Bump. For the love of all that is Kaldorei, Blizzard, sticky this!

Then sticky guides to roleplaying human, gnome, draenei, blood elf, tauren, orc, goblin, dwarf, worgen, troll, and whatever other races I missed.

Oh Daggles, Daggles, Daggles...

Thanks for the bump.

Wardens

Wardens are an elite group of Night Elf special ops. Wardens are tasked with destroying or capturing dangerous targets that are either too strong or too well hidden for normal Sentinels to apprehend. Wardens have a special weapon called the Umbra Crescent, the unit’s signature circular blade. A Warden would likely have a lengthy military background, even by Night Elves standards.

I didn't read through the comments on this thread, but I'd like to point out that while some of the remaining Wardens have been commissioned to perform tasks of this sort, they've always been more of a secret police force than anything else. They guard the prisons, capture fugitives, and serve as bounty hunters when needed. This isn't to downplay the tremendous effect that Wardens do have in the realm of warfare, but anyone hoping to understand them should understand their primary function.

Otherwise, I loved your post!

Finally a well-developed guide to roleplaying a Night Elf. And one that's actually on the Warcraft forums! I would recommend anyone trying to roleplay a Night Elf to READ THIS. For all of our sakes. I especially liked this part:

Night Elves are flower children/hippies/ditzy
Night Elves are a fierce, xenophobic, feral race. They are almost fanatical about protecting nature and do kill to achieve their goals. It is also strongly suggested that Night Elves bottle their emotions to put on a strong and/or proper front for everyone who watches them. The usual outward appearance of a Night Elf is usually stoic, strong and direct. Ditzy, giggly or boisterous attitudes would be considered shameful and childish.

It drives me crazy when I see the Night Elf females frolicking along through Stormwind in their dresses 'n' such acting like fairy princesses. Honest to God, makes me sick. So props to you Melyria! Sticky this Blizz!

Much <3 Gero

Another bump

He has a point, I don't know why you're being dismissive

Nice thread...it helped me know better this race!
For the death knight lore....

Death Knight
Kaldorei Death Knights are pariahs, even more so than human death knights. Night Elves revere nature and undeath is at odds with nature. The vast majority of Night Elves would likely shun or even act hostile toward a Night Elf who is undead. The death knight itself is likely even more bitter and self loathing than usual. I would not count it out that there was a mass suicide of Night Elf death knights after their freedom, many not even wanting to continue on in such a state.

I partially agree on this because it seems strange that dk would suicide rather than continue their fight against their former master, even though they're rejected by society! Cause death knight seems to me as lone-wolfs, don't you agree?

This wouldn't be about 'being rejected by society'. This is about suddenly having your free will and finding yourself to be the most horrifying, blasphemous, disgusting thing on the planet.

The speculated suicide would be in the name of self disgust and wanting to restore balance. Many (if not most) Kaldorei would rather be 'true dead' than undead.

Bump, found this on the third page and that will not do!

Ferolar Yamasukiyo Grizzleclaw is the Archdruid of Teldrassil and is half Highborne, but has orange glowing eyes. Also he has bird wings coming out his shoulder blades and they're black. He's also got antlers and is high supreme shan'do of Darnassus.
No really, he hangs out in Fandral's old room. Its legit.

I'm posting his char description here under the thinly-veiled guise of asking for advice but really I'm just so awesome that I know you couldn't possibly find anything wrong with it so really I'm just here to show off.

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK
