  • WARNING: Today’s post contains SFW material viewed with a NSFW mind. You have been warned. If you compare the Night Elf society with the rest of the world of Azeroth, they are a radical departure from the societal norms that the other races and kingdoms hold. A society divided by gender lines – the women…

  • Location: Thousand Needles Atop the plateau that lines the outer ring of Thousand Needles, just past the the Twilight’s Hammer camp where they are forging some multi-faceted monstrosity called Animus, there is a giant stone green head.  This tells me two things:  First, no one apparently likes kal’dorei sculpture as I’m fairly certain not a one…

  • Location: Orgrimmar Docks, Durotar You know what I hate?  Murlocs.  They hunt in swarms, blitzing toward their targets like a group of gigantic amphibious hornets having a bad day, and then tackle, maim and devour you without a second thought.  There are few exceptions to this MO, like the Winterfin tribe of the Borean Tundra,…

  • If there is one thing I’ve noticed while going through the new Cataclysm 1 to 60 “experience” (because that’s the only marketing buzz word I can dig out of my brain that can accurately match the amazingly well done revision to the game in my opinion) is that someone at Blizzard – or all of…

  • Where? The Crossroads, Northern Barrens Who in Azeroth steals a wagon?  No, I’m serious.  We’re talking about a fantasy world where zeppelins and helicopters exist, everyone rides around on wolves, dinosaurs, big goats or something, and you can instantaneously receive a full-sized war bear from a mailbox (Behold the power of SCIENCE!).  Why would anyone…

And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future. You are interested in the unknown… the mysterious. The…

  • In the middle of nowhere, in the backwaters of Winterspring, Down in a gorge, I found the strangest thing. Back in a corner, trying not to freeze, I found the Lorax! He who speaks for the trees! He is a bit taller than in that book that I read, But despite his demonic appearance he…

  • Do you ever get the feeling that Blizzard reads your blog and has decided to respond to it? I’m starting to…

  • Where? Valley of Bones, Desolace I have a bone to pick with Cataclysm.  It’s a punch to the rib cage with all the changes it’s making to the Old World and I’m rattling my skull trying to think of all of the weird ones I need to cover before the big patch comes and leaves…

  • The Barrens.  Even the name doesn’t bring pleasant images to mind.  Across these dusty plains lies a couple of trees and maybe an oasis here or there.  The appearance just sets a somber tone for the many young Horde adventurers who will be spending a good deal of time here.  The lack of traffic has…
