I edited the heart shape of the model into something more triangular.

I do plan on making a more in-depth remodeling, problem is that the normals depend on how every polygon is just separate and may require a bit of time from me to actually get somewhere fjjfjfjfghfjg

They are redeemed as in the sense that they are taken out of the Scarlet Crusade, not the Scarlet Crusade But Good

TLDR: Scarlets at their roots are rotten.

Their aesthetics are tied to that evil.

If you stop being evil as a scarlet, you cease to be a scarlet, and you do not dress as a scarlet.

Yeah and literally, the Scarlet Crusade and the Argent Dawn/Crusade are the same people from The Knights of the Silver hand and they split apart BECAUSE of the racism after Alexandros's death

Right! The Crusade was rotten from the start and it could only have gotten worse since then bc each time it's been revived after being wiped out, it's been done with the full knowledge of what it was before. It's not like it's some little secret cult, it's a huge military operation with a very

my condolences 😔

personally, I think Mechagnomes are less egregious as at least they had a previous narrative presence and are not encroaching on another race's thing in the same way. Rather, they're an extension of gnome lore

But I do wish we got Sethrak / MGs coulda been extra customisation

And I prefer this because it's analogous to the IRL Haitian Bondye and his relationship with the Loa as intermediators.

You can have an arc of rehabing them, but it must be done outside of the aesthetic trap that their whole order is. They already have 3 orders they're purposefully forgetting

and it is good to point that this was BEFORE BALNAZZAR

The evil of the Scarlet Crusade is HUMAN MADE

gotten more racist and less faith-based in that time, something we literally just saw with the Arathi questline

Yeah it really makes no sense, it's been established since *WotLK* that even within the order it was well known that pretty much all new recruits were just there for the racism. Trying to frame the new story as if the SC is about faith *17 years* after this is just so silly. It could only have +

Blizzard really looked at the weird nazi RPers on Alliance MG and said “yeah…I want to market to these people”

(Had to say this a second time because I really hate the weird nazi RPers on Alliance MG)

I think that if I get the Beta I will be Extremely Scathing with this.
November 12, 2025 at 12:28 PM
I think it's not still themselves as Scarlet Crusade, but even if it was I agree. We already have 3 takes of the same thing: Silver Hand, Argent Dawn/Crusade, and Brotherhood of the Light

People who no longer hold the values of the Scarlet Crusade can just... leave? They really don't have anything culturally different from the other human paladin orders.
