    "Suspicious Character"

    I logged onto my freshly 85 Paladin last night, and just as a do I saw, what looked like, an NPC "Suspicious Character". He was hiding behind the General Goods Vendor in Nordrassil. He looked like a blood elf and was red but didn't appear to be attack-able. As soon as I tried to click on him he vanished.

    I asked the guild about it and no one seemed to have any input. Then I searched the forums and didn't see anything.

    Anyone know anything about this? Part of a quest or phasing? Maybe pre-MoP things happening like the earthquakes before Cata?

    It was US Dark Iron. I wouldn't even know how to get on a private server.

    It was in the NE building in Nordrassil. My hearth is set there. So I had hearth'ed and logged out facing the Vendor. When I logged back in he was there for only a second. I'll keep my hand hovered over the SS next time I log in.

    WowHead and WoWWiki have nothing on this, so either you found something truly special, have made a mistake, or made that up.

    If what you say is true, OP, this is something I will have to check out for myself, that sounds...well...suspicious.

    Oooh...intriguing.

    Side note: I have the WotLK item in my bag that makes me "Haunted". Always play ignorant when someone sees the specter following me. =)

    I can understand the skepticism. I'll keep an eye out. In the mean time perhaps someone else will see something similar and find this thread.

    Maybe you were just sleep-deprived and seeing things, OP?

    its one of these reasons:

    1. A addon made so it looked like it
    2. Blizzard made something wrong
    3. Bugg
    4. Your lying
    5. You were stoned

    Checked mop.wowhead too, more likely that something woulda had been picked up there. Nothing.
    And even still, of all places to have a pre-MoP event thingamajiggle, or even something surrounding Theramore.. why a blood elf in Hyjal?
