Indeed. While I am supporting of wanting a High Elf paladin, I feel like a lot of the “High Elves HAVE to be paladins” is just inaccurate. They can, could be, yeah, but it’s not something that defines them, nor remotely iconic.
And oh! I don’t think I have ever seen her! But yeah, I tend not to count the Argent Crusade because its neutrality and they a whole different group, and I try to see at the explicitly alliance High Elf groups, and it’s odd we have just one Priest in there -Although we also know the Highvale ARE light worshipers lorewise, it just doesn’t translate to NPC’s- and in turn, there are 2 High Elf SC Paladins, Isimode and Rulen Lightsreap (and I think there’s another one I’m missing)
In contrast, we have other more commonplace Alliance High Elf NPC’s, predominantly Rangers and Mages, with also Rogues and Warriors appearing in lesser roles. Priests only really appear on flashbacks as Mage-Priests.
