The Earthen will be playable in World of Warcraft: The War Within, allowing players to fully explore their character customizations, racial attributes, and race-specific class models. As well as, some fantastic passive improvements to their armor and gathering stats.
As stone beings, they are unable to consume food and instead receive the "Well Fed" bonus, which they can personalize by consuming jewels. However, their most interesting racial ability is Azerite Surge.

Earthen Unique Features in WoW: The War Within
Though World of Warcraft's Warbands system allows players to see up to four of their characters on a single screen, the Earthen still have a distinct character choice background set in Khaz'Algar.
The race can choose Paladin or Shaman as their class, which includes unique totems and a charging mount.
While many World of Warcraft players were initially skeptical of the Earthen Allied Race, their intriguing and powerful racial traits and their distinct lore have gradually won them over. The Earthen, like the other Allied Races, will not be available straight away, as the unlock process appears to be limited to finishing the main story and a few Earthen-specific side missions.
Some enthusiasts believe World of Warcraft may include a second Allied Race in The War Within. The Harronir, thought to live in the Azj-Kahet zone, resemble a cross between Night Elves and Trolls, but with porcupine-like quills.
While there is no assurance that they will be introduced, Harronir already have a wide range of customization possibilities and share the majority of the necessary player model animations and rigging, leading many to anticipate that these strange creatures will also be playable.
