So the Earthmother created the Moon and the Sun right?

The moon is:
-Elune
-Loa (Or is that the sun? I forget which)
-Mu'shu.

While the sun is:
-An'she
-(Presumed to be) The Light.

So in this sense...The Earth Mother is the most powerful Deity in Warcraft lore.

Or am I mistaken?

Elune is reportedly one of the few true Gods in Warcraft.

The Earthmother is....who knows? The Tauren have a legend that they sprang up from the earth itself....and this is pretty similar to what Therazane does in Deepholme. Could she be the Earthmother?

Suddenly, talking about the beauty of the Earthmother just turned sour.

I heard that there were similarities between Elune and the Earth Mother being the same deity, i could be completely wrong though.

We haven't been given any solid lore on the question, leaving us to only speculate.

The Earth Mother is most likely Eonar.

At least in my opinion.

  • Elune is a goddess that is said to be connected or living on the moon.
  • Loas are powerful animal spirits that the trolls worship as gods.
  • Mu'shu is the Tauren name for Elune and one of the moons. (Azeroth has/had two moons)
  • An'she is the Tauren name for the sun.
  • The light is the spiritual connection between most living beings and is powered through positive emotions.
  • And the shadow is the same as the light, but is powered through negative emotions.

Fixed. Whilst many of the Loa are represented by animals, not all of them are.

The elemental lords are certainly strong, but they arnt gods after all they were the servants of the old gods not their equals.

If Therazane is the earth mother she certainly isnt a match for elune in terms of power.

Elune is actually a Titan Battle Station in orbit around Azeroth that is capable of projecting energy shields onto specified targets.

They cant do it lucas will sue, he has as much humour in him as he does talent as a director i.e. none.

Since Elune/Mu'shu is "only" one of the Earth Mother's eyes, logically, Elune must be MUCH LESS POWERFULL compared to Earth Mother..

Considering most of tauren history is not written down getting a grip on whats true or false is a bit tricky.
But basically earth mother is Azeroth, not just the land but everything living on it (bird, trees, water, spirits). That is at least what the tauren mythology states.

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for fixing it for me.

This. The Earth Mother isn't a single entity, "she" is all the spirits of nature ( not the sentient spirits however) working in harmony with each other.

Also Tauren "history" should be taken with a pinch of salt because most of its wrong anyway.

Earthmother = non-existant, silly supersticion, much like how the Greeks thought Zeus and such were real Gods.

Elune = only true god.

Spoken like a true Nelf..

Pretty much all of elven history have been re-written when Blizzard made it canon that Night Elves devolved from Dark Trolls, and wasn't a first race, as they have always claimed..
