    I think it's just the artist's stylistic choice.

    So basically what you're saying is Sylvanas was grieving and she got mad and decided to destroy a entire races home in anger, sounds like something that crazy bitch could do.

    I believe it is the way Blizz decided she should have her makeup as it looks more edgy and meaningful.

    I always assumed the markings on the face in this was supposed to be tears of blood and sacrifice. That's just me though....

    Step One: Create an Undead character.
    Step Two: log in game
    Step Three: /cry
    Conclusion: Undead can cry.

    I thought she was more screaming/rageful. I'd have to watch it again, that's an interesting point.

    they should, but the forsaken are about following sylvanas, so the crest is about her, and her history.

    she is prob the only playable faction in the game that is a dictator and everyone is fine with it.

    I'm less interested in the makeup and more interested in why her skin looks a healthier less undead tone. She was more blue in the Legion cinematic and here she's a more living colour. Interesting detail.

    Yea. If not red eyes she would look identical to nigh elves. Probably advanced senpai lifting...

    Yea that the problem. Forsaken too stuck on Sylvanas. Just imagine old Lordaeron crest in dark/undead tones. Something like this:

    It's not crying, that's just naturally how she looks. I think somewhere Sylvanas might be 'hurting' despite being turned into what she is by Arthas, she still has feelings as hard as that is to believe.

    I don't think anything of the sort was announced at all. One interview by someone that really didn't confirm anything is not an announcement

    Depends on who killed Vereesa though. If it's Night Elves (since she's dying next to their fucking tree) then that's good revenge.

    "But why would NE killed Vereesa ?" Well...same answer than "why any allied race join their faction ?"...wait and see.

    I don't get why people think it is Vereesa, has it been confirmed? That Elf's outfit is closer to Alleria than Vereesa.

    Alleria's outfit is green, Vereesa's is blue like in the picture. Also we know that Alleria is needed because of Void Elves...Vereesa though.

    She got smoke in her eyes as she watched Teldrassil burn, there you go proof that teh Horde burned the tree first....
    When I was younger I used to hope bad things wouldn't happen.
    Now I just hope they're at least funny when they do.

    I am one of those people that are really annoyed that Sylvanas doesn't look like undead at all. :/ I was so looking forward to super creepy picture, but noo.... fanservice must go on.

    I don't think its from crying, but who knows. I do have to say I feel they make her look way too 'alive' in this cinematic. I loved the cinematic, but I prefer how dead she looked in the Legion cinematic. It's rather funny actually how people say that she had markings/tattoos. She had none in WC3 and the only reason I think they went that way with the design is because of her vanilla nelf model having those markings and they stuck with it. I always assumed they were meant to be dark tears from when she was a banshee and to go with the Forsaken crest mask, which represents her.

    can undead even cry?

    the cinematic isn't right after teldrassil burns; the cinematic shows the alliance attacking lordaeron. So at the very least she's had time to sail to the other side of the world
