First, I’d like to preface that void elves should get green eyes. We’re literally blood elves.
Blood elves could keep their gold/yellow eyes as their own aesthetic and void elves our purple eyes. It’s a kind’a cool yin/yang thing going on.
That said, I’d love to see a red option for both races. I like to match everything I can with regards to customizations. My mount macro has all red/gold mounts. My pets all red/gold. And now my hair is golden with red weapons and gear. Only my eyes don’t match. I need them red eyes to fully embrace my inner darkness.
But thank you for the blue eyes, as that helps us pretend we’re uncorrupted high elves. Both void/blood are corrupted after all.
I’ll be using blue until if/when red is an option.
A single post in a 500 post thread would get no visibility. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with single point requests instead if all encompassing miasmas.
If we all get red eyes, they should be different for different races. Belves because they have literally sucked blood magic, have dark rangers and san’layn and those have been Horde allied.
Red for Velves should be like Azshara.
Green would probably not be possible lorewise since fel and void don’t mix, but then again they allow people to be shadow priests and warlocks. So I think they could figure it in as a non-canon option.
Just make options for Thalassians slightly different depending on the group we are in. There is too much of the same thing going around and it’s gonna get boring.
She’s the queen of all void. But yeah sure. But make eyes slightly different from elf to elf so we don’t have all the same looks. It’s dull. And we have had so many changes from each other. Makes no real sense for us to all look completely alike.
This is actually false, Void and Fel are allowed to mix.
The only example that supports it is the raid boss Xhul’horac from HFC during WoD. He was a Void entity that was infused with Fel, and after absorbing too much began violent erupting. This isn’t speculation either, as it is specifically described in his journal entry that he is being filled with “overwhelming fel energy”. Anything, however, filled with an overwhelming amount of any cosmic force would result in violent eruptions. Thus, it has nothing to do with specifically the combination of Fel and Void occuring. The logical conclusion to this is that the combination of the two is completely fine, but once there becomes too much then there are problems.
These next two examples seem to get overlooked.
First we have Shadow-Lord Iskar, from the same raid. He was an Arakkoa cursed by the Void energies of Sethe. All cursed Arakkoa are, in a way, similar to Void Elves. Iskar eventually struck a deal with Gul’dan to be infused with Fel to return to his original form and granted the ability to fly once again. This is another example of Void and Fel being combined, and no where in his encounter does it imply he is experiencing and negative side effects. There are even constructs and abilities used during the fight that imply magic that is combining Fel and Void into singular attacks (Shadowfel).
Last, we move to the Felhounds of Sargeras. Both were demons (fel creatures) and one is described as having been infused with void energy. This is one of the clearest examples of fel and void mixing, and resulting in zero problematic outcomes. It’s basically Xhul’horac but in reverse.
