Why the lack of Customization?

Red eyes for Blood Elves please! Along with deathly skin tones (could be from DK since you already took our hair).

A fang/claws toggle would also be sweet

I made this using WoWhead, they are Blood Elf NPC options that would be LOVELY to have, please and thank you! Hope this will be passed on for those of us who want the darker side of blood elves to be reflected!

Also, if red eyes are added, I’d like them accessible to DK! All DK as a matter of fact!

Since repetition is a good idea, still boosting San’layn for the Horde, either through Allied Race or Blood Elf customization.

Also, if you’re against my points and such, don’t name drop me on threads I’m not involved in, that’s incredibly toxic, thanks.

Adding this here as well from my thread to explain why San’layn on the Alliance do not make sense:

@Fallynn-wyrmrest-accord

The San’layn should go to the Alliance.
No…they shouldn’t. There are several posters arguing this to be petty, as proven by them saying “We should have a Horde request”. On the off chance there’s 1-2 Alliance players that actually believe this, however, I will explain why it makes no sense in lore.

The San’layn tried joining the HORDE in Battle for Azeroth. We do not know if they accomplished their mission, for it could have been ‘delay the Alliance from intervening with our mission (getting the corpse) at all costs’. In which case, the forsaken-munching would be justified, because it could have been ordered, and we know the San’layn were desperate for a home.

What did the Alliance do in Battle for Azeroth? Oh yes…

@Fallynn-wyrmrest-accord

The Alliance had long since abandoned the Blood Elves by the time San’layn came to be. NOT ONLY THAT, but the Alliance went out of their way to butcher San’layn in the war campaign in Battle For Azeroth.

I am happy to provide sources as a reminder:

"You’ve done the Alliance, and all of Azeroth, a fine service today, .

We will sleep in a better world than we woke to. That is all that can be asked of us.

For the Alliance!"

Look at the language there. The Alliance are not friendly to the San’layn. They see them as bloodthirsty monsters and the entire point of the war campaign was to slaughter them on the Alliance side, meanwhile the Horde’s point was to get the body (which was a stupid plotline anyway but we won’t get into that).

The Alliance slaughtered the San’layn in Battle for Azeroth to the point where many still (wrongly) claim they were made to be extinct (see my points above as to why that’s ridiculous). It makes no reasonable sense for the San’layn to ever join the faction that prevented them from getting the home they needed in BfA and sees them as bloodthirsty monsters.

^ This is an entire FAQ for multiple arguments, of course, so it also talks about the ‘they are extinct’ idea people have which has not been confirmed by any means, and I explain more in there.
