I was referring to calling it The Fel, which I can't recall it ever being used up until at least Burning Crusade. The only WC source I've ever seen use that term is the movie, which was an abomination.
Well that is quite silly since demonic magic has been Fel since warcraft three (red orcs directly imbued with demonic blood being fel orcs, demons being named felguard, felhunter etc.)
(but it was red then since the "normal" uncorrupted orc skin was green and not brown until burning crusade so you are partially right in that fel became known as the green energy we now use it as in BC)
The only reason it was in wc3 is because before that all magic was just magic no matter if it was orcish or human, they simply refer to Gul'dans spellcasting as "vile magiks" and rituals.
And that is just from the top of my head, i can probably dig up legion related quests from vanilla wow where they mention fel energies as such if you want to.
There are several related to cleansing areas of demon influence (ashenvale around where Mannoroth fell, decolace where the burning blade made their stronghold, felwood (again with fel), Teldrassil being defiled, etc).

Fel just means bad. Felgaurd, Fel Orcs, fine. But referring to demonic power as "The Fel", not "fel magic", not "fel power", not "fel energies", but "The Fel." Capital T, capital F, The Fel.
It's different. Anyway, I was mostly trying to make a tongue in cheek half-joke. The movie cut out the Burning Legion entirely man

No one ever used a capital F or T tho.Fel just means bad. Felgaurd, Fel Orcs, fine. But referring to demonic power as "The Fel", not "fel magic", not "fel power", not "fel energies", but "The Fel." Capital T, capital F, The Fel.

I wrote corrupted by fel energies, which by your "fel just means bad" still means "corrupted by evil energies" e.g demonic power.
The same principle works for old god corruption, flesh-change from earthen to dwarf, magic abstinence for elf>wretched/fallen and whatever else might come up.
ALL THE OLD BLOG UPDATES NOW ALSO ON THREAD!

They look quite promising, I love the Kaldorei ones. Although, if I may make a suggestion, I believe Quel'dorei ears stand more upright and perchance for the sake of variety you could play around with it? Aside that, I'm -really- looking forward to being able to play and seeing all the artwork in the game. Will the Troll one get a bit more polished?
The high and blood elf children share the troll and night elf ears cuz it made my life easier to just use the same portrait in different colors
And hopefully all portraits will be refined more, atm none of the childrens skin tones match the adults etc.
IIRC it was either £8 or £10, so $12-15 I think. Pretty good, I felt, since the WoW month is at least £5 by itself.
As for all the portraits and the mod, it's looking great. I wish I had the time and know-how to contribute, but sadly my CK2 modding skills are somewhat limited.
I literally saw this project, learned to mod and talked to BlackDragon. Took me most of a single day and bam, here I am. Modding CK2 is occasionally infuriating, but otherwise easy. A lot of people seem to think it involves programming, but it doesn't. It's just text files.
Can you press ctrl and c at the same time?
Can you press ctrl and v at the same time?
Welcome to modding.

Welcome to modding.
CK2's text file system is certainly much easier to understand, and I imagine much easier to modify, but unfortunately I've got a lot of stuff competing for my time
If music is still needed, though, I might be able to help; I'm pretty sure I already know how to add/change music (just some .oggs and a simple wee bit of text I think), so I could probably put some stuff together whether actual music from Warcraft or (should that not count as fair use, I don't really know what threshold you have to reach before the lawyers come for you) some stuff that seems fitting.

Understandable, they do actually share the same heritage so in theory it makes sense. In truth, they're not all that different in the end.
I'm content with how they are now and you can always revisit and polish them if need-be later, for now I'm simply looking forward to playing!
Draenei Characters
Im starting to worry that i have learned so much while doing X races that when i get to Orc females (first female set i will do after all major Male sets are done(not because of sexism, more that the males are far more important in history and as thus a higher priority) they will far outdo the orc males in quality (the first ever portrait set i did)....

By the Naaru! Those male Draenei look quite impressive, they look really well! The variety in horns and hair already add a lot.
As for the Wildhammer facepaint, it's -okay-. It's not all too good but it's not bad either. It's a nice little extra which by you can recognize Wildhammers.
Its mostly just there to distinguish between the wildhammer and bronzebeard dwarves before and during the war of the three hammers.
I like about half of the facepaints, all that have lines across the nose should have a wider strip of paint but the problem is that i cant make it wider without ruining others T.T
These are some of the ones not shown and two that was shown but where the beard or hair covered the mouth and head parts making them look the same.
pure blue half face is just pure braveheart kek while all others are taken from woad clan painting patterns.
Is the purple just placeholder texture? Because otherwise they look more like Twilight's Hammer than Wildhammer
It mostly just looks purple because its a half transparent layer of blue on beige which makes it more purple than dark blue, will edit that so its pure blue sometime... probably.
The designs are pretty much 100% ripped off from a google series of woad historical facepaint.
The wow wildhammer either have a stripe across the eyes (which i cant do because of shifting eye positions and size so i went for the second best thing) or back of the skull + woad arm torcs (but those aint visible here >.>)
Im caught between a rock of not being able to see which dwarves are bronzebeard and which are wildhammer at a glance and the fact that there is very little example shown and little skin to work with.
I did what i could >.>
