Welcome new followers! This is a collage of the sort of content you'll find here. I love gaming and particularly virtual photography. I often do this in Alpha and Beta versions, so with Midnight coming in a few months, fingers crossed I will be invited back in for that too! 😜 #WoW #Warcraft

A collage of many different screenshots of World of Warcraft including outdoor environments, indoor and in cave environments, important characters and small details such as food and architecture.

Check out these amazing amazards. These new members of the Lizard family can be found in Zul Aman in Midnight. There are more colours but I picked out two of the brightest.

A tauren hunter in WoW: MIdnight with a pair of "amazard" lizard pets. They're large lizards with four rows of wicked spikes along their backs and somewhat turtle-like faces with horned noses.

One is magenta-purple with a bright green back, and the other tomato red with a lime green back.

Wish we had a wild version of this new garden snail mount (coming in Midnight) to tame!

Four new garden snail mounts. All have a saddle on top of their shells. The shells look like cabbages and their bodies have a leaf- or scale-like covering. The colours are: Blue body with crimson shell, green body & shell, punk body with olive shell, orange body and shell.

It looks like not all Spiritpaws are the same, and the Chosen and the Ursa are certainly not friends! #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

Two Spiritpaws, bear like beings similar to Timbermaws, fighting at a camp.

There are many Shrine Baras and Bara Pups at the Shrine of Fi'lo, the Loa of Children. Here they are having a little dance. My heart! 🥰 #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

Not yet but soon, the Isle of Fangs and Strait of Hexx'alor. Even the warning speaks of snake! 🐍 #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

A foggy scene my character was flying into, with the text Isle of Fangs, and the warning Turn Back! An overwhelming force coils around, suffocating life from you!

Text reads Strait of Hexx'alor, and in the distance a large mountain with a troll-style building or temple with a carved snake's head.

The Zul'Aman Depths is an extensive underwater area with a deep trench of what appears to be lava under the surface of the sea floor. With so many vents you can almost smell the sulphur! I wonder what will live here or, what did? #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

The Witherbark Tribe are also in the new Phase of Alpha. I guess fishermen tales are the same no matter what the race. 😆 #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

Three Witherbark Villagers, one is Hav'kao, Fishing Trainer and Supplies, saying "You shoulda seen de fish. Dey was bigger than me harpoon!"

As anticipated, these horned capybaras are a great addition to the Rodent family!

Zul Aman is now open on the Midnight Alpha (Eversong now closed), so we get to see some new things!

Here's a selection of tameable pangolins - simply called 'pangos'.

They're classed as Scalehides, which may seem a bit odd for something that isn't a reptile but no stranger than snails as carapids*

A fanged pangolin hunter pet in Wow : Midnight. Its impressive, shingle-like scales are a lovely burnt-butter yellow.

With the next phase open in Alpha, once the servers are up I will head on in. Some more testing, a "couple" of screenshots and a whole lot of new things to post! 🥰

Coffee and a couple of pink-iced donuts before you start your day? This sweet little donut and coffee stand is just outside the main hub of Founders Point. #WoW #Warcraft #Midnight #MidnightAlpha

A little wooden cart on wheels that sells donuts and coffee, with chairs and small tables out the front with hot coffee and donuts on plates.
