Wow, that sounds painful. I don't really know anything about World of Warcraft, but how could she be a different species than her brother?

Oh god this is BAD. A whole bunch of Warcraft characters from at least three different times are taken to "our world", only with angels and wolf people ("Lycans", as I figured)...
And yes, there's a Sue in this. She's an angel with oceanic eyes and weird hair. Oh and she's immortal. And her brother is a Lycan.
Also, there are already some minis in the first chapter and one of the later chapters is an author's note. Derp.

I would probably be better able to tell out of characterness for this story, what with my literal days of playtime for World of Warcraft, if I actually paid attention to the story in it.
Of course, the story for Wow involves doing all of the big dungeon raids which I never got very far in. -

The Suefluence is awful. They're all awfully nice to her and she seems to hook up with Illidan of all people. Essentially, they're all reduced to bickering teenager personas. None of them act like themselves or reasonable at all.
Don't worry, I'll take care of that. There will be blood and it will glitter. -

So, yeah...only skimmed the first chapter and I can already tell you that the canons are badly out of character. They all speak and act like they are five years old (no offense intended to any five-year-olds who may be reading this). This includes the idea that your first attempt to defend your city should be for your leaders to charge blindly into the opposing army (which also happens to be headed by almost every leader of the other faction, for some reason).
Also, the spelling, punctuation, and grammar are frelled.
And as for ReginaTheNinja's question: You cannot be a different race than your biological siblings in any world that I am aware of. It has more to do with the Sue wanting to be extra special than it does with Warcraft. -

Well... You of course have the times when they're your half-sibling and the parent of both siblings in question has... rather "open" views. It sounds so noble when you describe it as the "love that transcends the boundaries of species", but when you actually THINK about what that means... eugh.
Also, you can't discount the possibilities of the post-birth race change (kind of like vampirism). Of course, either/both of these things, done badly, leads to more Sueness.
Which should logically lead to more violence. -

I'm into Warcraft myself and I feel the same. It hurts so much. I might even take this on if I get permission. Even as I'm typing this, remembering this fic makes me want to punch my face. Hard.

Goodness. If I didn't have a mission in the works, I'd totally take this. >_>;
It's pretty horrible.
