So with Allied races getting some customization and slated for a possible customization further in Shadowlands via major patches I thought it would be nice to have a thread on stuff for Zandalari Trolls.
Tattoos
So we already have some tattoos adding more tattoos would be really appreciated. Adding more tattoos and tattoo colors would be great! We have seen some trolls use a blue in Throne of Thunder so more colors would be appreciated.
-Loa based tattoos. I would like to see some tattoos of the primal loas. And more inclusion of Gral the shark loa. He has his own Hairstyle already.
Warpaints
So we have seen via datamining orcs will have both tattoos and warpaint. So I would like this for the Trolls! We do not have such a high skin tone variety like the darkspear will so adding much variety in colors would be appreciated here.
-Warpaints patterns based on Loas. Especially those that aren’t represented much in the Zandalari culture. Gral, Torcali, Torga, Jani, A gold warpaint color effect would be cool since they live in a city of gold ; )
Especially loa like Bwonsamdi, Pa’ku, Kimbul
trinkets/piercings of the various loa, shark earings, bat earings, jani teeth necklaces,
more hair colors, tiger orange, blondes, dark necrotic colors for Bwonsamdi followers, and maybe some aquatic colors for gral and torga.
I hope not. We have some interesting Darkspear troll customization. The void elves are getting some nice skin tones. 14 of them. So I am hoping some stuff can be used for Zandalari, especially warpaints and tatttoos.
I’d love a few customization options which allow for more resemblance towards Mueh’zala and Hakkar too. This could easily be in the form of warpaints and forehead tusks/horns (like the kind Mueh’zala has). More representation pl0x!
Additional hair colors are a definite yes too, but I’d love it if we could get themed highlights like the blazing look on Dark Iron dwarves. Mayhaps a suave gold/sapphire for regular Zandalaris and a drippy blood for those who identify with blood trolls more.
I believe the Darkspear will get blood troll warpaints! And with the dark troll skin tones and rewarpaint that would be awesome if you want to rp as one. I think blood trolls may have dark crimson skin I can’t remember though. I would like the highlights but idk how that would work. I would like more eyecolors too but lorewise I am unsure which colors would work besides greens and blues.
No facial options for Darkspear or Zandalari in game or datamined ;(
If they played it as something like albinism or an alternate dark troll skin, I’d be okay with it, the latter idea would be a retcon but I personally wouldn’t mind it. But actual blood trolls? That’s a bit far for me.
The troll factions in the Horde, especially the Zandalari, are not fans of blood trolls at all. I doubt the other races of the Horde care for them much either. With G’huun dead, it’s possible I guess, though anything is possible to be honest, since Blizzard can do anything they want.
What in the book makes you think Talanji wouldn’t mind them? The blood trolls were the fanatical servants of G’huun, who’s responsible for Talanji’s father being dead, and several loa, like Torga, Rezan, Shadra, and Hi’reek.
Don’t have any hard evidence on me at this exact moment but as far as I remember their souls went to feed G’huun. [incorrect, they did actually go to Bwonsamdi]
Sure, G’huun is gone now, and they could use that as some way to redeem blood trolls, but that’d be extremely weird, because after what G’huun did, them being his servants, I don’t think the other trolls would forgive them all that easily, if at all.
