calling all Warcraft lore nerds out

[ajtyeh]

hey, i have a friend that just started WoW and is now curious about ALL OF THE Warcraft lore, you konw from the beginning of warcraft 1, 2, 3 and when it was just orcs humans, then the nelfs, and then the undead.

if someone could find a link or type up a quick 2-3 paragraph summary cliffnote on the basic gist of warcraft lore id truly appreciate it. i know wowwiki has lore but its like 50 pages all seperated.

Thanks in advance

So you want someone else to go through them all and type up a synopsis for you?

1. Wrong forum

2. Go to http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/story/index.html and read up yourself.

3. This lore thing is really for you I bet.

My old guild had a lore monkey. He was amazing knew everything about everything and this was days after release.

I would not reccomend reading these (good for reference though) because some of it was retconned such as the Eredar thing

If he is interested in WC lore tell him to stop playing WoW as they are entirely unrelated except for the fact that WoW butchers the story the few times it touches it.

The lore is interesting. When I use to play WoW we had a guy that was hardcore into the lore and knew it all. It really made things more interesting know all the background behind things and not just the little blurps they would give you in game.
