I commissioned the wonderful @avannteth to do a coloured sketch of Dahl’renn with a new hairstyle. Absolutely love how it turned out and now I’m pretty sure he’s going to be tying his hair up into a bun whenever possible... (Plus as someone who has never really liked facial hair of any kind on my OCs, I’m really digging the shadow). Thank you again!

There's such a limited amount of clothing in the game... Are some things just off-limits now because they remind someone of a game or show? lol What a butt.

AND IT’S NOT EVEN LIKE.. Idk I wouldn’t be so grumpy if the dude hadn’t been such a prick about it lmfao But like.. I work really hard to try and make my characters not look like others, so it’s fuckin’ insulting when someone is like “haha you look like this other soandso” and I go, “Oh, that’s not what I was going for,” and they’re just like “haha whatever dude, yeah you were” Like, miss me with that shit, honestly.

Have yourself trypophobia? I do too. You could get an addon for your browser that will hide certain posts with words in it. It’s more effective than tumblr, but it might block things you don’t mind on accident.

Oh I use addons! I don't have it myself (hello let me share all of my drawings of Oliver's bug-ridden skin) but it's still kind of a WELL HI THERE thing and like why bother filtering something if it's just going to suggest it anyway? It's not always reliable, either-- I've had a lot of Flight Rising blogs recommended to me even though I have it blacklisted.

TBH I wish they would just stop suggesting blogs. If I wanted that stuff on my dash, I’d follow it. And I grump when I see people I am purposefully ignoring. Thanks for nothing, Tumblr.

^^ especially because it apparently recommends blogs that you've gone out of your way to ignore.

Related to that recent post you made, it took orcs 2 weeks to travel from one end of the Barrens to the other in one of the official Warcraft books. I like to think that Azeroth, including the cities and towns, are much much bigger than portrayed in-game.

Oh yeah, for sure. With the distance between Northrend and Tirisfal in game, Arthas' soldiers could have probably gotten home after he burned their ships just by building rafts out of the wreckage. So you have to suspend a little disbelief and just imagine it's bigger than it looks. The distance and scope of the planet is probably just a little smaller than earth, but obviously something like that in an MMO is completely impossible even at this point (and moreso in 2004). Crossing Moonglade would be like crossing the entirety of Skyrim and nobody would get anything done ever. Doesn't help that RPers (myself included) tend to handwave a lot of travel because if your plot starts in Stormwind and ends in Valiance Keep, you really don't want your character to be locked down on a boat for three real-world months. It might be fun to explore the story of a long trip every once in a while, but not every time-- sometimes you just want your story to progress.

But yeah I think there are a lot of settlements missing (not including the ones we know that are missing *coughKulTirascough*), so making up a random background town for your character to have come from is a pretty good idea.

(I remember being used to playing games where "towns" consisted of a few NPC houses, an inn for saving, a market, and maybe a big temple/castle/whatever where you establish your next plot point. So when I first encountered Warcraft's cities I was overwhelmed by how big and immersive they felt-- they had streets! And quarters! And dozens of shops! It was magical. But... they would still count as very large villages for the time it takes to /walk across them, haha.)
