No offense, but how old are you Aldrius?

What does that have to do with anything? I'm 17, and I think as a person. I've changed a TON. But fandamentally? I'm the same person I was when I was 4. I'm smarter, yes. I understand more, yes. I've realized more about myself, and I'm much more self-aware. I understand that people change, and I think Tyrande has changed. I just think that again, at her most basic she's the same person. She's an extremist and she's emotional. She smashes those who she hates, and loves those she loves with all her heart. (i.e. Illidan and Furion)

I will have to disagree with you, I don't think her personality changed at all, its just she didn't show her true personality in WC3. Her personality in TFT is very similar to the personality we see at the end of WOTA. Why would she not act how she normally does? Continue down.

Well I can't comment on that. I haven't read the last WotA book. But really, how was Tyrande acting in tFT? She wasn't that different from RoC. She was still treating the people she loved with compassion. Still loving with Furion, still pleading for Illidan to redeem himself. And she was treating those she didn't like, like Maiev like second-class citizens. And those she hated (the undead) well she just smashed them.

Depression and independence are not mutually exclusive, nor does depression prevent someone from being independent. Its called a mask, and people will often compensate for inner emotions by acting the opposite of what they really feel, often in an extreme manner. In this case Tyrande missed Malfurion and was stressed after years of battle upholding the Long Vigil, but as leader of the Night Elves she could not show weakness, and so she became super-bitch to hide her sorrow and frustration.

That I understood... but I don't think MISSING Malfurion alone would make her 'super-bitch'. She didn't trust the Outlanders, and even when they came in peace she still was apprehensive to listen to them. Only when Jaina suggested that Thrall and her put their and their warriors lives on the line for the World Tree did Tyrande recognize them as noble people worthy of her protection.
I'm not trying to say she should be MEAN and xenophobic in WotA (or a 'super-bitch')... but that confidence she has in RoC didn't come from nowhere. That mistrust of outside races didn't just show up because Grom killed Cenarius (even though she said so).
Also: Tyrande talks to Broxigar like a child. Tyrande has no patience. She has patience for Illidan, but that's a completely different case.
And she talks like a woman from 16th century britain. "Are you alright Malfurion?
You look as if chilled..."
Does that really sound like something Tyrande would say? It sounds like she's describing him like a science experiment... then again, they all talk like that.
Anyway, I've spent like half an hour staring at this, and I can't really focus so I'll leave it at that for now.
