nice! I play wow as well XD

>o< Hehe! I don't actually.

-Rowan

thats ok i still love trolls and orcs and goblins <3

Me too ^o^ heheh Married an orc in Skyrim, and all.

-R

normally I prefer the elvish//Barbie/holy type of female characters but I fell in love when I saw the new female orc model XD

the tags say orc, but the tusks say troll.

Really? I usually see people draw tusks on their orcs. ^o^ Either way, I had to go with the sketch I was given. I'm just the interpreter!

-Rowan

bah dont listen to them , orcs do havesmall tusk/teeth and ive seen some with very large teeth/tusk too. The reason i think they are thinking troll is because of the blue skin and green hair. I thought this was a troll from wow actually. She looks a lot like the new models

I was reminded of them too.

Now I'm curious to see them, hehe ^o^

-R

There you go: http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2.....um-d2ym3dq.gif The colors for trolls ingame range from minty green over light and dark blue to purple. They also have a broad range of colors for their hair, red, orange, pink, purple, white, blue and green. Also that braided hairstyle isn't uncommon for them. http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress.....ft-720x463.jpg

So there certainly is a semblance. I guess nobody complains though, she looks really cute.

Hahaha I think the trollfeet are kinda weird but cute in a way. And thanks! Glad you like the way this one turned out.

-Rowan

Yeah, the feet sometimes are brought up ingame. The priest class has a funny skill to get other people's characters to confess something. One confession is, that the character is scared of troll feet. Bonus points for making a troll confessing this.

Nice! :) I haven't seen the WoW trolls. Honestly I just wanted to give her a pretty shade of dark green hair, and chose the sort of blue-grey skin to complement it. I've seen orcs be anything from green, to grey, black, bluish, even orange. And I'm not upset about it at all ^o^

-Rowan

They have a broad spectrum of colors which vary from franchise to franchise, so they also are quite colorful in WoW. The common orcs players encounter the most are green. The player can also create orcs in different shades of green, one skin tone of the old models was almost yellow and looked rather unique. With the first expansion players learned that demonic corruption turned most orcs green, even generations after they redeemed themselves. Before the corruption they had a brown coloration. Players also encountered red fel-orcs as enemies, so that are the predominant colors of orcs in WoW. The range between green, blue and purple was always troll territory, at least in WoW that is, although the nightelves also kinda run with the purple color. Considering the trolls might be the ancestors of the nightelves in WoW lore, there is no surprise in similar coloring.

Still, a cute girl.

Cool :) I am always intrigued by how detailed WoW is becoming with their stories and backstories building on each other.

-Rowan

WoW has found its stride when it comes to lore. Every Warcraft game before WoW was kind of vague of some story aspects and also of some of the maps, they often shifted between games and even the DLC of Warcraft III, The founding of Orgrimmar which would lead directly to WoW was had kinda different map design than WoW had. But apart from the differences of earlier games and occasional contradictions in earlier established lore it's very consistent now. The story arcs are accompanied by expanded universe short stories, books and comics and the arcs lead directly from one expansion into the next now. Also there is now good character development for the lead characters involved, although most players seem to care more about their damage per second and item levels than lore.

Yeah I kinda had the impression it's still a big competitive MMO in spite of all the cool stuff >o<

-Rowan

Yeah. That mindset kinda ruins the fun. Of course hardcore raider often say that they really enjoy the game but are among the first to suffer burnout like symptoms because they focus to much on endcontent equipment spirals and daily grinding instead on all the other entertaining aspects the game provides. I was told more than once I didn't know what the game was all about or how to play, but I still enjoy it today while the people telling me how to play or what to turn my attention towards and who were to obsessed with being the best all left long ago. I knew how I could keep things interesting and took breaks, both, short and long, every now and then when the game seemed stale, to prevent me from being bored to death in between content patches. I guess I didn't was so wrong after all...

It really sounds like you have the right idea! ^o^ Why would they even have side content and stories and backstories if the whole point was just "gettin better equip and beat on the nuubs broh" ?

-Rowan

Possibly to keep the casual gamers entertained... That would probably have been their answer. But well, they are just a fast exchanged and replaced vocal minority. Still, some RP aspects have vanished in thin air, even on RP realms. I think it's mostly because people don't really expect to find other players who are still caring for those things these days.

It's a shame that those things are fading! :( Our favorite game experiences have always been story, exploration, crafting, and customization.

-Rowan

To bad that there was a demographic shift in the player base. Those were the things I was enjoying too. Now it's just the daily grind and weekly raid people are talking about.

I love how it came out, thx for completing my sketch! I was afraid no one would do it cuz I went full hipster and did a girl XD

Ooooooh I'm so happy you responded! I couldn't find you >o<

I really didn't mind it being a girl. I had fun!

-Rowan

I'm glad you had fun with her, thx again xP

(on second thoughts that sounds so wrong lol)
