Im just responding to your words
I donât get it. They are literally High Elves. Youâre playing one RN.
Quelâthalas is currently inhabited by the Blood Elves formally known as Princ-- i mean High Elves. Same dudes.
Void Elves friend. a Squad.
And the trolling. Alright guys. Have a good day.
Weâre back to, âBlood Elves are High Elves.â
They are, all in but name. Itâs not trolling.
Look at the context then.
I just donât view having high elves as being something that will break down the faction. Barrier. I want that faction barrier sky high. High elves add a unique twist to the current war based along racial lines, thatâs my opinion.
Yes, this is known. I recommend reading the words located on your screen within the application known as âWorld of Warcraftâ to perhaps find out why your confusion just makes you look like a low-bait troll.
They call themselves blood elves due to the smacking that Arthas gave them. Theyâre still High Elves by birth.
Itâs trolling.
So now weâve got to be forced to be particular and say, âAlliance High Elvesâ so people know what weâre talking about even though âHigh Elvesâ are labeled" High Elves" and Blood Elves are labeled Blood Elves so everybody already knew the difference?
Itâs so stupid.
Your confusion over the relevance of this information can be solved by spending more time within the computer program âWorld of Warcraftâ a long-running subscription-based MMO, from developer Activision Blizzard.
You might want to give it a look.
Or look up gamepedia for wow. It has all the info there.
Thatâs not true actually.
Racially theyâre dark trolls.
The Dark Trolls became Kaldorei.
The Kaldorei Highborne who were exiled went to Lordaeron.
Those Elves didnât have the protection of the tree of life which was blessed by a dragon, so they became shorter and paler. During their lifespan.
So the Kaldorei became the âHigh Elvesâ because of magic withdrawal basically.
Theyâre also just named High Elves.
So when they perform a performative act and say, âWeâre not longer High Elves, Weâre Blood Elvesâ
Then they became Blood Elves. Because thatâs just what the race calls itself.
Quelâdorei are a group of people. Not a race.

Thereâs this blue-eyed blood elf who keeps saying that the Sinâdorei are Quelâdorei?
Well if you read a bit she/he was asking rhygax if he was confused who was living there. So i double checked with wowpedia and pulled a paraphrase from there. During the Scourge invasion of QuelâThalas, the high elves were nearly scoured from Azeroth: the king perished before Arthasâs dark powers, the Sunwell was destroyed, and the bulk of their people were slaughtered. In the wake of this devastation, the kingâs son Prince Kaelâthas Sunstrider proclaimed the surviving high elves reborn from the ashes of their shattered kingdom and people, as the blood elves.[6] this canât be any clearer.
Links dont work cus i cant post em
Yeah. The withered Kalâdorei in Quelâthalas renamed themselves from High Elves to Blood Elves.
Which makes them Blood Elves.
However, there were High Elves living in other parts of the world who refused to absorb mana and who didnât change their name⊠and so they keep being High Elves.
The Blood Elves arenât High Elves anymore because they changed their name⊠and it was just a name anyways.
The High Elves are still High Elves because theyâre still a group that calls themselves High Elves.
A Blood Elf is a Blood Elf and a High Elf is a High Elf.
Much like a Darkspear Troll isnât a Zandalari troll.
If you want to be real specific.
The correct nomenclature, is most likely, âElf.â for the race.
Why say withered? That would then apply to those other elves that refused or were in absence of the well since its destruction.
I agree Blood Elves are just a name. They are still High Elves. Theyve been referred to as High Elves for their entire existence since their divergence from the Highbourne.
A High Elf is a High Elf But a Blood Elf is also a High Elf, since ofc, its just a name.

Zandalari have about ten-thousand years of being seperated, and the Loaâs blessing. Which shows in their more reptilian aspects and nobler appearance.
The High Elves and âBlood Elvesâ only have had around 15 years to be seperated. Their only difference being is that the âHigh Elvesâ were somehow immune to being severed from the Sunwell. Because a Blizzard dev really liked their pretty elves on the Alliance.
They werenât immune, an entire lodge of them withered if i remember. Ah yes Quel lithien lodge. Became wretched in cata
Stop. Please stop.
Also, I donât want to explain WoW cosmology to you. Youâre not going to understand and itâs annoying and really upsets the other antiâs. Not trying to bother with that right now.
cringes Iâll try⊠Real fast: Magic changes elves. Time periods donât matter. Theyâre magically reactive. If you believe that Nightborne are different than NIght Elves though, you also have to accept Blood Elves and High Elves are different races because of fel magic turning Blood Elf eyes green. Youâre not going to accept that though and itâs going to make the forum annoying, so lets forget we talked about it and accept WoW cosmology is beyond you. Lets move on.
Again youâre trying to ignore the established lore of the Nightborne where it very specifically mentions how over time the Nightwell changed them. Thalryssa says âWe turned to the Nightwell, and slowly⊠it changed us.â which is essentially telling us that over those ten thousand years of exposure to the nightwell, it changed them into a different race. Different color eyes over a few years does not change their race, otherwise golden eyed blood elves are now also a different race.
Nightborne have had their entire bodies changed,their skin color changed and relationship to magic completely altered from Night elves. High elves and Blood elves remain completely the same, even Rosâeleth a high elf npc refers to blood elves as Quelâdorei which tells us not even the High elves themselves see the Blood elves as a separate race.
Stop trying to pretend that youâre lecturing me when really all youâre trying to do is substitute established lore with your fanfiction and headcanon.
Void Elves. Nightborne.
Both cases of Allied races being rejected from the faction they originally wished to join. Unlike High elves that are openly welcomed by Blood elves.
Youâre not reciting the lore. cringes
But I am reciting lore? Itâs you that keeps ignoring it in favor of your theories and headcanon. Cringe indeed.
Not all exiles stayed at the Quelâlithien lodge. Also the writers specifically donât talk specific numbers so people canât make annoying lore posts about it. There is no way for you to speak definitively on this matter. lets drop it.
The only official exiles of Quelâthalas were the Quelâlithien elves, hence why we have many High elves residing at the Sunwell among the Blood Elves. My goodness you really do have very little knowledge of lore.
Nah. Some of them were in Outland. Some of them left because they didnât want to drain magic. Some of them always lived in Dalaran. Some of them live in a lodge that trades with dwarves. Etc. Also, they made the wow pen and paper defunct, but it used to be canon, and so in that, some of them just migrated anyways. There was an elven population in all major population centers.
Metzen went over this in an interview that many of the High elves that remained loyal to the Alliance left after hearing of Quelâthlas was sacked by Arthas while the alliance sat idly by, and that even more departed after witnessing Garithosâ treatment of the blood elves. As I said the only remaining Alliance aligned high elf members are of the ones that remained after the splintering.
Dalaran High elves are neutral.
