Playable Alliance Quel’dorei.

These Quel’dorei?

I think they just need customisation options for that.

[Avarie-farstriders]

Same here, too serious.

Shadowlands questline: we go there, resurrect all the slain high elfs that didnt become undead and bring em back to azeroth. Bam!high elf allied race for alliance! still makes more sense than the void elf allied race questline

Plot twist, since they were mostly in Bastion, they still end up blue, just a warmer shade of it lol. Unclear why they would join the alliance since Quel’thalas was independent at the time, I guess it would take a lot of convincing from Alleria and Vereesa to be feasible.

I’d rather meet up with High Elves that fled their timeline, or have the High Elves’ default faction be the Silver Covenant. But I agree that one you suggested makes more sense than how the Void Elves were introduced. Hope my suggestion made more sense as well.

Honestly the whole VE issue rendered the population argument moot. High Elves have appeared far more than VE’s and with in game representation and lore set up there is just no way there can be more VE and HE’s at this point.

Or a questline to those high elves at telogrus join the void elves, they could learn how to drain void creatures like alleria, and become void elves, but keep their original skin tones and hairstyles.

To be honest the reason why VE’s look like that is specific to their botched ritual; the other way we have seen a Void Elf be made? Alleria syphoning a Naaru. So if the process can’t be replicated, it would stand to plausibility that new VE would be made more in an Alleria way, so they should look like her.

Unless of course, and likely, they figure out another way of making VE’s with the exact same side effect than the first botched ritual hehe.

Alleria was able to harness and use the void before the events in Argus. Her consuming the void revenant and then L’ura made her powers much greater, but that does not mean every other void elf should be on the same level. Maybe hunting down and consuming void creatures could be the path of the void elves, with prestige ranging on each one’s success in getting more powerful.

Besides, it’s not like the canon void elves have any known way of creating more of themselves anyway. Or, at least, there’s none shown in the actual story so far.

Indeed; in that way Void Elves would be made more akin how Demon Hunters are made, pretty much what Alleria did tbh. It doesn’t have to end up consuming a naaru, it can be another powerful Void Entity.

I will say that this could end up in new VE’s that look like the original ones, if the only reason Alleria gets to look like a high elf is because by eating a Naaru, she now has her own sort of light/void cycle that just shows up like that bhahah.

I mean, everything to not let the alliance have playable human colored elves!

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

That’s gimmick infringement.

[Sarallesta-shattered-hand]

Wrong. All you need is… Love.

[Valarían-hydraxis]

Guess you didn’t read the education lesson I gave you above Sigh

And Yes we know Sin’dorei are High elves to just renamed.

[Talendrion-wyrmrest-accord (Talendrion)]

Why do people live to feign ignorance?

[Avarie-farstriders]

I can only ask for your forgiveness!

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

Everybody gets one.

[Guzzle-barthilas]

I know, right?

We all know Nightborne are the official Highborne race.

[Sarallesta-shattered-hand]

Why do people live to feign ignorance?

I do not know the meaning of how to live to feign ignorance. Teach me oh master.

[Talendrion-wyrmrest-accord (Talendrion)]

I do not know the meaning of how to live to feign ignorance. Teach me oh master.

You must be a savant because you do it so well without even meaning it!

[Sarallesta-shattered-hand]

Well, to be fair, he did say “Quel’dorei”. Highborne are also “Quel’dorei”.

Ugh, I wish they add Highborne customisations to Night Elves though

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

You must be a savant

I read this as servant.

[Guzzle-barthilas]

Uh…

Good one?

[Midare-area-52 (Midare)]

From the page on Anastarian. Note that it also says not all elves believed him when he blamed the humans, but enough did for him to secede from the alliance, so clearly even though he was King, having the support of his people mattered.

Sorry I keep getting sidetracked. This seems to be on point and yet, I kind of remember it otherwise, maybe something in Chronicles but I might be wrong. I’ll have to double check when I have the chance.

And I never said every high elf chose to stay for family. Just that there are other reasons they could have stayed beyond cowardice. There may have been some who were cowards but that doesn’t mean they all are.

But see, that’s trying to minimize what they did.

And Vereesa is the only Windrunner I like at this point.

Oh, this is what originally distracted me. I got too hanged up on that like… “I can’t even”.

[Renotarshil-malganis (Renotarshil)]

No, bad one. People need to be free and not enslaved.

[Talendrion-wyrmrest-accord (Talendrion)]

Well, to be fair, he did say “Quel’dorei”. Highborne are also “Quel’dorei”

See, you are wonderful at feigning ignorance! Even when everyone here knows what Quel’dorei he was referring to, you still claim without a hint of shame to just have misunderstood. That’s just a level of commitment I can only applaud, you play a fool so well.

Ugh, I wish they add Highborne customisations to Night Elves though

Have to agree on this tho, I would love Shrendalar Highborne -and yes I am being specific in case you wanna keep being a silly goose!- customization for NE

[Avarie-farstriders]

What they did as in not returning? There’s no proof that they didn’t return out of cowardice, nor do I think they were obligated to return to a place where people were fine with what Arthas was doing, even to other high elves, until it was being done to them.

[Sarallesta-shattered-hand]

I know exactly what he actually did mean, but the argument still stands about “want fair skin blonde High Elf, the horde is waiting”.
