Confirmed. 100%. Thanks to my eye color of gold being due to the use of more holy energy within the sunwell. Its been made clear that their eye color can and does change based on what they are exposed to. Say its not about eye color, but they gave you void elves. Do you really need another blood elf variant? That was the compromise.
And yes, Ghostcrawler isn’t there anymore. However, he was the top dog. The fact that after all of these years when he left and they have not given us anything else like that speaks volumes.
Here is the reasons why they wont be an allied race from my research, backed by lore:
-
They left the alliance, who now doesn’t really much like them. Think DKs who first start out and those responses.
-
There are so few of them, as stated multiple times in multiple books, that they could realistically be classified as extinct. This is made worse by the fact that some have since become void elfs.
-
They are so scattered and have zero unity outside of one small group in dalaran that they wouldn’t even have a leader. They very much look out for themselves.
-
Thanks to having no unity and no leaders, there is no faction to bring into the fold even. The entirety of the Silver Covenint fits within Dalaran. That is the largest known grouping of their kind, and their ranks only grow due to other races joining.
So, one thing you would need to over come: How do you bring in a race who is scattered, not unified in anyway, and willingly left the alliance already due to not wanting to be with them to begin with?
