A new race NOT in lore

[Desparatus]

Some kind of Demon.

Yeah, I like that idea.

Suppose we get a Burning Legion themed expansion, we get a renegade race of Demon called the... err, "Demon People" (For the sake of giving them a name) that were residents of the Twisting Nether. Something happened with the Burning Legion, they came across the Demon People and Demon People were tricked into following the Legion because the Legion are sneaky like that.

Some of them break away and head to Azeroth to warn us of the oncoming threat.

They're like big and purple and black and green and stuff with tails.

No hooves though.

But horns, nice big, pointy horns.

And fire. Bits of them are on fire.

Well, that's where my imagination ends. Thanks for coming!

(PS, I know little about the Legion or Nether or anything so I have no idea if that's possible)

Dungeons and Dragons via Spelljammer. I give you the Giff.

There really is nothing new under the sun. Anything is gonna be a redux if you look hard enough, so as long as they do a good job making WoW whatevers distinct in a neat way from say DnD or Tolkein whatevers, I say it's all good.

Reread my quote:
But it'll be hard to find something not already present in one way or another in the game.

There may be Hippopeople elsewhere in speculative literature, but WoW is completely devoid of hippo analogues (i.e., Nesingwary hasn't had us hunt any yet).

That said, I realized there's an entire group of animals that don't appear to exist anywhere in WoW: Aussie animals. No Roos, no Koalas, no Platypi (in before plural debate).

So the next xpac will clearly be a Ashzara/More Southern Isles xpac with Roomen.

[MickM]

A race that lives in the 4th and 5th dimension. At lvl 1 they raid, then after 10 levels, they do heroics, then at lvl 30, they do normal dungeons and at lvl 90 they get their starting-zone!

pls no

Can we have something that isn't a furry? Can we have... I dunno, a robot? Or maybe some kind of cyborg.

Robocop for playable race.

[chrth]

Ok, maybe not Roomen. But at least a Roo mount we ride in.

[Felir]

I wouldn't mind a Demonic race per say. But I doubt they'd be allowed into either faction due to well, Orcs and demon blood never ended well and Alliance are... well, alliance.

[deviantcultist]

A race that is Demonic and has traits similar to the Blood Elves, more like Felblood Elves who are actual demons. I would like this a lot.

[GeordieMagpie]

Zerglings.
Protoss.

umad?

[Grimfrost]

A lion like race would be cool but why would it HAVE to be allience? The allience has wolves and as you all know wolves are a symbol of the horde (the wolf gate in orgrimmar, wolf mounts, etc)

[Eruionmel]

Turtles are reptiles, just because they are associated with water doesn't mean they are amphibious.

Actually, Turtles are amphibious, they just aren't amphibians.

[RecklessMil]

Crab people, crab people. Taste like crab, talk like people...

[Aronaz]

Nagas.

[Mechazod]

Somehow these: http://www.wowwiki.com/Shapeless


And just to piss off the people who complained about the pandaren: http://www.wowwiki.com/Bunny

[Felir]

Nagas.

Naga plz.

That looks dire.

[Kurioxan]

Protoss?? My Life For Aiur!

Eldar! or well, wow's version, draenei :P
Look at draenei and protoss they are almost the same, aside from legs and draenei being made in the fluffy comic silly wow style...


As a suggestion, either an angelic female only race (because fuck males) or a shadow/shade race

[Sylf]

Crab people, crab people. Taste like crab, talk like people...

We already have lobster people with the makkrura, I'd rather they give us more of them then making a new race for the fun of it.
