Around Azeroth: A horse is not a horse
Now that we have vampire, werewolf and zombie chic in popular culture, who can doubt that centaurs will be far behind? (Or dryads, or nymphs, or whatever.) Zephyrine of <Press Any Key> on Xavius (EU-A) took this screenshot in Stars' Rest, entranced by the beauty of this wintery habitat. This lady-type person might be a frost nymph, but if she doesn't put on some more appropriate clothing, she's going to become a frostbite sufferer.
Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see them on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as emailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word "Azeroth" in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use Alt Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, Val'kyr on mounts or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran. Older screenshots can be found here.

Wait what? I finally found an AA post ahead of it's scheduled post time again, woo :P
Wasn't centaur "the" furry thing sometime during the 90s? Also, about a year ago, I stumbled upon a website full of centaur photoshops. It's only a matter of time until the youth (luckily I'm eligible to not count myself under that header anymore) picks up this trend again...

As a friend of mine once said; "Centaurs - what's not to love about a beautiful woman, with a big ass, who never wears pants?"

I think I'd prefer a small human ass over a large hairy one :P

I still say centaurs would be a cool playable race, but the most obvious racial for them would be increased speed, which would probably be pretty broken in pvp.

Not to mention huge problems in animation and shape. Surprising enough that they're letting Worgen stealth around on 4 paws.

Look at my Nymph, My Nymph is Amazing. Give it a lick, "Mmm it tastes just like Frostbite." With a stroke of it's hair it turns into a Flying Machine and it turns back again when you tug on it's...Dang this is harder then it looks...

Honest to God.. when I was younger.. I dated this older woman. She lived way out in the country and I would drive 100 miles to go see her almost every night.
What ended it? She actually thought centaurs were a result of.. well.. you know. In fact she said she heard this from the church she grew up in.
I ran.

A white horse is not a horse.

I play on a pvp server, and stars rest is absolutely the most impenetrable fortress in the game for the alliance. An open (no wall) mini quest hub is an absolute wall of thorns. If you are alliance and you are inside, you are perfectly safe. No one can get near you.
Agmar's Hammer on the other hand, that big orc iron fortress nearby. Zero guards, there is no guards at all. Go in and gank all you want. Just don't get near the warchief and you will find little resistance. Really really odd design.

You can't even fly near Star's Rest without the nelf archers going ape on you. Which is really horrible since you can't really see where it is, since there's a lot of tree cover.

God, I hated leveling up my hordies in Dragonblight due to Star's Rest. I swear, the number of times I accidentally rode through that place, I wanted to drop a nuclear bomb on it.
