The Void Elves Discussion thread

[Ardenaso]

Give us actual void/high elf lore and stories, please!

I keep on saying this but I really hope the Silver Covenant restores Eldre'thalas as a new arcane hub for the Highborne, High Elves, and Void Elves

Umbric is Kirin Tor? Or new Silver Covenant recruit?

Do the void elves get blood elf hairstyles?

[FossilFree]

Man, I'm stoked! Now I have to think of a good RP to spin in my head for a new toon.

[DeicideUH]

Do the void elves get blood elf hairstyles?

No, just skins for now.
I think Blizzard will keep hair styles unique per race, but there will probably be a future pass for new styles for allied races.

He also made new skins for some other allied races:

Those Kul Tiran hairdos look beautiful on void elves!

Can't say the same for the Kul Tirans...

They have black hair in the screenshots. by the looks of it they get non-void hairstyle equivalents, and non void hair colors if I was to guess. We will have to see when the data mining comes.

I honestly think the black hair is an oversight. It's been in the game files since void elves were first added. You can find void elf NPCs walking around Stormwind occasionally w/ the black hair. Maybe they'll add it, but we'll see.

[Redzonetode]

This was legit their example of Void Elves with regular skin though, why would they choose a bugged hair color to show that off? I doubt it honestly. It makes too much sense with the adjusted hairstyles. it's likely a toggle for void effects that decide whether or not hair colors/styles are voidy.

Why would they show them with blood elf underwear?

Because it was rushed. They admitted on twitter that they'll just have the regular void elf underwear, not blood elf. But like I said, we'll see.

The new Entropic Embrace needs to change the hair color to that Alleria-ish color when she is in her photo-negative EE form.

I think so too.

From what I see, they have wet versions of high elf hair. I wonder what is their colour palette.

White hair looks good on void elves.

[Oswen]

It may sound silly but I'd prefer for Void Elves to keep their "racial underwear" even when using High elf skin tones.
But I guess it's probably still work in progress and things may hopefully change by the time everything goes live.

[ravenmoon]

With void elves getting normal skins and multiple eyes colors (I so want those pink eyes!), I think the high elf request will finally die, so let's more to the next one:

Give us actual void/high elf lore and stories, please!

(And I hope for ranger tatoos on void elves).

Now this I think is a far healthier one as well.

Agreed actually

Silverleafs cusotimisation corruptions also look quite good.

There's a blue post stating that void elves will indeed have their void elfy underwear with the new skins and not blood elf undies.

[Pheraz]

Small news for void elf fans: Entropic Embrace visual has been changed in Shadowlands.



- Skin color is darker (way better, IMO).
- Hair is no longer covered by the void effect.

Looks a lot more like Alleria's now.

Hey that's really cool, could you link to where you found that? Thanks in advance!

[Thalassian Bob]

Yeah... Unfortunately... The Kul Tirans have a criminally small range of customisation options on live. Hopefully that'll be amended in later SL patches.

Mhmm!

The artist Faebelina (who has unfortunately deleted her DA account for some reason) does some lovely void elf art:


(I particularly like that out of breath one >:3)









She does beautiful Kaldorei art too!

Can't remember who this art belongs to, but I really like their style:

I have Alpha access, I took the screenshot myself.

Most people dislike Deviantart due to terrible moderation, piss poor site design and staff's absolute unwillingness to listen to users. Any people still left on DA are just relics too stuck in their ways, or just remember to dump their art there months after they posted it elsewhere.

Faeb does have a twitter, which is the primary art site these days. The fact that it is also absolute terrible as a gallery tells how bad the situation is overall.

I really like the astral/star aesthetics in these fanarts. It's a shame the author deleted their account.

Ahh, that makes a lot of sense. I did feel like it seemed more barren when I've visited it in more recent times! I guess that's why

Yeah, I think the stars are a nice aesthetic niche for void elves to fill with the Sin'dorei having the sun and Kaldorei the moon.

Aye. At least she's still active on twitter and elsewhere as Lahis pointed out above though!

[Ardenaso]

Now that you can RP as High Elves, I'd like to see someone wearing anything close to these




No High Elf Lieutenant custom skin yet atm
