Might as well transfer my Kar'cozhan (Or Karkoran) master post here. I dabble in egregious homebrew for Warcraft. I took your great dark beyond and put slugs in it.

We could've just had dark trolls... Without any of this weird beautification. It was giving me the ick and now it's just yucky!
mclowes.bsky.social
Or at least have just gone the drogbar thing where they're something else entirely. Or just... not have been a thing- because the shadowlands "Look it's this thing from before but more conventionally beautiful so it's better" route is not something I wanted to see again.

There didn't need to be another "See how devolved and hideous trolls are, we're better than you" type. but by golly, apparently we're getting another one!!!!!!!

I saw it coming, the design was really telling, but oh my GOD.
mclowes.bsky.social
I know it's 'too' early to tell, but this is pretty telling. Oh GOD I HATE IT.
mclowes.bsky.social
I knew that's what people were gonna do with them, but to have it be canon iuhsiuthgiuh!!!
mclowes.bsky.social
Oh no, they really are just "trolls for people who think trolls are too ugly"
mclowes.bsky.social
They're everything I feared they were gonna be.
mclowes.bsky.social
Oh. I don't like them anymore.

"Trollkind"

Oh... oh no. No, no, no.
mclowes.bsky.social
Thrall's Balls! They were trolls the whole time!!!!

Don't be silly!

NOW it's an orc

It's why he doesn't really bother much when people find out he's a bloodsucker. At that point, they already know too much about him and that's way too personal, like!
mclowes.bsky.social
We gotta have our sluice pipes! That's where we keep our best sluice-juices!
mclowes.bsky.social
That's what he says all the time! He still gets lumped together with the elves!

He doesn't even particularly like being called a vampyr either, but he's gotta settle with something, or this problem's gonna keep cropping up!
mclowes.bsky.social
There's no pipes?! This needs to be fixed! How am I supposed to run ridiculous pipe puzzle RP events without my TUBES?!!!
mclowes.bsky.social
Oh! That's because I fixed his nose here! It was really flat against his face before which broke the angle! <3

You will have your meat shop! I am dedicated to helping my friends realise their housing dreams!

(living vicariously through my pals' personal projects because I got none of my own!)
mclowes.bsky.social
It's also possible that a lot of those meat related assets are lumped together with other items and aren't being labled as such as a result! I swear I've seen things like dinosaur legs and meat hooks in older screenshots!

(He hates being called a 'San'layn, but not for any particular reason beyond 'It's a bit fancy, ain't it?)

Interviewing San'layn about what they miss most:

Prince Ra'zel the Redeemed: "The warm embrace in a lover's arms"

Blood Matyr Sanguinella: "The hunger for magic was far less intense... I almost miss it!"

Gazrik: "... Lobster Rolls."
mclowes.bsky.social
Okay NOW I can start colouring you. Good lord, how did I think that nose was remotely acceptable????

Praise be to he!

Kevin, the Wickmaster!!!
mclowes.bsky.social
I'm taking my powers as an egregious homebrewer to decide once and for all!!!

The first Kevin was a kobold.

Goblin origin is a total mystery! Gnomes, humans and dwarves descend from titan constructs!

Goblin lore is very decidedly vague and gets changed around a lot when it is out there!
