Hey, there really IS a True Queen of the Draenei!

Before I launch into the subject of this post, here's some fun I ran across in Dalaran:



Because Lurky figured out how to do this.  So proud of myself...

Anyway, here's Solinii.



There's one big glaring problem with this, and that is that you have a queen draenei.  Draenei don't do monarchy, not on Draenor and definitely not on Azeroth.  But that's okay, because Misthalin isn't on Azeroth either!

That's the one major reason I can't take this person seriously.  She claims to be a beginner, so I won't light into her, but someone needs to tell her that if you want to play Runescape, play Runescape; if you want to play draenei, play WoW.

Also, there's a limit on how much "yet not I but the Light in me" you can get away with.  "I'm not particularly physically strong, but the Light empowers me in battle" is fine, because that's actually how paladins tend to work out in combat; but IMO, "there's no farking way I would otherwise be able to wear plate armor" is not.

Finally, a "calling" is not something you choose; it's something that chooses you.  That's why it's referred to as a "calling".  I know that's nitpicky, but English is losing its nuance, and that's because people don't know the finely-graded differences between similar words.

funny story, crossover, flagrsp, moon guard is made of fail, draenei, lore-crushing, satire, noble, underweight
