Orb of Command
The Orb of Command is an orb which is used as a "shortcut" entrance to Blackwing Lair in Blackrock Mountain. It is located down the hall to the right of the entrance to Blackrock Spire.
It was only usable if one had completed the quest 
[60D] Blackhand's Command, the attunement quest for Blackwing Lair. With the revamp of Upper Blackrock Spire in patch 6.0.2, the quest was removed and so was the attunement requirement.

- A large humanoid hand print is embedded on the surface of the orb. Despite what appears to be constant manipulation and handling, the orb remains unmarred.
