If the guild were Dark Elves <Dark Men Of Neriak> there wouldn't be this fake virtue signaling outrage

The toddlers screaming at everyone that they are racist can't comprehend their own racism, since they are equating the guild name with skin color and not fantasy elements such as class and deity

Why would Prexus followers ally with Cazic Thule followers?

This doesn't account for the character names. But there is no dark elf equivalent IRL, except maybe that guy who drank colloidal silver. This was about as subtle as an all white elf guild named Felwithe Power. You can wriggle and squirm excuses out left and right, but the allusion was made. Everyone picked up on it.

Also it's public ridicule, not outrage. The outrage us coming from the chuckleheads who made themselves so much of a problem that it finally caught up with them and their pixellated dollhouse got taken apart.

Should we cancel the Leeroy Jenkins meme? Is that racist?

You are proving my point

You people see skin color in EVERYTHING and most of you are probably white manbabies with moobs

If someone created a guild named "Felwithe Power" and they were paladins, clerics and wizards who all worshipped Tunare, I'm sorry, but rational, NORMAL people wouldn't equate that name to White Power

That's absurd and a stupid leap in logic

The dirty little secret is weak and spineless (most likely white) keyboard manbabies hurl that accusation around like a weapon because it gives them the power to bully other people without being held accountable

Felwithe is an anagram of white elf

Hope helps

I think a better one would be a guild that only accepts melee in skele form (AoN, shroud of undeath) and call it Wright Power.
