Huh? Since when could we actually strike a conversation with this guy? In the past all horde characters could do with him was left-click him and get uniqe quotes. [[User:Hordesupporter|Hordesupporter]] 00:04, 11 March 2007 (EST)

:In case you don't get what I mean, now we can right-click on him to talk to him, he says something like "Another soldier to fight for a cause? The spirits smile upon us today."

Its official, for the third year running, Vol'jin has taken crown as worst dressed person in Azeroth. It's a bit insulting to Troll fans that our racial leader looks like he was tailored by the lovechild of Boy George and Tarzan, god, could we at least give him a decent black armor set like the rest of the Horde racial leaders?

To be honest i kind of like the way he is dressed,i garee he would look great in an armor set (like Thralls for example) but oh well Blizz has some work on their heads to try to please as many as possible so it's understandable........maybe the expansion will make him more of a fashion boss?BTW beware what you wish for,,,,if they change his outfit they may change it in a bad way([[User:Marakanis|Marakanis]] 18:41, 5 October 2007 (UTC))

Its hard to worship a character with little to no personality, I just so happen to be the only one willing to come near this page, and I'm an English major; I have an instinct to embellish things.

Appearance

Its official, for the third year running, Vol'jin has taken crown as worst dressed person in Azeroth. It's a bit insulting to Troll fans that our racial leader looks like he was tailored by the lovechild of Boy George and Tarzan, god, could we at least give him a decent black armor set like the rest of the Horde racial leaders?

You might want to take your protest to Blizzard on their official forums. Vol'jin does seem to be a neglected character overall in World of Warcraft. --Fandyllic (talk · contr) 11:26 AM PDT 5 Oct 2007

Naz'grel used to offer that same quest and gave the exact same answer.

Vol'jin's son

In the pages (in the infoboxes) of Vol'jin and Yenniku it is said that they're father and son, as Yenniku was referred as "the chief's son" in the quest serie Fate of Yenniku. In the last quest text on wowhead it is reported a sentence that in Quest:Saving Yenniku we don't have, that is "...but for now, I at least know that my son's soul is free.", and it is said by Nimboya; this would make Yenniku son of Nimboya, and not of Vol'jin.
