San’layn/vampyr Elf ALLIED RACE Coagulated Megathread of Ideas{Re-VAMPed} (Part 1)

Okay so will Revendreth will become the San’layn hotspot, right?

Overall like it’s so obvious THIS is where their blood curse comes from -as well as the Vampire Vrykul one- We are gonna have a whole zone about San’layn Origins!! AHHH!

Kael’thas is coming back in the story! : ) We can only hope. And uther so maybe more undead customization all around.

Honestly I think it will be to all races, but maybe not so drastic; say, a different skin tone and eye color, pretty much every race is gonna get a “Night Warrior” type thing based on Covenant, that’s my guess!

Im in love.

The best vampires are the monstrous ones.

Reminds me of Warhammers vampire counts. That is how you do vampires.

As well! not only will be about the origin of the undeath curse San’layn have, but we will literally have Kael too? Honestly if the customization allows us red eyes, I do think this is literally best case scenario behind an AR!

"The cunning Venthyr of Revendreth, who feast on the souls of the prideful and vain in a gothic realm of opulence and torment."

I’m going to have a huge problem with this expac, because I don’t think I’ll ever be able to quest in any other zone.

And Kael’thas… hot damn Kael’thas…

Well idk what the story will be. It would be sad to kill him a third time… lol would like an ally situation or at least frenenemy thing going.

Let’s be real here for a moment. Each covenant basically has an AR in the waiting. I will be surprised if they don’t end up playable.

Wasn’t there a recent joke thread about bringing him back? lol

How ironic.

I mean I doubt he will be getting any deader… But it’s the perfect time to make him more of an anti villain.

IMO the only issue is that each of these races are… dead, so IDK, maybe customization based on them rather than AR are what we will get.

Are they though? Most just seem to be native to the Shadowlands. I mean, the Necrolords look properly dead, but that never stopped the Forsaken.

Death does not have to mean the same thing it does to us (in real life). Wow is a different universe. So idk. It would be interesting to get more lore on the races there. The Val’kyr seem to pass through to this world. And dks get there magic from there.

If it was mine, I have never joked about this. I was deathly serious. I, for one, welcome our new Blood Prince.

I mean it is literally the realm of the death, the afterlife where each group gathers souls; it’s hard to think the natives of a land of the dead are alive. I don’t think we will be seeing them crossing over to the living world.

Like think about the spirit healers; we only see them when we are dead; I don’t think any of the races of the Shadowlands should be able to exist on the material world on their own.

I mean true, we do literally have an undead playable race and Val’kyr are undead. So I do think every race from the Shadowlands is technically undead, so IDK how likely any of them to become playable.

I’ve been thinking about this myself, but i don’t know if Arthas stole this power from the the Venthyr or if he was just able to see into the shadowlands and just copied it.

They did update Uther’s tomb awhile back and no one knew why.

I will never get Vlad’s voice out of my head, him constantly screaming. I WANT THEIR SOULS! Every time i moved him over the map in TW Warhammer.

Why not?

I mean, when I think of natives to a land of the dead, I don’t think dead people. I think immortal beings like Gods, Spirits, Demons, etc… kind of looks like we hit the full range of those as well.

The “What’s Next” Panel is now on the Blizzcon schedule, which is at 2:30 PDT. I’ll keep an eye out for some live blogs and will type out my thoughts after that panel ends.

I will say the whole vampire theme part of the next expansion has me intrigued, so hopefully it leads to playable San’layn stuff in the future. :bat:

It seems like some of them are good enough to be playable. The blue humans look cool. The fawns look dope I get a pan’s labrinyth vibe from them. And the female vampires look batty and regal (like some of the suggestions I seen on this thread).

I might be wrong here so correct me if i am, but wasn’t Kael’thas coming back as a Blood Prince one of the ideas from one of the older threads. If so maybe Blizzard is reading what is posted here.

LOL, noted.
