didnt see a topic on this so... I've been wondering with all the other high/blood elves under arthas becoming vampires. She herself going from banshee back to her own body , exactly what would she be considered? If she is semi vampiric what about the other elves who died along side her, i'm pretty sure they all weren't turned into pure banshees?

Nawwww, Arthas turned most High Elves women in banshees, Sylvanas was the first. Later, during the Scourge civil war, she retreived her body.
The other Elves under Athas' command are remnants of Kael'thas' strikeforce. He probably turned them into the
Sanalyn because of their name, Blood Elves. He's got a sick sense of humor like that.
Could you explain that part in details please? I did not get most of it.
Like, what does sanalyn mean, and what's so funny about it.

It was stated in the book "Arthas: Rise of the Lich King" that after being a banshee she managed to recover her original corpse off of Arthas's meat wagons and possess it, and has been inside it ever since. How long after her death that she did this is anyone's guess, but for a corpse she looks damn good. Could be some necromantic reverse rot spell or something :)

What I read is that her body had been locked away in a casket and burried deep underground. Arthas didn't even know how she got it back.

The Dreadlords helped her; you see a portion of it in Warcraft 3.

but still, i know blizz likes to take ideas and such from other things, and in a lot of cultures the idea of a ghost (banshee) taking over its own body is a vampire (most dont need to actually drink blood). i'm just really curious of what type of undead you classify her as

She's the Banshee Queen or an Undead Elf.
Warcraft has two Vampirac races in it: San'Layn, which are more corpse elves, and the Dreadlords who are also possessors.

to be considered a vampire, you'd have to drink blood, when was the last time we saw sylvannas craving for blood to litteraly drink?
besides not "all" blood elves who are undead became Darkfallen. We have the dark rangers, and the banshees too.
only the blood elves who went to icecrown under the command of kael became Darkfallen. Why didn't arthas just turned the women into more banshees and the men into standard undead? Rule of Cool I guess. Wow didn't had any real vampires in it, and everyone knows that no RPG is complete without having vampires and werewolves. Gotta admit though, they were pretty clever about it because they added "Expys" of vampires and werewolves instead of the real thing. Worgens instead of traditional werewolves (worgens aren't allergic to silver, don't depend on the moon to transform, don't have tails, ect) and Darkfallen instead of traditional Vampires (these don't burn with the sunlight, aren't allergic to garlic, these do have a reflection, don't turn to ashes when killed)

just put a worgen vs a Blood Elf Death Knight in Blood spec.
problem fixed.
in the background story of my DK, (she's frost....... most of the time. She sometimes dabbles into unholy) most of the Death Knights she met while working for the scourge who chose Blood as their Master Rune, had vampiric tendencies. Not only they used the blood of their enemies against them, they also had quite a pleasure in drinking blood and coating their weapons/armors/selves in blood of multiple races.

No. She doesn't sparkle. Therefore, she is not a vampire.
