looks like a cool roster, (rip sethrek, i still have hopes for you)

it just annoys me that it would be an overabundance of the “sun elf” model (helf, belf, velf, slelf)

That would be nice but ARs show up late in an expansion. Like, the last year.

They said no more allied races for shadowlands so that means just a normal race unlock and I will say hell yea to that

I disagree with this list for a variety of reasons.

San’layn can be customization

That’d be a crappy way to do it.

There’s a variety of subraces that are being added via customization.
It’s a bummer they’re not all getting their own class rosters and racial abilities/mounts/armor etc.

Bit of a bummer.

I would remove Paladin from their options.

And maybe the hero classes as well?

But i respect them from a thematic stance.

I cannot remember her name but a Belf DK made some really good fan work theoretical customization for them.

It was all amazing goth inspired looks.

I’d be very disappointed if San’layn didn’t have death knights. It’s pretty fitting, especially blood spec.

We’ve got a pretty long San’layn thread here on the forums that’s full of great ideas, even some great art, which might be what you’re referring to. Some neat customization options and such.

Oh cool can you link it ??

Maybe. I can’t judge until I understand the san’layn story.

However… the sethrak on there has to be by someone who never played horde. I think I recall the zandalari occupy the sethrak temple later in questing.

There is a San’layn megathread.

Edit to actually add the thread in (which would’ve been much more helpful!) because I forgot!

Got a link to them saying no allied races for shadowlands?

tickles the flower crown girl

I can never tell if sarcasm or sweet…

If course, I was less than helpful, because I forgot to actually link the thread so people could see it. LOL :woman_facepalming:t4:

What if instead of an allied race, it’s a belf customization like night warrior?

You drink some sanlayn blood or whatever those vampires do and you can become one.

No more reuse of the blood elf model, pls. San’Layn would be horrible as an allied race because blizzard would just retexture blood elves and there you go. Boring. Revamp or redesign San’Layn and give them a different set of animations and they’d be great.

I appreciate you linking this! Yeah I like keeping things consolidated to one thread.

Plus, yeah, I put in a loooot of work into that thread, if I’m going to be honest.

Also this fan art I commissioned from Galdersart seems so much more relevant now that Kael is coming back :stuck_out_tongue: ('twas PRIOR to finding out)

That’d be pretty cool if we got fangs as well, and bat-like ears. Hopefully claws too. I’d have to live with that, it’d give justification to allow them to be playable. I just would hope they’d give them a bit more lore, you know? Like the origin of the blood curse, what was meant by “The neophytes were being turned into Blood Princes like Dreven” (Alliance War Campaign), turning process, what they’ve been up to since Wrath. That might be asking much from a lore standpoint, but hey it’s just what I personally would love to see myself.
