Brown Orcs should happen

The fact that we are going to be going to a world, in which almost all the Orcs have brown skin, is one of the reasons why I believe, this skin color should be an option given to the players.

It would especially benefit Rping.

You could create an Orc, who originated on AU Draenor, and chooses to join the Horde, or even play a ex-Iron Horde member. Of course for those who want to RP a Mag'har (non-corrupted Orcs from Original Draenor), this would give them that option.

Though if brown skin becomes a reality for character creation/customization, I believe other races should get more variation as well.

We do think offering some other skin options is a pretty cool idea (Dark Iron dwarves? Brown orcs?) but our priority is still the updates to the features that already exist--the blood elf update is in-progress--as well as prioritizing some tasks based on feedback to all the model updates that went out in 6.0.2.
