I'm curious to see how they deal with that in the game's lore, if at all.Д®ye color has been such an oddly important distinguishing feature for the elves of Quel'thalas. In BFA, Blood Elves will get some new face options that change their eyes to gold, rather than green. Now, I imagine Lightforging a person is way more intense than the kind of gradual exposure the Blood Elves get from the Sunwell, but I wonder if, after so many years, that's starting to have an effect on the population. the Light when X'era tries to forcibly Lightforge him. Indeed, we start to see Illidan's arcane tattoos light up with. We know that the Lightforged (mostly Draenei but also Turalyon) get golden eyes after getting saturated with holy magic. At the end of Burning Crusade, Velen uses the remains of M'uru to spark the reignition of the Sunwell into a font of not just arcane, but also holy magic. Now, of course, this whole problem with the Sunwell is actually a long-solved problem. There's actually a bit of an interesting conundrum in the lore here - it's not clear why the very few remaining High Elves (which, other than this, is primarily a political designation rather than a physiological one) have not become Wretched - some clearly have, but Vereesa and her Silver Covenant seem fine. It was when Kael'thas allied with Illidan, and the Betrayer taught the Sin'dorei to siphon off demonic fel magic to sate their magic addition that you started to see green-eyed Blood Elves. When the Sunwell was destroyed and Kael'thas renamed his people the Blood Elves, that didn't change.

The High Elves have had blue eyes, perhaps linked to their use of arcane magic through the Sunwell. Also, all male Night Elf characters (save Death Knights and Demon Hunters) have golden eyes, and we can't all be special.ДЇor the inhabitants of Quel'thalas, eye color is actually a pretty clear code. Granted, that could be coincidence, like the fact that a ton of US Presidents have been left-handed (assuming there's not some secret society called 'Manus Sinister' that's puppeteering all of us, that is! (satire)) after all, Malfurion and Tyrande didn't have gold eyes, and they've both achieved quite a bit. Night Elves have a tradition that an elf born with golden eyes has a great destiny ahead of them.

The truth is that in the Warcraft universe, eye color has real significance, and particularly for elves.
