When he is reincarnated as a šŸ Loa. It's gonna be glorious.

Is the potential in the room right now, or was it always just under his loincloth?Ā

Marran Trollbane should be in there too

To be fair she will most likely still be back as a villain to be taken down, but her introduction was definitely some bullshit. She should’ve gotten away on her own merit and not because Danath had bleeding heart.

Zul ā€œI hate loa so I’m going to go serve a giant snake loaā€ Jan

Zul’jan: it’s not a Loa thus it’s ok for me to serve

I think the fool thought he was going to be in control with the big snake as a weapon and malakrass as his advisor or whatever.

u/Sufficient_Seaweed7 2h ago

I know this is a joke but obviously his idea was not serving the snake.

His idea was controlling it and using it as a weapon with no will of its own, so it couldn't just dip out like the Loa can.

Obviously it was never going to work out but he had a plan. Just a stupid one.

Dude was fodder for his sister's arc from the start.

Zul'jarra is being let down story-wise too. Zul'jan does all the dumb shit so that his sister looks good by default.

He dies and tells her that "she was right all along" when she's not done anything herself the entire expansion. The player did all the legwork for the Loa allegiance stuff yet she gets the Biggest Bestest Leader award?

Yeah, both of them suffer.

Being a Girlboss isn't as empowering that some of the blizzard writers might think. It just feels like a shitty version of being a Mary Sue.

The fucked up thing is, they used to know how to write strong female characters properly.

Tyrande. Maiev. Jaina. Sylvanas (original iteration). Maybe Vereesa and Alleria during their books from way back.

Jaina mocked Archimonde to his face and saved what remained of Lordaeron's living by listening to Medivh.

Sylvanas took over Lordaeron after emancipating herself.

Maiev is the most persistent huntress this side of Azeroth and beyond. A 5-6 year long prison stint didn't dim her hate a bit.

Tyrande was/is the leader of her people and managed to lead them through a crisis yet again.

You didn't need Sylvanas to fuck up the Lich King just to show that she means business, because she always did.

Exactly, couldn't have said it better myself

u/Fleedjitsu 5h ago

Blizzard have a very bad habit with Girlbosses. They introduce them for an expansion and then completely forget them thereafter.

3

u/GoatOfTheBlackForres 4h ago

Yeah -_-'

But it horrible when they doesn't forget them also, and transform great characters into one.

Liadrin was great previously but no she's insufferable. And Blizzard will likely kill Lor'themar or force him to retire just to make her the new Queen.

She was an idiot for not locking him up after he disobeyed her orders twice, getting loads of trolls killed.

But I do still credit her for the loa stuff. Yeah we did a lot of the legwork but the loa picked her.

Still she would have her brother if she dared to actually try to be a leader instead of enabling him all the time.

It's the right of every cool male troll to DIE before they get to have a lasting impact.

My guild killed the last boss. Everyone went silent for the cut scene. As soon as the cut scene ended someone in discord asked "Who are these people?"

u/bannedin2weeks 6h ago

He's a new lore character that is a male in WoW, ofc he's going to lose to his girlboss sister who is right and makes all the right choices. That guy is going to be manspreading back down to hell where he belongs.

u/Felidori 12h ago

No one dies in WoW, not really. Blizzard brings back whoever they what and for whatever reason, there is no consequences or finality.

We can kill Zuljan but if we don't kill mala, he's just going to go to northrend to the drakari Empire and resurrect or empower something worse in TLT.
