Gothic/Emo Jaina Model Datamined - April 1st/Joke!
A new NPC model appeared in the beta game files, this time it's Jaina who gets yet another reskin with a much more emo/gothic look.
I'll give you the obvious, after the changes Blizz did to Chinese WotLK, I doubt that they would a blunt representation of a skull in game like that. But, hey, she is from a sailor's nation. Getting drunk and making tats came be her way to deal it...
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if this was real considering the ruins of theramore. The purple energy in the video looks like something from a Warlock and this emo version of Jaina looks kinda like a warlock version of her. Maybe something happened in theramore that made her turn from priest to warlock? Or I could be wrong and this is an April Fool's joke... :P
Possible. And for the record Jaina is a mage, not a priest.
If this is a joke, it's the best one I've seen all day. The question is who's joking? The guy who originally posted it, or is Blizz punking him? Kinda hoping it's real...
Most amusing, I hope that the information on them merely ‘considering’ changing is accurate as Jaina is one character I don't want to go down the silly 'evil' path. Personally, I hope that she retains her dedication to diplomacy throughout everything. Also, if they do make any changes to her personality or physicality then I hope they place an even greater emphasis on her intellect, wisdom, and power.
As to the comments about ‘tramp stamps,’ this joke is rather good but I don't think we need to be derisive or resort to such crass generalisations about appearance. The negative connotations surrounding female promiscuity and the assumptions so many people make about tattoos really are both prick-ish. I don't have any myself but I make no assumptions about those that do... though what else can you expect from the demographics that this game, and this website, generally attract? Heh.
