Moth
- ️Tue Oct 14 2014
Moths are flying insect beasts with powdery wings that can be found on Azeroth, Outland/Draenor, and Argus.
Blue Moths are delicate denizens of Azuremyst Isle who are rumored to have healing abilities.[1] A product of exposure to wild magical energies, the Red Moth is the unexpectedly colorful result of Azerothian moth species being released into the eco-domes of the Netherstorm.[2] Jinyu assassins employ the Ashwing Moth as both a portable decoy and a light source to reveal weak spots in their enemy's armor.[3] The curious Skywisp Moth is sometimes found interrupting the spells of a wandering mage or warlock.[4]
