I actually forgot Kael’s association with Phoenixes (I got Ashes on the second run so never put much thought into it), so this is very fitting for him.
All hail Blood King Kael’thas Sunstrider, Twice-Risen Phoenix of Silvermoon!
(official art btw)
And oh lawd Nathanos is there, I imagine this immediately happening when he see him
Seeing those images just makes me feel more hyped about the race or at the very least loving the idea behind it. From the first moment I saw that Sanlyn Custom options video I fell in love with the idea. Now imagine that image of Sylvanas with blood red tipped glowing hair. Hey. That’s some good allied race material if I ever saw some.
I think banshees could be there own thing. San’layn seem to be an entirely new identity. From all the ideas on this thread. Both undead races would be appreciated.
Love the idea sharing You know at first I was somewhat skeptical about the idea of a Blood King Kael’thas. But yeah him being a figurative “phoenix” really makes sense to me. I had tons of fun writing that scenario, and I forgot there was art of him being a vampyr as well! Hah. Granted my descripton of the King is somewhat different.
Edit: ROFL if this ever becomes a thing, yes he definitely has to have a quote like that.
I can entirely imagine this. Plus if he has wings he can say, “'I wear these better than that Demon Hunter.” I think it would be quite funny ^^
As for wretched San’layn, probably if they don’t feed. In the very least i could see them lose their minds and beserk if not given the ability to feed which no doubt would be dangerous.
Welcome back ^^ also I do hope major Kael fans think I did him justice. I really was iffy at first with the idea but as I wrote I began to realize how truly awesome things would be if they went down like that. Especially with the whole rebirth theme of a phoenix, and how well, yeah. He could be given another chance like Illidan did.
I, for one, would love to see Kael’thas make a comeback! This time, as a Blood Prince or Blood King, and have him rule alongside an NPC, named after you, Your Majesty, Oh Blood Queen Fallynn!!!
You know what occurred to me. A fun racial would be if they could temporarily transform into a bat that could fly kind of like druid’s flight form. However maybe that might be a bit op for a racial?
