Around Azeroth Beta Edition: All God's children are hideous
Look out! Coach Oleander from Psychonauts has escaped Camp Whispering Rock and is roaming the wilds of Azeroth, terrifying children of all races with his war flashbacks. Actually, our intrepid editor Alex identifies this creature as a pygmy, which raises some disturbing questions about where pygmy oil comes from. (Thanks to beta tester Guwande for this screenshot.)

This creature's face reminds me of, er, Oglaf's dwarves.

I love the look of these guys. They remind me of brownies.

Pygmy Oil comes from Pygmy Suckerfish. Either one should be a random drop from these mobs.
What are they meant to be anyway, Felblood Gnomes?

Oh dear god.... did gnomes and troggs crossbreed???

Sand Pygmy Gnomes! AAAAIIIIEEEEEEE!
Jack Miles Aug 4th 2010 10:05AM
My guess is that these are to gnomes what troggs are to dwarves.
Do we know any lore behind these guys?

Wasn't this the new basic model for Troggs?
Noraa Aug 4th 2010 10:22AM
Yes, they are, thanks to the lack of interest in updating player models. Ohh pushing agenda ftw

Pygmy Oil? Now you've made me worry how they make baby oil.

Damn Nature, you scary!

I would dislike gnomes less if this was the new gnome model.
It'd be less repulsive for a start.
