*disclaimer: This is a post for fun, it is in no way meant to be taken seriously. I have thoroughly combed the lore before making this post and is just a “what if” scenario just for shits and giggles and is meant to be taken with a grain of salt.*
Race: Dark Trolls
Faction: Alliance
Languages: Zandali, Common
Summary: Long ago a tribe of Trolls would settle on the shores of the well of eternity. These Trolls would live in caverns throughout the day, only emerging at night turning them into a new subspecies: the Dark Troll. Dark Trolls were the ancestors of the Night Elves and like their more derived kin sought balance with nature, even ceasing worship of the Loa in favor of the goddess Elune. However after the events of the Third War in which they banded with the Night Elves to defeat the Burning Legion, they were wiped out by the Twilight’s Hammer leaving only a few lonely individuals to live out their remaining days.
or so it was thought...
Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, when threatened the Dark Trolls retreated even deeper into their caves and became even more secretive, only emerging when need be or on certain nights of the year to continue worshiping Elune and perform sacred rights in reverence to her. However when Tyrande took on the mantle of Night Warrior the Dark Trolls could sense it and after much deliberation they emerged to unite with their Night Elf kin and fight in Elune’s name against the Horde.

So why do Night Elves not have Shamans? I mean if they’re descended from the Dark Trolls and Trolls have Shamans, shouldn’t they have shamans still too?
