Petitioning for a new WoW specific verb.

Hi! So I keep hearing about this city in WoW that just got obliterated... I think it’s called.. what was it?? “Theramore”??? /sarcasm Yeah I’ve heard the super fucking tragic story that is Theramore and how deeply obliterated it got.. SO. I’m starting a habit of referring to that tragedy every time Blizzard obliterates a beloved character! I encourage others to adopt it too if you enjoy the idea. It’s a funny little bit of Schadenfreude that maybe Blizzard might take notice of and understand what they’ve done. :)   ((REALLY HIGH HOPES I KNOW.)) For example, Yrel! Yrel we get to meet in Draenor. She’s super sweet and works diligently to learn how to cooperate and live with the orcs. Big character development and just awesome.... Only to be brought back as a mindless antagonist serving “The Light” just so the Maghar join the horde. Completely Theramored her and all she learned. And for a more prevalent character... my dearest, most beloved.. Wrathion. Oh sweet bean... He was so genuinely matured in Visions of N’zoth, and he truly did understand. Only to be brought back in Dragonflight with a personality more insufferable than he was in Pandaria. Not only that, but his ambition of leading the flight being taken away from him and given to someone else who really doesn’t deserve it.. hell... never even had the desire to lead in the first place. They ABSOLUTELY theramored him. :(

The first thing she noticed was the tower—or rather, where it had once been. Gone was the beautiful white stone building that had housed her extensive library and her cozy parlor. In its place was a smoking crater, horrifically reminiscent of the one that yet lingered in Hillsbrad Foothills. Except that gash in the earth had been made by a city departing for war, while this one had been made by Rhonin’s desperate attempt to avert disaster, an attempt that had been bought with his life.

I feel like they haven't explored the intermingling of night elves and Gilneans enough. Not that we haven't seen it at all; we've seen worgen in the Sentinels, Talonbranch Glade, and the assistance in Darkshore. However, I CRAVE MORE. There has to have been some interesting results of the the relationship between the two over the years and I would love to see it.

Hell, toss in the Draenei and remnants of Theramore too (Jaina sent civilians away by boat before the siege, there's probably a ton of them just out in the world) for a little more fun. They're neighbors but tend to be kept so separate.

Can you briefly tell about Jaina and her attitude towards the horde/Garrosh during MoP-WoD?

I will try to be as brief as possible😁

Jaina hates both the horde and Garrosh, but separates and does not put them on the same level of evil. Before the sunreavers' betrayal, she was a little more positive about restoring relations, but after that she was very negative. At first, it was enough for her if Thrall led the horde after Garrosh, but then she would prefer to dismantle the horde (She asserted that the Horde should no longer self-govern. Jaina doesn't trust the Horde to self-govern).

At the trial, Tyrande asks her if she would have become like the horde if she had washed away Orgrimmar, to which Jaina replies "the horde isn't Garrosh." However, she did not forgive the horde and did not forget that the horde destroyed Theramore, but for the sake of Kalecgos, she let go of the desire for revenge when Vol'jin sent a letter (in which he says that he understands why Jaina will no longer stand for peace). The horde is bad, but with normal warchief she is able tolerate it,

In WoD she helped both the horde and alliance player with the ring. . Ofc, she was not nice, and hordies were mad at her.

Summing up: you need to carefully read the quests and extremely hard-boiled books to understand that Jaina sepatates the guilt of the horde and the guilt of Garrosh, but even after his "punishment" she is not ready to collect flowers with the horde from the same field. She blames both but on different levels. Jaina is ready to cooperate with the horde until they betray the alliance again.

a few quotes from the books and quests:

“Your people are despicable cowards,” she hissed. “You are nothing more than rabid dogs, and you should be put down. You spit on mercy? Then you will have none. You want carnage? Garrosh will get more blood than ever he bargained for.” - tow.

“You do not know my heart anymore, Thrall,” she said. “I am no butcher—but I will no longer call for peace at any cost. The Horde you do not lead is dangerous and must be challenged at every turn—and defeated. Then, perhaps, there can be peace. But not before.” - tow.

“What if the Horde killed your friends? Your family? Destroyed everything your had. Could you maintain your conviction even then? To be honest, I struggle. Every. Day. You seem to understand my struggle. Every day, the hard decisions. Every night… the nightmares. But I have a responsibility to preserve the Kirin Tor.” + i wrestle with my anger - destiny of Dalaran.

For too long, I have toiled to mend fences between Alliance and Horde. Time and time again, I've given the Horde the benefit of the doubt - and time and time again, they stab me in the back. I refuse to be betrayed again! If the Horde intends to use the Kirin Tor as a weapon against the Alliance, then they have no place in Dalaran. - Jaina's Resolution.

Jaina's gone over the edge. She's imprisoning the sunreavers and attacking those who resist. - Rommath.

He knew that the betrayal of the Sunreavers in Dalaran—her new city, her new Theramore—had cut deeply. Many said it had catapulted her right back to where she was emotionally after Theramore fell, and there had been rumors that she had pushed Varian to actually dismantle the Horde. Jaina did not answer immediately. She gave the question the consideration it was due. “Of course, I wasrelieved to hear that I hadn’t inadvertently wiped out the fleet. But no—that wasn’t why I was glad.” Shelooked at Garrosh, and there her gaze remained. “I am glad I refrained, because I would never, ever wantto be like him.” [...]The Accuser would henceforth be confined to follow-up questioning, and it was clear she wanted to end on a strong note. And so, she asked one question toomany. “Or like the Horde?” Jaina went very still. Tyrande waited. After a moment, she prompted, “Lady Jaina? My question was, doyou wish to never, ever be like the Horde?” And Jaina—battered, angry, wounded, devastated, honest Jaina—replied simply, “The Horde isn’t Garrosh.”  - twc.

Jaina is wary of working once more with the Horde after they betrayed the Kirin-Tor. But that war is over. We share a common enemy once more... - Touch of the Kirin-Tor.

Part 30 of my World of Warcraft retail paladin playthrough! In this episode I begin questing in Dustwallow Marsh. I begin by sabotaging the deserter's propaganda. I then swim out to he lighthouse to help out a gnome, I then go and kill some turtles and crabs.

After out encounter with King Ymiron in Utgarde Pinnacle, Ula opened a portal to Theramore which, among other things, is the center of nostalgia in Azeroth. He’s talking about vanilla WoW Why Theramore, aside from the ability to make the joke above? Well, Theramore is a town on the edge of the Dustwallow Marsh, the location of one of my “things to do” items for Wrath Classic. I am talking about…

sithvanas. jedaina. is that anything

[jujoobedoodling]

Have you heard I Know Those Eyes / This Man Is Dead song from the Count of Monte Cristo musical?

Is it just me or does it fit all those AUs where Jaina and Sylvanas dated before Third War and then met later, after Sylvanas became the Banshee Queen?

oh shit i just went to listen to it and look at the lyrics - DAMN that's pretty good and i had to get this out of my system

ty for the hookup, this is one of my fave scenarios for this ship

[ishouldgay]

You know I don’t really bother posting about how awful I find the World of Warcraft writing because everyone already knows but the fact that they’ve never had Sylvanas and Jaina interact is just insane to me. Like if I had two characters with that many parallels between the two of them I know I’d have them speak to each other. 

Like. The fact they never even mention each other at any point ??? Nothing from Jaina about how her ex boyfriend killed Sylvanas and she feels bad about it ??? Nothing from Sylvanas about how Jaina had a chance to stop said boyfriend but simply walked away?? Nothing about how there was a time where the pair of them were ruling the spilt remains of Lordaeron ??? No, Nothing ?????

I love doing that little quest when Khadgar calls the council to tell them they will be working with the Horde against the Legion because

Khadgar waiting for you outside and behind the Violet Citadel like a nervous kid because he knows what is about to happen when he steps inside.

He is nice enough to let you know that this will be Bad and he knows ahead of time it will suck for you.

Jaina full caps "NEVER" followed by calling you vermin to your face (ouch)

Khadgar having none of it and pushing the vote anyway, aggressively

You having to deal with Ansirem who is still around and voted "Nay" to your face like okay we are all pretending this didn't happen
