High Elf Allied Race Megathread (Continuation)

Well, if you expanded that to every race in both factions it could prove to be hilarious. Imagine Budd running for King of Stormwind? :wink:

You’re sailing alright, Budd
all the way to the throne!

Omg yes. Unfortunately it seems as if Stormwind will always have a monarchy. I havent been following too closely, but arent they writing Taelia and Anduin as a thing?

I hope not, she and Flynn all the way!

Gods no! Wrathion is coming back into the game and I’m shipping he and Anduin hard.

Let’s say Vareesa and Auric really press the issue of trying to get the Blood elves back into the alliance behind Lor’themar’s back. This abuse of trust backfires on them big time. Lor’themar removes auric and the rest of the High elves from the sunwell, and bans them from making the pilgrimage.

Tensions rise between the Sc and Sunreavers in dalaran again. so the Sc leaves dalaran, because the kirintor won’t have any unrest, to build a place of their own.

Vareesa now pledges 100% commitment to the alliance now that they are in a corner and the other high elves join them. (This works like the Dark Irons- we were allies and working with them but had not gained access to them as playable)

That’s actually a pretty perfect scenario!

I vote Highvale as their new location, a close friends and allies the Wildhammer dwarves are near by.

Outside of dalaran and Allerian stronghold it has the highest concentration of high elves.

I second this vote!

Highvale being the launch point would do multiple things. Bring new lore to the Hinterlands. Offer new pvp potential that high up on EK. And it would show High Elves settling down to really make themselves their own race away from the Blood Elves. Hell, if this is what happens theyre pretty much turning into what we see in other games as Wood Elves. People dont think they should use the High Elf or Quel’dorei name. Well it could potentially change to something new.

Thank you :slight_smile:

Not really sure how it ties into the current story, maybe it just the recruitment scenario in aftermath of Vareesa and the Sc helping out in the fight against Sylvanas?

This is where Vareesa is going to some of the more sympathetic BE leaders whom probably dispise the horde but they are ratted out to Lor’themar.

Im sympthetic towards Sylvanas. I still hope she can be redeemed one day. Id like to see her and Vareesa lead the High Elves to Highvale. She doesnt have to stick around, but I like the idea of the sisters feeling like family again.

So over the years, Blizzard hasn’t been consistent with their depiction of Arcane-based magic. We saw it originally as a whitish-blue, then as blue in “pure” form and pink or purple in “corrupt” form, and today all three of those colors are present whenever the Arcane is.

The take which presents the least amount of issues, relative to existing lore, is for Arcane-based magic to be decidedly blue-colored; with the other coloration(s) being explained as less purely Arcane-based. If this were to be the case, and pink-and-purple magic were to be defined as being “corrupted” somehow, we might see High Elves looking like this:

They are the same thing, just a different name.
Let alone, why are void elves so unsatisfactory when they are literally blood elves who never did anything to contribute to the Horde? They spent their entire time just trying to save their kingdom, got exiled, then went alliance.

The high elves in the alliance didn’t do anything until WotLK, and in that aspect, their only purpose was to serve as antagonists to the blood elves, which wasn’t anything to contribute for the alliance.
So, if we consider lore, void elves do fill in that niche, because the most they did was leave the alliance under orders of King Anasterian.

Different race per lore.

no, that is still headcanon, because the lore does not allow for such a thing. You are playing a game of semantics when the intent of both is to utter a statement which is unsupported.


I could see that, I’m not sure how Bob The Buff Elf is going to feel about pink arrows (yes, yes I know - let’s not pin people down that way
) though. :wink:

Pink is the color of royalty. Give me glowing pink eyes.

Purple is the color royalty from what i know. Maybe pink is too? I know they used to dress boys in pink and girls on blue until about the 1910s.

That one’s troubling for me. On the one hand yes, she certainly had her share of terrible things happen to her, but after this


All I really want for her is this
