Omar the Test Dragon

Once upon a time I had a Carrot on a Stick. Then I copied my shaman to the Wrath beta server. To my surprise, when I logged onto the beta realm for the first time, waiting for me at the mailbox was the curious message above. Now, we've covered the riding enchantment ground already (that is, it may not ever go live), but what I want to talk about on this post is my new buddy, Omar the Test Dragon.
I think I have a crush on him. I wonder what he looks like. I expect Omar looks like a cross between Mr. T. and Justin Timberlake -- ohhh, dreamy! Is he a Troll, a Goblin, or is he really a member of the Dragonflight? How wonderful that would be! Nighttime flights above Netherstorm or setting fire to ogres in Stonemaul. How romantic! But if Omar really is a dragonIflight, he speaks differently than I expected. His language style is utterly intoxicating. I mean, his use of exclamation marks alone is enough to give a girl the dizzies. Maybe that's why he doesn't reply to my emails -- perhaps there is a language barrier between us? O, my dear Omar, if you can hear the sound of my voice, I have but one message for you. I am no dawg, just a simple bovine from Mulgore. Peace out.

Arrested Development mention FTW.

Would it be crass to say he's probably from the black dragonflight?

Wow, the development team really pushing the limits with those lines. haha
Good to see they always got a good sense of humor though

Good. Less fiddly space-wasting trinkets to deal with.
Also, want to see an Omar rap music video on YouTube.

So... What did you get in return, aside from a copy of this mail?
Jay Sep 12th 2008 11:42AM
Omar is a whelp.
Candina@WH Sep 12th 2008 12:05PM
A black dragon whelp.
With a mohawk. Voiced by Eddie Murphy, al la Donkey in Shrek.
It is just me, or would this be cool and funny as hell.

Nah, I was thinking Chris Ward IV, aka Mc Chris, aka MC Pee Pants... :D

Think Omar ever hangs out with Captain Placeholder?
*knows the name won't stay, but so wishes it would*

So, ummm, what the hell was in the email?
I'm more interested in the substance than the complete stupidity of Omar's english.

Omar will be punched in his face, if he will take away my Skybreaker whip! He can take my Riding Crop... but Skybreaker whip! NEVER!

Obviously they are knocking those lines off the show Pimp My Ride
Kaylek Sep 12th 2008 12:47PM
Because, obviously, Pimp My Ride is the only source from which ride pimping is discussed in that dialect.
What?

when the haircuts go live, expect to get this sort of mail on a regular basis from night elf mohawks.
Keyra Sep 12th 2008 4:21PM
Night Elf Mohawks I can live with...but I suddenly have nightmarish images of gnomes with mohawks and gold jewelry riding mechanical striders with spinners...::shudder::

Yeah, Omar is a Netherwing Whelp (or at least looks like one). So he probably needs his mommy's permission to correspond with people. ;-P

I got my carrot on stick with that mail, but, I couldn't "enchant" my mount D:.
What's funny is, I threw away my carrot on a stick long time ago, and still got it back.
