Long ago, before the First War, the warlock Gul'dan exiled a clan of orcs called the Frostwolf Clan (led by Durotan, father of Thrall) to a hidden valley deep in the heart of the Alterac Mountains for refusing to drink the blood of Mannoroth. "The Frostwolf Clan and the Stormpike Expedition battle for supremacy of this territory." A large-scale battleground, each side attempts to destroy each other's tower fortifications and slay the enemy General (Vanndar Stormpike or Drek'Thar).īesides its humanoid settlers the valley is also home to frost wolves brought from Draenor, rams, goats and owls.

The Stormpike dwarves have established a foothold in the valley and seek to plumb its depths for riches and links to their ancestral past. Hidden within the Alterac Mountains, Alterac Valley is the home of the Frostwolf clan. Were the dwarves who arrived in the valley peaceful explorers who were massacred by the orcs, or did they plan to poach and conquer? Description The Stormpike Expedition’s desire to mine and plumb the underexplored caves for relics has invited conflict with the Frostwolf Clan, but opinions are divided on who struck first. The Frostwolves, however, chose to remain in the valley rather than joining Thrall in Orgrimmar – and their relative peace has since been challenged by the arrival of the dwarven Stormpike Expedition. The Frostwolf Clan eked out a living until Thrall triumphantly united many of Azeroth’s orcs. Long ago, the warlock Gul'dan exiled a clan of orcs called the Frostwolves to a valley hidden deep in the heart of the Alterac Mountains.
