Skoll Shorties

Characters like Xavius, Azshara, Lei-Shen, Kil'jaeden (If No Longer a Demon), Gul'dan, Arthas, Ner'zhul. Characters with no redeeming qualities whatsoever, have immense power, and can meddle with the Shadowlands to some degree.

Sorry to jump on a post but SOME of these have slight redeeming qualities - Azshara was all for power so I'd be surprised if she didn't end up in Revendrath she's like the humanification of pride. if there's even a bit of pre-Frostmourne Arthas left there'd be hope-

-which could be the case considering the Icecrown Citadel final cinematic. I got the same feeling from the final cinematic for the Tomb of Sargeras with Kil'jaedan, in that he did what he did for power, thinking it the best route, but seeing his reaction to Velen's goodbye? Oof

Like I don't expect any of these characters to get any kind of redemption and I'm not saying they deserve it either but it could be interesting if these small glimmers could lead to something.

Don't give in to conventional wisdom. Stand your ground and make your case. I for one believe that Sylvanas' soul deserved to be saved (not necessarily her body.) No one short of Steve Danuser will convince me otherwise. The quality of mercy is not strained - spread the love.

I've always usually felt naive at the quality of mercy but it's a nice change to hear someone encourage that! Sylvannas pre-Cata definitely, but obviously the death she threw herself to (which is still??? really tragic like wtf) corrupted her. Still interested to see where we go

I believe that Sylvanas was corrupted the day she died at Silvermoon. Arthas tortured her, killed her then raised her as a Banshee. One day she's Ranger-General of her city. The next she's a monster. The Banshee queen has done thing the Ranger-general would never dream of doing.

The Banshee Queen still did a lot of good. Help the Blood Elves, care for the forsaken, help in the battles against Arthas. Just in the BFA developers tried to portray it as negatively as possible.
