Oh my god so many badly RP'd Blood Elves.

They're more fucked up more often than Night Elves ever were.

To be fair, they have been compared to vampires in the Shadow of the Sun story. I think the "blood" appellation and vampire overtones are intentional, they just don't suck blood, but mana.

Pretty much how I feel about it. I mean, they aren't exactly THAT disimiliar from "playing" a vampire in many respects. They have lived unnaturally long lives compared to humans, they are addicted to a substance (although that is downplayed now with the sunwell lit up.), they turned to evil sources to sate said hunger, they have fangs, pale skin and drain the mana (in some cases life) of some living things. They like the sun though, their cool with that business. I'd argue that a good Bloodelf roleplayer SHOULD have a healthy dose of "Vampire" ideal and an understanding of their general pathos, not in the cliche sense but rather the same things. The plights and emotional concepts of most vampire literature aren't that different really. Shit... now I'm tempted to play Nick Knight... Bloodknight Detective.

Statement: True, but the Darkfallen really didn't help. Also, WTF happened to the Wretched? I would give Blizzard all my money if I could make my Blood Elf a Wretched.

In all reality, after the sunwell fired itself back up, the wretched don't seem all that viable. There weren't that large in numbers to start with in an already small population, I'd say they were likely all killed by the player/bloodelven hand, died of addiction complications or got better because of the sunwell feeding and purifying their... problems.

Statement: Bah, that seems like such a cop-out. The moment the sunwell was restored, they all instantly stood up straight, got a nice tan, got their hair restored and used Proactiv: Azeroth Edition for those unsightly crystals?

I'm looking forward to "The SoL Guide to RP volume 2: Humans, Forsaken and Worgen"

1. Derail everyone elses roleplaying with constant bitching/wanking about Lorderon or Sylvanas. Proclaim your stance over and over and over again in trade chat in every city if theres no roleplay to disrupt.

2. Repeat

Tell me it was before TBC end please

the name Nick Knight remembers me of Lady Gaga too

Ahh, alright.. Gotcha

The addiction never killed anyone who wasn't already very infirm, very young, or very old.

Besides, there are only two Wretched who are not killed on sight. One is captured for info on his brethren, and the other is begging for help.

Needless to say, the blood elves most likely killed them all, being the "killed a guy I wouldn't have killed a year ago because they didn't change exactly the same as I did" kind of race.

High elves might not have been as slaughtered due to not looking deformed, but I do not doubt many partisans did kill them to help run them off.

and because they were mostly a threat to political stability than a security threat (unlike the Wretched that were occuping towns, killing people, etc)

__________________

Political threats are always couched in terms of security threats. IE: "those protestors were shot because they're working with the enemy!"

Also, what the flying fuck is up with your sig? Fact Core Sylvanas?

I think they were probably threatened to GTFO of Quel'Thalas, like with soldiers, and probably beaten up/mind controlled if they got aggresive. But I dont think that any of them were killed as they still are normal and have senses of self preservation. The wretched on the other hand are like junkies who havent got their fix in some time and are desperate, just ten time worst so their senses arent at their best.

Gaga. Usual stuff in me here. Whatever

WTF is Fact Core

Well, the text are on the WoWhead comments.

It's interesting to point this:

Seems to indicate that the night elves (not only the Highborne) have stone structures.

The text also has a Darnassian copy, but I think it's just Blizzard trolling us. I'll post it in the SoL Project Linguistics.
