Garona Halforcen Wallpaper

Posted 4th Feb 2009 12:15 PM by Maticus

Blizzard have posted another awesome wallpaper from the Wildstorm comic series. This time it's half-Orc half-Daenei Garona Halforcen.

She's come back into the spotlight again recently after it was revealed that she is indeed half Draenei and not half human as it was written in the Warcraft book 'The Last Guardian'. To complicate things further, it emerged she gave birth to a half-human baby boy not long after assassinating the human King Llane Wrynn. She named the boy Me'dah (a nod to the boy's father perhaps - Medivh?) and passed him onto an ancient undead mage named Meryl. This boy, now a young man, is prophesied to the be saviour of Azeroth. Read more about all these events here.

The poor boys 1/4 Orc, 1/2 Human, 1/4 Dranei.

Im surpirsed they didnt add his great great grandfather was a Taunka and Hi great grandmother was Nozdormu from the future pretending to be female.

Total lore butchery.

Well not completely, iirc, the Last Guardian said something like that she was half Orcish and half of the Draenor equivalent to humans.

Ability to become a Mage? Check
Ability to become a Priest? Check
Ability to become a Paladin? Check.
Ability to become a Warrior? Check.

Rogue fails granted, Warlock, well that would only apply to the Corrupted Eredar. All in all fairly close to humans in that sense. (Have to remember that Dwarves and Blood Elves being able to become Paladins is a fairly recent occurrence over all, least when compared to Humans. The Draenei on the other hand have a fairly long tradition of having bubble boys as well.)

Now granted, Draenei look drastically different from humans, then again, Medivh wasn’t quite himself at the time, so some misdirection on his part isn’t that surprising.

As for the kid being half human, eh, if Khadgar is his old man, then it’s not that big of a surprise really. They way the interactions between Khadgar and Garona were written, I half expected a six page porn scene or something to occur at any moment. raspberry

Now you want to talk things out of left field, then Matthias Lehner would fit that role better.

It definetley says human, it says in the lore she was born from captives taken by orc raiding parties through the Dark Portal.

It looks like the captives story has been retcon’d.
