinion.

Hey, let’s see, Highvale elves have good relationships with them.

I would not mind if it were some kind of adding through a ‘Mag’har-like’ allied race, if you know what I mean.
