11/14/2018 12:30 PMPosted by Abrahof11/13/2018 09:06 PMPosted by DosekiIf I'd be so bold... what defines Paladin?I'm going to second this. I think this is really the crux of the argument. When Blizzard says paladin, do they mean human paladins or do they mean all "paladins". A Sunwalker, Blood Knight, Prelate, are only paladin in name only due to game play. Do we, or more importantly blizzard, consider them paladins in the traditional sense? I third this. I think it makes more sense that humans were simply the first to term them paladins. Before being titled a paladin, Uther was a knight and …

11/13/2018 03:18 PMPosted by DanmorasThe worgen curse hasn't been the most coherent thing put in game I feel, is it biological? is its magical? Is it a combination? is it neither? In the hopes that maybe it helps make more sense of this, I'm going to draw some parallels between the worgen curse and the plague of undeath.Necromancy - the art of raising a corpse into undeath - is purely magic. The feat it performs cannot be done without magic. However, the plague of undeath was a way for the Scourge to spread necromantic magic biologically, turning vast numbers of afflicted humans into undead. T…

As corpses generally don't have a working bloodstream, and the curse is usually spread through blood, I think an undead falling victim to the curse would be unlikely, barring outside magical influences such as Arugal.As for what I said about transmutation, I don't know if anything other than arcane follows the same divisions of magic schools; my point there was that magic like that exists. If the other kinds of magic do use the same schools, then I can almost guarantee druid forms would be under transmutation.Edit: I'm slightly confused by that last bit in your post. It's 100% a magical curse.…

Blood magic - which DKs use - is a tortured form of life magic, so it isn't as incompatible with the undead as you might think.Given that the worgen curse is a magical curse, whether or not a corpse could grow hair doesn't even need to be considered. It's simply accomplished through magic.As for what kind of magic:https://wow.gamepedia.com/The_Schools_of_Arcane_Magic_-_TransmutationTransmutation is the likely culprit. It covers spells like polymorph. Unlike illusions, which aren't real, transmutation can literally transform something into something completely different. Such as a murloc into a…

11/11/2018 02:04 AMPosted by FlarepulseA mage could mask or nullify the scent of something by using magic, right? The first thing that comes to mind is the small questline before the Culling of Stratholme dungeon where the scourge disguise plagued grain in order to get it into the city. I don't recall how effective the disguises were, just that the adventurers were able to see through it easily enough and dispell it with a quest item provided by Chromie.https://wow.gamepedia.com/The_Schools_of_Arcane_Magic_-_IllusionThough it only mentions invisibility and inaudibility, I'd imagine illusion ma…

11/06/2018 06:32 PMPosted by GoramnIs there any concrete sources that tell us where the human trappers in the Grizzly Hills come from?From what I can find, there are three possibilities; 1) original inhabitants descended from vrykul, though we’re told they were killed when the Lich King first developed the plague of Undeath. (2) Peasantry descended from the forces brought by Arthas to support his forces. (3) Peasantry brought by the Alliance in the build up to the to their push against the Arthas as the Lich King.Can the lore keepers here add anything? Unfortunately, I could not dig up anythin…

Historically, the Blue Dragonflight regulated arcane magic (and only arcane). The reason they didn't interfere with the War of the Ancients is because Deathwing used the power of the Demon Soul to wipe out most of the flight.Currently, the Blue Dragonflight has been officially disbanded by Kalecgos, so there is little to no regulation being done by them.Info taken from Wowpedia:https://wow.gamepedia.com/Blue_dragonflightEdit: Basically, Bankotsü had everything covered. But there's a link to a source, if you wanted to look anything over.

I mentioned this in your other thread, but this is an idea I'd totally be down to RP with.If you'd like, I can make a character to RP with yours regularly.As for which faction would be better suited, it's hard to say. There's a lot more Alliance on MG than Horde, but I'm not sure that it means much in this case. The Horde is also looking to bring new people to their side to help the faction imbalance, so they're worth checking out.There's a thread somewhere on our forums here where there's a bunch of resources available for aspiring Hordies. If I can find it, I'll edit in a link.Edit: https://…

In my opinion, your idea could be pretty fun, supposing you found a group of people willing to go along with it.The majority of people I assume would either write off your character as crazy, or flat out ignore them. RPing the game world as the game it is would be rather immersion breaking.So if you're alright with possibly cutting off potential RP with most people, and have a reliable group that will RP with you, it'd certainly be something neat to try out.Honestly, I'd totally go along with it. Just make a group of people that all start new characters, RP out the story with you being you, an…
