Alliance Easter Eggs







You have now seen many easter eggs from the Horde territory and around some neutral places. Now its time for a peek inside the Alliance easter eggs. It's only around Stormwind city since it takes a higher lvl character to sneak around outside this area. So heres a peak at some ally easter eggs that the Horde wont bumb into.

[Picture 1]: A Bishop named DeLavey stands in the Cathedral of Stormwind and is a reference to Anton Szandor LaVey who was a big fan of satan! He founded the church of satan in 1966 where he worked as a high priest and he also wrote "the satanic bible" and founded something called LaVeyan satanism.

[Picture 2]: Haggle is a poor homeless guy that lives at the Deeprum Tram (a subway). Here he looks through the carbage all day long while he talks to himself. One of the things you can hear him say is; "Forty-two... forty-two... forty-two what? It could be anything! Forty-two... hmmm...". This should ring a bell to those who has read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" - which is a really good book written by Douglas Adams. Apparently Haggle read the book before his life on the street.

[Picture 3-5]: If you take the three bankers in Stormwind and put their first names together you get the name Olivia Newton John. Olivia is best known for her role as Sandy in Grease with John Travolta but has also had succes as a popsinger and songwriter. You might know the hits "Lets get physical" and "I honestly love you" from the 70ies.

[Picture 6]: This dude is named after Leonard McCoy who is a character from the original Star Trek series. Treky or not, im sure you all have at least heard of this American Science Fiction serie that started way back in the 60ies. The middle name "Fingers" im sure he got cause he is actually a lockpicking trainer in the game. In Star Trek however, McCoy is the doctor on the ship and he must have done a good job since he got a Npc named after him. Unless ofcourse you see it as a punishment that they made him Alliance :p
