Revision as of 02:37, 16 August 2011
Well World of Warcraft: The Magazine Issue #5 has been arriving in mailboxes as of this date and it brings a tremendous amount of lore with it. This out of my league when it comes to editing but as an overview we have...
-Cenarius, Freya and the Tribunal of Ages all confirmed to Brann that Night Elves evolved from the Dark Trolls
-Tauren do predate the titans (even though the recent ask CDev implied they didn't)
-Pandaren have a society older than that of the night elves
-Curse of Flesh IS what turned Vrykul into humans
-The orcs drove a race of giants to extinction to build their temples, but this race was not gronn, technically as...
-Earth Giants apparently were turned into Gronn who then turned into ogres and ettin.
-The Ettin are from Draenor and are a "missing link" in the evolution of ogres
-The Magnataur are related to Cenarius
-Grell were created by Aessina (Brann says that she believes so, but can't remember much about creating them)
-He believes Kaja'mite might have sinister origins. Specifically it says "Need tae research that ore. Somethin's nae right about it."
-Kobolods are actually an evolved form of trogg.
-There are no records of frost dwarves in Ulduar, so Brann speculates they emerged from Uldaman with the regular dwarfs and then migrated to Northrend.
-Pandaren claim to be older than furblogs and are not related to them. Brann claims that he he learned this from Chen who's "puns are infectious".
-Brann believes all non titan races except trolls and their descendants are the offspring of various ancients. Tauren came from a "bull ancient", gorlocs from a a "frog ancient" (they later evolved into murlocs), Tuskarr from a "walrus ancient", harpies from Aviana, ect.
