CLOSED [H-A] Orc and Draenei

Might as well give this a shot!
Here's the deal. I play an orc shaman by the name of Ulah who has lived a substantial amount of years, and is now dying. Ulah lived before the orcs became corrupted, and was thus not on unfriendly terms with the draenei in her youth. As part of her story, she is of the Whiteclaw clan, I planned out that through some series of events, she got infatuated with a male draenei. He was taken with her in turn, in that true Harlequin-spirit that ties us all together, and they even produced two children. I suppose such pairings might have been frowned upon even then (truth be told, I am not certain), but I do at least know that half-bloods of that kind is not unheard of. Weird as it may be.

The war claimed the entire family, save for Ulah, who fought a brief and fruitless battle to claim the innocense of the draenei. Her clan was wiped out due to their unwillingness to embrace the new order amongst the orcs, but - again - Ulah survived.

If we move to current times, Ulah is still drawing breath, and has retained her position as a shaman of power and wisdom. But alas, she is soon ready to die. Why I'm writing this, is because I was toying with the thought of having some actual draenei players that know Ulah, or knew her mate, and that might possibly be able and wanting to attend the funeral pyre of said orc.

Safe to say, the latter would take some arranging to do. But as for the former, I suppose it might just be something to add to anyone's story, or give the opportunity for some cross-factional ideas. I know it might seem a bit too much like "make peace, not war" kind of crap for most people, but I just figured that it might be a window of opportunity for something interesting.

So, if you have an interest in knowing Ulah, or her deceased family, and wish to have had contact with her then - or even in the present - then give me a poke here on the forums.

<_< For some reason, I feel a bit dirty now.
Thanks for reading!

Saali might've known this draenei, and wouldn't be above honoring his mate

I love it when you feel dirty <3

On a serious note, might be due to my lack of coffee, but it sounds perfectly plausible. (was that the one I summoned in Feralas btw?)

There is one alive in Nagrand! A blademaster at that!
And Mandui (I think? <_<) Explained with good reasoning why Orcs and Draenei can have pups!

But I must ask, does a Draenei call it mate or lover or wife?
I know Ulah would call her draenei mate.

Thank you so much for your replies. I will leave the topic open for a few days longer, to see if there are more interested.

Special thanks to you, Saali. I'll PM you here or try to poke you in-game.

My Draenei Vryndir, could be of assistance too. He's lived for donkeys years and has come across many of both Orc and Draenei on Draenor.

Poke away
I'm usually on Saali or Sadirah, or Acanthe on the horde side.

Very nice idea. Some cross-faction RP! *cheer*

Ariyuni would probably not have known any of the family, unless they had a tendency to hang out in libraries and churches. *grin* I can still attend the event out of respect, though, if permitted.

Also, I have no idea what Draenei call their other half. O.o Hmmm. Hmmmmmmmmm.

"Customer".

*takes out the rubber ball*

Come here boy...

Thanks to Saali who showed, and made the event even more enjoyable!

*Saali gulps at the approaching doom*

The following is Saali's small speech at the burial:

*Saali steps hesitantly forward*

"I am here to honor the time your friend spent amongst my people. I know that many of you finds my presence an afront, but let the life she lived be an inspiration for the future.

I do not know how she lived or died, but it is my hope that her ancestors are now greeting her as their equals"


*Saali steps up on a nearby hill after the ritual finishes, and sings a warrior's dirge to the dead*

A noble death has set forth the warrior
She no longer walks amongst us
With sorrowful hearts we offer her up,
May our kindsmen grant you
A noble life anew.

That was very nice indeed! I'll link the little verse to the OotRB forums so they can know as well. In any case, lots of thanks for showing up! Hope whatever few bruises that nasty fire elemental gave were worth the effort. *Snicker* Perhaps orcses and draenei will meet again in the future!

I had hoped that the elemental had an aggro range of less than 20 yards *whines*

Ah well, nothing like Benny Hillesque slapstick comedy
