Despite being much dreaded on Draenor, it seems the mag’har managed to tame the garn for war mounts. At a guess they are probably AU additions to the Horde ranks.

Just more prove the mag’har didn’t chance at all from their Iron Horde days and the Lightbound where right in extermenating any who refused conversion.
Speaking of the mag’har; the allied race scenario shows draenor suffering desertification and the orc npcs proudly stating that they defeated the Primals. As we know, this upsets the delicate balance of Draenor’s flora and fauna, the Breakers, children of Grond being victorious.
Draenor is dying because of the orcs, as was always their fate, fel or not, following the pattern of predestination in the alternate timeline with events unfolding in different but similar ways. The Lightbound draenei call the orcs out on this but they dismiss it in their pride, refusing to listen to an enemy.
tl:dr, draenor was always doomed to be destroyed by the orcs and the mag’har responsibility is sadly an easily missed but immensely important detail.

That’s not necessarily the case, Levey. For all we know, they may never have succeeded in the extermination of the Primals if not for the Azerothian intervention with their world. Iron Horde tech, etc.
Also important to note is that the Orcs and Draenei lived in peace for years after we departed. It wasn’t necessarily the Horde alone who defeated the Primals.
Cool compass
Well it wouldn’t really matter, seeing as that timeline was doomed to die anyway. As far as I know the connection with the true timeline doesn’t change this one’s fate.
It’s perpetually spinning and refuses to settle!!!
IT’S GOBLIN TIME!
Two fun facts from the K3 questline in the Storm peaks:
-
Apparently strapping a bunch of bombs to your back and jumping at enemies only to explode together is a viable fighting tactic for goblins, or at least the ones stationed at K3. Probably worth mentioning that they go boom multiple times until they themselves die as well. Or maybe it’s not. It’s still a stupid tactic… though pretty badass.
-
Apparently, there’s an organization called the “Inventor’s League”. An item called the “Inventor League’s Ring” is the only other proof we have of its existence, which happens to be a quest reward from a goblin. Its mention by a goblin and the Inventor’s League Ring might mean it’s a goblin-only organization, but the only thing we’re really sure of is that it exists, even if that’s somewhere in the vast swathes of lore limbo.

have anyone gone over how Dark Irons always bring their own food when they go to parties or gatherings where consumption of food stuffs is a vital part?
they supposedly do this to avoid being poisoned.
Yeah, because among the Dark Irons its common to poison each other or what not.
Don’t think it’s common now, though, being part of the alliance.
still a fun little character dynamic you can use in your dark iron roleplay
Goblin suicide sappers have been a thing since WC2, those boys are keeping up a proud tradition.

Kael’thas actively took advantage of his people’s addiction to magic, arguably the reason why some elves towed the line with him right to the end was because of this.

“Exposure to this level of raw energy greatly magnifies our innate addiction to magic. I’m not surprised Kael gets away with what he does; all his subordinates are basically drunk on this.”

It just occurred to me that both Ulfar and Arthur Tradewind speak common in their animal forms. What does this mean for Druid RP ? Can they speak in their animal forms? Or is that only a Thornspeaker thing?
Some druids can, some can’t
We see Thaon Moonclaw and Koda Steelclaw talking in their forms in Val’sharah, although they are archdruids…
It may be based on skill, don’t know

That’s been a thing for such a long time with so many examples that it’s arguable that the idea that druid cannot speak in these forms is headcanon.

Ferryn was beside her in his favorite shape—that of the nightsaber. For a moment, Delaryn rejoiced. But then she realized that he was speaking. He should not have been able to.
Feline mouths could not form words.
From Elegy. Druids speaking in their various forms is, and has always been, a gameplay convenience.
Anyway. Some Trolls use nose rings in the same way humans would use a wedding ring. It’s quite cute.

Tusk rings aswell.
Seems like Trolls put rings onto their significant other in some way or another.

At the very least, Blizzard is inconsistent with druids speaking.
Trolls invented wedding rings. More material for the headcanon thread.
