The Orcish Race:

The orc race originated on the planet Draenor. A Peaceful people with shamanic belifes, they were enslaved by the Burning Legion and force into war with the humans of Azeroth. Although it took many years, the orcs finally escaped the demons' corruption and wond their freedom. To this day they fight for honor in an alien world that hates and reviles them.

Character Creation Options




Racial Mount: Wolf

Wolves are indigenous to many parts of Azeroth. They live on every known continent and have a wide variety of subspecies and social habits. Although most are hostile toward anyone who trespasses on their territories, a few unique dire wolf packs have befriended the Horde in recent years. These cunning and ferocious creatures have found an especially welcome home among the orcs, who admire their endurance and keen survival instincts.

Orc/Troll City - Orgrimmar

Named in honor of the legendary Orgrim Doomhammer, Orgrimmar was founded to be the capital city of the Orcs' new homeland. Built within a huge, winding canyon in the harsh land of Durotar, Orgrimmar stands as one of the mightiest Warrior cities in the world. Behind Orgrimmar's immense walls, elderly Shamans patiently share their knowledge with the Horde's newest generation of leaders, while Warriors spar in the gladiatorial arena, honing their skills in preparation for the trials that await them in this dangerous land. .

Voices

These audio files are just 1 of many for each race's male and female vocal commands. Players can use these commands to actually play an audio voice file of common phrases so that everyone nearby may here. Its a good way to communicate with your group, just incase anyone isnt reading the chat. The voice commands consist of the following:

  • Assist Me
  • Charge
  • Cheer
  • Flee
  • Follow
  • Wait
  • Help
  • Heal Me
  • Incomming
  • Open Fire
  • Out of mana
  • Raspberry

Each vocal command has an animation tied to it as well. There are other vocals in the game that only the player can hear. For example, if you are out of range of your target, your character will speak to you and say "I need to get closer" or "I'm to far away"
