Seeing as Theramore and Gilneas are two of my favorite cities in WoW, it would be cool if Blizzard used Gilneas art to rebuilt a darker Theramore. Filled with ideas that could’ve been used in Gilneas itself.
The Worgen story really feels abandoned compared to Goblins after they left Gilneas. they have no home, just a few tree houses (one in darnasus, one in blasted lands (home to a hostile Worgen), one in Felwood. Giving Theramore to the Worgen can make Worgen fans feel like the Worgens finally have a place to call home.
Heres and idea of how it can workout :
Theramore :
A dark, gloomy city built on the ruins of the old Theramore by the Gilnean refugees. The lands were given to the Worgen by the Night Elves after the Horde, after days of negotiations, agreed to withdraw it’s troops from around the old city and retreat back to Brackenwall village (now a fortified base).
Layout :
Theramore’s architecture will be similar to Gilneas due to the fact that it was the people of Gilneas who rebuilt it, the city will be dark and the environment around it is dead as a side effect of the mana bomb that destroyed the last city.
Some also say that ghosts run rampant in the sewers beneath the city where hundreds of innocent people died from the explosion. These ghosts sometimes appear to wander in the streets of the new city for unknown reasons.
Theramore will be ruled by Mayor Gwen Stefane, the old Mayor of Gilneas. And Tess Greymane will be in charge of the Gilneas guard.
The city hall will be located in the center of the city, the Mage Tower will be moved to the southern corner of the city and the druid camp will be stationed in the northern part of the city, outside the walls and just next to the Theramore gates.
Healing the land :
In order to clean the hazardous residues that Garrosh's mana bomb left behind, a group of Kirin Tor mages have set up a camp to dispel the arcane residues that have distabilized the region and weakened the spectral veil around the ruined city. it is said that demons can cross into Azeroth with little effort from their Azerothian summoners, which makes it important for Kirin Tor to heal the veil quickly before any followers of legion does something to put the entire Azeroth in danger. Kirin Tor mages are situated in a new Mage Tower located in the southern corner of Theramore. (the Tower is no longer in the center of city.)
Also, in order to heal the lands that suffered from the mana bomb , Worgen druids led by their Night Elven mentors have set up a camp north of Theramore just next to the city gates, the tiny spot of land around their camp is lush and green as a result of their nature magic. but even that small amount of healing is not permanent as they need to recast spells day and night else what little healing that their efforts have done will die out.
Possible questing locations :
-A special brigade is formed to patrol the marshes and root out the dangers that lurk around the town. Players can assist them in clearing the dangerous marshes of dustwallow of monsters.
-A team of monster-hunters (appearance similar to Witchers) have started their operations in Theramore. Players will assist them in hunting down the ghosts that lurk around the town haunting the citizens. Later they will decend into the sewers to find the reason of this problem.
-Mayor Gwen will give you diplomatic missions. You will be given temporary immunity in Brackenwall fortress to deliver diplomatic messages.
-Tess Greymane will give you the quest to hunt down a serial killer. And you will assist the guards in hunting down this dangerous predator before he kills his next victim.
-Rumors of a vampire menace are traveling ear to ear, you will be sent to the newly constructed Swamplight mansion to investigate. The mansion is built on the land which previously was known as Swamplight Manor. But soon you will realize the truth about the mansion and the horrors that it hides.
-Druids and Mages will both receive separate quests from Kirin Tor agents/Theramore Druids to assist them in healing the island and cleaning it of hazardous arcane residues.
Docks and ships : Theramore will have 3 ships, one will take you to Menethil Harbor, another will sail to Darnassus and the last one will take you to Kul’Tiras (if Blizzard adds it in the future.)
