Arguably more so than the majority of other races present in the setting.(10-08-2013, 01:06 PM)Theodric Ironheart Wrote: Â ...even the most grittiest blood elf as a tweenager instead of a zealous, driven individual...
Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah... woah... ... woah. There are "gritty" Belfs?
They're also often portrayed as being both masculine and rather physically strong and imposting, so if anyone truly believes that the following elves are 'feminine' then I'd happily consider them to be an idiot:

I designed them with the grittier concept art in mind. I've been a fan of the blood elves ever since they first came to be. It's just a shame they attract so many stupid role-players. I feel the same way about the Miqo'te and Elezen in FFXIV - they're not feminine, yet a very large portion of role-players insist on presenting them as being that way. In turn, many other role-players begin incorporating that into their role-play to the point where it is seen as the norm rather than the exception.
...and that, along with numerous other reasons is why I loathe most role-players!
