Link Versus Paladin (Warcraft)

Started by Q'Anilia7 pages

Orcs has been mentioned when talking about humanity in Warcraft. Link having been mentioned as human could be something like that.

Hes biologically a human child, the fact hes a Hylian makes little difference as theres few physical differences.

You kinda failed to get the point here. 5L was correcting me, not questioning you.

Who said I was talking to either of you specifically? I just pointed that out while you were on the topic of hylians/humans.

So what you are saying, is that he is technically biologically an elven child?

It's exactly like that.

There's a cutscene in OoT which specificly reveals Link is a Hylian, rather than a Kokiri.

Nah 5L, human is a relative term, they call themselves human the same way we do, because they're also speaking English. They're explicitly Hylians, though. Human is a broad term to describe any of the humanoid races, such as Twili, Zora, Goron, or Hylian =P

Well, you are right and wrong. Yes, human is relative for any Hylians or other human races (Shad, Telma, Gerudo), but Zoras and Gorons are the ones making the "human" comments and are therefore distinctly separating themselves from the "human" classification.

Eh, stfu. Twili are still human, for example. Goron's refer to Hylians as humans, but they're like.. giant living rocks, so yeah. And Zora's are fish people.

So I was half wrong. Almost. Meh. Link still = Hylian.

You're still a winner in my book. 👆

Did you know that while the humans in Warcraft speak English, their language is actually called Common and not English?

Thats probably because the "English" do not exist in Azeroth as a nation.

That's cool. Gorons and Zoras have their own separate language from Hyrule's/Termina's. I believe there is a part in MM where you are unable to read goron or zora writing unless you turn into one and take on the traits of the mask (reading apparently being one of them). But, this is Termina, so 😛

Cub won an internet? What madness is this?

Believe me, her post was made of massive win.

Cub is a girl?

More likely it's a throwback to tabletop Dungeons & Dragons. The "universal" language is called Common instead of English, and most races can speak it.
