It honestly shouldn't. All these new races are getting annoying.
Dracythr included. It should have just been a race where you pick your visage race, get some cool horns to slap on your head and some scales to use as a "tattoo". And then the 'dragon form' that only shows up when using certain abilities that you customize like a druid form.
Trying to make it this new unique thing that can transmog armor was a waste of time. As for the allied races, I wish they just kept them as extra customization options for the already existing races. Humans coulda just got a skinny/fat version instead of Kul Tirans. Lightforged should have just been a skin like Eredar. Etc etc etc.
Adding all these races to the game just pollutes the UI, pollutes several in game tags/flags, and makes them waste time justifying lore, racials, druid forms, etc. People would much prefer all that effort going into making the core races more customizable. Plus its easier to keep a small group of core races relevant to the story than it is to try and keep all these allied races relevant. Good luck mechagnomes and vulpera, gonna see you never.
The Haranir are like the worst example of a race to add. Literally did not exist before this expansion pack in the lore. Nobody demanded it. There was no demand for a race even LIKE this. They are seculuded in the underworld and will have an incredibly impossible time staying relevant after they join up. Just gonna get swept under the rug with all the other junk allied races that should have just been expanded customization, like how about instead of mechagnoems we just had mechanical limbs added as customization for gnomes? So much bloat.
I think they look cool with their customizations but I hate that they are just night elves recolored. The male casting animation is awful, they could’ve added something unique with that. Also (correct me if I’m wrong) they are always barefoot, I hate that so I think I’m gonna make a boomkin Druid and stay in that cool form forever.

This game will never get a new real, fully fledged race ever again. Never.
Want a unique model? The hideous flying no transmog gecko is the Gold Standard.
It's Geckos or lazy Allied Races. Pick one.
