Void Elf-High Elf Customization Thread

Vulpera don’t even have hair…

They need it, I mentioned that once to Midare and she made me up a picture of a dog with blonde hair and said we should get Karen hairstyles for Vulpera.

[Drede-cairne (Drede)]

This recolored VE hair with the Tendrils removed right?

On of the main reason they need a Tendril toggle IMO. It adds so much more customization.

@Lannisterian-tichondrius

I guess but you’re advocating for options that bring natural hair colors in via a void tentacle route and then advocating for a tentacle toggle hence my opposition on that front.

I’m not.

@Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord

I’d like to see that being our tentacle toggle myself.

I mean this respectfully but you do want a tentacle toggle? It’s not the first time it’s been mentioned which is fine I just think it makes the ‘void hair compromise mock ups’ completely meaningless because a tentacle toggle makes it so.

@Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord

Its blonde but also rather unnatural in its general look and could better give you what you want without having to be non-voidy.

Like for example this is all shown with tentacles my one critique was the roots should show some form of purple as well (more obvious about it from the roots)

If this is meant as a void compromise to get natural hair colors, a tentacle toggle undoes that. Thats how I am seeing that.

@Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord

(Also I appear to be out of likes… Otherwise I’d be liking our little back and forth…)

I’m out and been out for what seems like since last night, I liked like 3 things and it hit a limit again

I do want a tentacle toggle. I feel like its something missing from the original Void Elves. Regardless of skin tones that were added later. We always had two setups. Hairstyles with and without them. As such I think its fair for those interested in the Void options to want a toggle as well as anyone who wants to rp their high elf.

But thats not important to the coloration I was showing off. The Blonde I showed a bit ago I think is an unnatural color of it.

I understand what you mean with it being meaningless from your point of view though.

Which is valid.

If the goal is not to look like a blood elf, given the natural skin tones having that tentacle toggle would be problematic along with that hair color.

@Lannisterian-tichondrius

Like for example this is all shown with tentacles my one critique was the roots should show some form of purple as well (more obvious about it from the roots)

Yeah, I might ask Turokan if they can make a modification to this to kinda show that some. See what your thought ends up with that. The tan-purple metal color of the underwear was used as the roots and ends for this one and I think, personally, its enough to differentiate that its an unnatural color.

@Lannisterian-tichondrius

Entirely fair.

I really wish we didn’t have random limits on it… I’ll never understand that.

@Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord

shifty eyes

What Alleria doesn’t know won’t hurt her?

Please my man, you´re talking to a filthy Horde fan!! “Summon” as much of those behind Alleria´s back as you can!!

At the end the chaos created by the rest of the rigid Light worshipping Alliance will would only benefit my faction (heck, maybe we can manage FOR ONCE to deal with our own stuff instead of being used as the FOTM plot device of Blanduin & Co.)!!

@Fenelon-wyrmrest-accord

More seriously, I do wish there was some contention shown in SW about that. Void Elves should be kinda an iffy thing to most folk, and given the volatility of the whispers from the Void I’d like to see evidence that some issues have arisen for things like that and have had to be dealt with.

The very fact the LF Draenei were like “sure, kewl guys!!” was so BAD narrative wise. Your poor faction suffers from a severe case of Human esque flavoring but NO actually subtancial differentiation between the Alliance races. It´s detrimental cause your Râison d´etre is literally “to fight the Horde”. Remove the Horde and you guys get a mortal identity crisis both as a faction AND as individual races whose only development so far has been: we like each other SO much and accept each other UNQUESTIONABLY and we´re boring to death too while at it. Inhuman portrayal at it´s finests.

@Lannisterian-tichondrius

I´ve been out since early this morning!! I couldn´t upvote the amazing art of Izzabelle in the Belf thread

@Lannisterian-tichondrius

I’m out and been out for what seems like since last night, I liked like 3 things and it hit a limit again

That’s why I use alts to like things when I run out, I mean yeah I’ve hit limit on like 4 characters so far but I won’t let that stop me from liking stuff when this one can’t.

[Ariël-drakkari (Ariël)]

I´m an idiot… ofc I could had had use an alt in the Belf thread /massive facepalm… go Ariël.

BrB, changin to the Monk in there.

Lol, I would love to give everyone nonstop Naughty likes but I run out super fast so I pretty much always have to use my alts.

Omg… can you imagine?

Alliance is busy beating themselves up for once and the Horde just like… Well they’re distracted lets get some stuff sorted.

@Ariël-drakkari

WITHOUT EVEN A WORD!

Drives me nuts… Blizzard needs more world building and less systems.

Old Gods I feel this so hard…

Night elves used to have a little more to them but every chance we get we’re reduced to either the same or lesser than our Alliance counterparts.

Everyone else has some level of oop what are the humans doing lets go do that with no consideration for their own cultures or beliefs.

No wonder the Alliance players tend to feel bland and like we have nothing special.

[Thormus-hakkar]

@Cezol-silvermoon

The point is you don’t have them, they dont need to use High Elves every expansion to establish that the majority of the High elf group are Alliance, this is a long game with a long story and it’s obvious you’ve ignored a good chunk of it.

It’s funny that only High Elves/Silver Covenant are held to this bizarre standard. That if they’re not front in center EVERY SINGLE EXPANSION then they’re neutral or not Alliance anymore. Or that fact that they’re somehow Neutral now because of being involved in the Hunter Class Hall campaign. By that token the Farstriders, Night Elf Sentinels and Forsaken Dark Rangers are also neutral but no one tries to claim that lol.

The Tauren Sunwalkers are pretty irrelevant if you ask me. I guess that means they went neutral or are no longer part of the Horde! Same with the Blood Elf Magisters! They don’t do much. What about the Cult of the Forgotten Shadow? Neutral of course!

Btw i guess we’re going to continue ignoring the fact that only the Alliance can obtain the Silver Covenant’s mounts & Tabard.

[Neferata-stormrage]

Well it is about blood elves. But it got brought up earlier. I’d totally be a blood elf san’layn. I’d faction change so fast lol

[Greatbrae-dalaran]

@Lore-herod

so a toggle doesn’t hurt you at all

Only if that toggle is options between void options and not an all natural option.

[Sledgehammer-bloodsail-buccaneers]

I have my ways.

[Tusao-darrowmere]

Are we still posting on alts?

I like my alts

[Tarrok-thorium-brotherhood (Tarrok)]

That sounds like something that requires way too much effort for me to bother with

[Mootie-darrowmere]

Alternatively, you can just keep posting on a tauren, since that’s what everyone should be doing anyway.

[Tarrok-thorium-brotherhood (Tarrok)]

Damn skippy.

[Oratuok-bronzebeard]

That could be a fun change of pace…

[Kutuk-wyrmrest-accord]

I like this plan.

[Ariël-drakkari (Ariël)]

@Thormus-hakkar

It’s funny that only High Elves/Silver Covenant are held to this bizarre standard.

If we´re terribly strict lorewise speaking, indeed only the SC (the actual damaging fact is how Blizz literally ignores ALL but this particular group)… and that happens because they´re in this weird limbo about being the effective link between “NeUtRaL” Dalaran and the Alliance. Just like the Sunreavers, they are “conveniently” Horde from a certain point of view in-universe and “totes neutral” at the same time by proxy of their affiliation to Dalaran.

@Thormus-hakkar

Btw i guess we’re going to continue ignoring the fact that only the Alliance can obtain the Silver Covenant’s mounts & Tabard.

This is mere gameplay man. The actual reasoning is what I put above as far as actual lore is concerned.

The SC are in a weird limbo thanks to the perchant of the writers to use and discard “characters” at their convenience and NOT following an actual coherent narrative path.

@Tarrok-thorium-brotherhood

That sounds like something that requires way too much effort for me to bother with

Same here.

@Mootie-darrowmere

Ohhh, time to bring the Big Guns!! Sunwalker I summon you!!!
