Their side profile has that hunch similar to male nelfs.
Okay Iāve looked at them in the model viewer and theyāre using NE male animations and have the male NE sway. These are the male NE skeletons 100%.

The customization options are so limited, itās either not complete yet or just NPCs. But they look interesting. Looks like the in between of Trolls and Elves.
They lookā¦interesting. Iām honestly not sure how I feel about them yet.
Huh? Oh well, the world demanded a well proportioned night elf and here it is.
Just because they got pointy ears doesnāt mean theyāre actually elves. Half the humanoid races in this game have pointy ears. We donāt really know what they are at present.
I dunno about well proportioned. Those hands are insaneo mode.
They do have wider hips though, which is definitely a problem for the male NE models imo.

That is the curse of the nelf model. Even nightborne suffer.

Woah woah, I donāt think Blizz will be adding those into the game.
Kyrian and Venthyr werenāt set up like player models were. Kyrian wouldnāt be too hard to convert (Theyāre based on Vrykul and male Vrykul are set up that way), but Venthyr were completely off
These however are basically set up like Vulpera were at launch

This is giving me Kyrian/Venthyr/Sylvari/Maldraxxi vibes all over againā¦
If they get more options by the time theyāre playable, sure, Iāll take a look. Playing a āmissing linkā elf might actually be entertaining.
Iām down for it. Theyāve always done the allied races in pairs. And if alliance is gonna have another dwarf reskin, then horde can get another troll/elf reskin.
100% theyre going to be faction neutral
Oh great more elvesā¦ā¦ yaaawwwn

I like the female model EXCEPT for the excessively narrow and thrown back shoulders.
They should give them the female night elf shoulders; I think that would look much better.

Iām guessing these will be the guardians of the roots of Elunāahir.
The deepest zone was shown to have what looked to be roots with tents scattered about. Images never showed any residents. Iām guessing these will be who live there.
Might play into whatever zone comes after the Nerubian one later on in the expansion.
Seems fitting.
I really hope they become playable. We know nothing about them yet but they seem mysterious and fresh and cool!

Looks like just another elf to go with just another dwarf, so I think this is a likely allied race.
Not my thing, but I could see these being popular and something that many players enjoy. More popular than the Earthen, for sure.
I can definitely say I have Harronir brain rot, honestly hope that they are indeed an allied race, and I especially find it neat that the legend of ElunāAhir seems extremely likely that its part of their lore. : )
Iād put it at very likely for a future patch considering theyāre able to wear gear and donāt have stock outfits glued on. More customization will probably come later on as they come closer to being playable.
Also theyāre high resolution like a player race would be.
