Line 77:
** In the Borean Tundra, the players are asked by one of the good guy groups (the Kirin Tor, to be precise) to torture a captured agent of the Blue Dragonflight until he cracks. The Kirin Tor wizard who gives the quest hands you a torture device noted in its description to inflict excruciating pain without causing any physical harm, and that it's made in Dalaran, the Kirin Tor home city. The wizard in turn specifically states that Kirin Tor law forbids them from torturing prisoners... so they hire you, the player, to torture the prisoner with a device made by the Kirin Tor while the wizard observes.
*** Worse yet is the fact that that particular quest gives the player ''no'' opportunity to object to the prisoner's treatment. Oh sure, you can abandon the quest and find something else to fill your exp bar, but that wizard is just going to give his quest to some other hero. And to make matters worse the Borean Tundra ''isn't phased,'' so he's just going to keep giving out torture assignments to hero after hero, the captured agent doomed to a life of horrific mental agony...
** Blood death knights. Just spend a little time trying to figure out how their spells actually ''work'' in-game and try not to shudder. Death Strike heals you based on how much damage you've recently suffered. Which means that either the spell is indirectly [[Cast Fromfrom Hit Points]], or it heals you by sucking your blood back off the floor and shoving it back into your veins. This pales beside Bloodworms though. You summon them and they attack enemies until for a while then die and heal nearby allies. Or to put it another way, you heal people by drenching them in the remains of a haemophagic worm that gorged itself until it exploded. [[Squick|Ew.]]
*** Any Death Knights. The DK starting quest line was enough to convince this troper he just wasn't evil enough to play a DK.
** So according to lore, dragons are the oldest and wisest of all the mortal races and were charged by the Keepers themselves to protect the aspects of Azeroth. They are also the only sentient species in the game which you can skin, use as a mount, keep as pets, and ''slaughter by the thousands for no reason whatsoever.'' (And lest you think all those baby dragon whelplings you killed weren't self-aware yet, a certain [http://www.wowwiki.com/Awbee tiny blue hatchling] would like a word with you.) No wonder Malygos wants to murder us all!
