Kul’tiran humans are a thing because of the Drust ancestry, which were Vrykul’s that left Northrend and settled on Kul Tiras.
Where does it explain that kul tiran body’s/characteristics ancestors ventured the hallowfall with arathi…?

Kul Tiras is in Baradin Bay very close to Arathi Highlands. Not where it is on the WoW map. So I guess the idea is a lot of people from Kul Tiras migrated to Arathor via Kul Tiras, which is a shipping hub, which is why they are so diverse.
Kul tirans have no relation to the drust.
They just use a big model.
Theyre regular humans

I’m confused, I thought Kul’Tirans shared a ancestry with the Gilneans. Why can’t the Gilnean have trade route with the Kul’Tiran?
Arathor invaded Kul’Tiras and murdered the Drust
Different Arathi. The ones in TWW are a splinter group that sailed to the other side of the world a couple thousand years ago. They mixed with the elves that went with them so Blizz uses a whole bunch of different old human and elf models for them. The Kul’tiran models used are all shrunk down to normal human height or even shorter.

Some vrykul settlements were scattered prior to the Great Sundering. After the Sundering, various vrykul tribes set out for the seas, and one such population of seafaring vrykul settled on Kul Tiras.
All vrykul suffered from the curse of flesh, which made their offspring turn into regular humans. The thornspeakers came from the Drust
Know your lore next time before make an assumption like that.
Hmmm I didn’t know it was that long ago. Where did it say that?
Not all of their children otherwise the Vrykul in Northrend and Suramar wouldn’t exist
Le sigh… whatever dude.
Fine. Yes, drust are the ancestral ucles of humans.
But kul tirans are not part of that branch.
Just the druids
Those aren’t Kul Tirans.
You can tell by the height.
Kul Tirans are literally taller than the world record for tallest NBA player, being 7’9’’ tall. The tallest NBA player ever was 7’7’'.
The chonky Arathi about the same height as regular humans.
They mentiond it in an interview a while ago
But if you play through the story they pretty much spell it out. I don’t think tgey ever give an exact time frame but it’s implied that it was shortly after the Troll Wars when the original Arathi Empire existed before it broke up into the five kingdoms.

Yeah I looked up the old Empire and it looks like it would have had to be at least 1200 years ago anyway.
It looks like Kul Tiras already existed when the old Arathi Empire was a thing though so perhaps the Kul Tirans of that time were phenotypically similar to the present ones anyway.
You can see on the image on the right.
