Trivia
- Bailey plays Dungeons & Dragons with fellow voice actors on the web show Critical Role, hosted by Matthew Mercer. Besides Mercer and Bailey, other actors on the show who have had roles in Warcraft are Travis Willingham, Sam Riegel, Taliesin Jaffe, and Liam O'Brien.
- In a one-shot Warcraft campaign created as an advertisement for Hearthstone: Kobolds & Catacombs, Laura Bailey played a gnome mage who was a big fan of Jaina Proudmoore, Bailey's main World of Warcraft role.
- Bailey has stated that Jaina as the #1 character that has defined her career in voice acting, stating "it’s cool because when you’re with a character for that long, you really get to see them grow up. She’s matured right along with me. From when I first started voicing her, she was this...I don’t want to say naive, but a very peace-loving, almost innocent, hopeful woman. I [saw] her grow and go through tragedy and become vengeful. And then to crawl out of that pit of despair and find an inner peace again...it’s so fulfilling to get to have that."[2]
