Grom's son, Garrosh went back in time (in an alternate timeline as well) with the help of a Bronze Dragon in human form. He went back to stop his father from drinking Mannoroth's blood to stop the corruption of the orcs (ya drink the pit lord's blood, you become enslaved to the Burning Legion - it's like signing a contract).


Ever wondered why orcs are green? They were corrupted, that's the mark they were left with. Regular Mag'Har orcs are browish (kind of like the color of a brick) - like Garrosh or Drek'Thar for example.


Fel Orcs are red because they drank the blood of Magtheridon, different pit lord that ruled over Hellfire Penninsula before Illidian killed him with the help of the Blood Elves and Naga.

Right, garrosh. I know about the green and brown stuff, but why did he go back? I have not played any wow but read a few books. The last I know was that theramore isle was destroyed and jaina became the leader of the kirin tor.

Edit- if the warchiefs of the horde exp. happened in an alternate timeline, when did this one deviate from that in which the story is mostly based on?

Sorry if I don't make sense :p

THE STORY SO FAR

So, basically Garrosh committed a bunch of war crimes, which culminates in the Siege of Orgrimmar raid where you fight him and take him out. However, you don't kill him, and instead he is taken to Pandaland to face trial. Before this trial, the bronze dragon Kairozormu breaks him out of prison, and they go to Draenor.
Why Kairoz did this is revealed through questing - since the dragon aspects lost their power, a sect of bronze dragons got salty about the loss of their timey wimey powers. Using an artifact that the players helped make, he travels to an alternate universe Draenor. Here, he hopes to gather an 'infinite number of armies, an infinite number of worlds' and conclude that 'I would be... INFINITE!' (note that the infinite dragonflight were corrupted bronze dragons from the future - while Kairoz isn't actually becoming an infinite dragon he shares similar goals). Then, Garrosh gets sick of being used as a pawn and kills Kairoz. Rip that possibly interesting story arc. Wasted opportunity much.

So basically he then rallies the orc tribes - since this is an alternate universe, Mannoroth and Archimonde and stuff aren't dead (there is a certain tweet from a story guy about the Twisting Nether stuff and demons, but that's where it gets REALLY ****ing complicated. Just assume that AU Mann and Archi aren't dead). So yeah, in the Warlords opening cinematic Grom kills Mannoroth like he did in WC3, and Garrosh saves him from the fireblast which was a pretty awesome moment. Then, they imprison Gul'dan and the Shadow Council and make the Iron Horde.

The players free Gul'dan, Teron'gor and Cho'gall to destroy the Dark Portal and stop the iron horde invasion, and basically this comes back to bite them in the ***. I don't know why we didn't just shank them to be honest. So we romp around Draenor, kick the **** out of some orcs, kill Blackhand and Kargath Bladefist, and Ner'zhul in a very underwhelming way.

So Gul'dan goes to Grom and says 'hey lol ur getting rekt, drink my green cool-aid Mountain Dew demon blood' to which Grom says 'lol *** off' so Gul'dan beats him up and gives the blood to Kilrogg Deadeye who takes it. Gul'dan then remakes the Iron Horde into the Fel Horde, corrupts Tanaan Jungle and all this ****. We raid his power base, Hellfire Citadel, and basically that's where it's up to. We kill evil space goats, some salty green bird men, and then they resurrect Mannoroth, so we kill him again. Then they pull Archimonde out of their *** and yeah that's it.
There are two kinds of people in the world; those who can count, and those who can't.

FeelsGoodMan dumpstering kids with my newly purchased Enigma immortal. First Black Hole I casted with those was a 4 man one, followed by 3 more in the same game (**** you Rubick for trying to steal it every time - and succeeding but dying in the meantime).


That Huskar = dumpestered. Get Solar Crested son.

I noticed that Chi-Chi appears in Dotafire whenever I start to get mean to other guide writers and tells the other person that I did not want to be mean and that I just wanted to help.
