Why do playable Mag'har have a black skin option with fiery eyes?

I’ve seen this referred to as a Blackrock orc skin, yet no Blackrock orc NPC in the entire game looks like this. Even Blackhand, who actually had a reason to have fiery eyes had pale gray skin.

So, where did this come from? Is this a retcon of the Blackrock orcs, and are the ones on Draenor going to be updated?

Because they have more melanin.

Perhaps it’s their way of letting you pretend to be either Blackrock or Dragonmaw? Maybe a Blackrock/dragonmaw mix :grinning:

Good question. Were the Mag’har ever kangs n shiet?
