The good news is all these dynasty quests have gotten me back on WoW for the first time in four years, so my shoddy lore should fix itself soon enough.

Well, Honestly. The only one who I'd believe has a 100% of not getting corrupted by the Arcane. It's Jorin because of his unbreakable will perk.
Everyone else can get corrupted by the Arcane if they don't use magic responsibly. Just like how medicine can kill you if you overdose, but is incredibly useful used responsibly. Course, you have to be an idiot to let go of your self control and you will have people who are more susceptible than others. But yea.

Maybe. They're a wild card at the very least.
They might help us, they might fight us, whichever they think is more profitable depending on the group and their goal.
True enough, but unlike everyone else on this hellish rock, they've had no prior experience with the Horde.
They're not very good as long time allies though outside a few exceptions though. The other races may have had prior experience with the horde. But, should we get over their initial impressions, we can set up a pretty long term alliance.
no time shenanigans
Ethereals like goblins except cross-planetary and less explosions, we'll see what we see
arcane magic not corrupt inherently, but anything that gives anyone an advantage over the mundane could gain slight changes to the personality, this is natural
no time shenanigans, players not dragonflight

never knew about the bitch-fight, only that the RPG is non-canon.
What happened?
From what I heard (which is admittedly hear-say), White Wolf decided to diverge from Blizzard on several aspects of canon.
- All Undead have free will.
- High Elf rangers lynch every Troll they see; this is justified.
- Illidan wants to become the new lich king.
- The central conflict of WoW is between Arcane (EVIL) and Divine (good) magic.
- The Frostwolf Orcs are filthy squatters and the Stormpikes are completely justified in trying to give them the boot.
Arcman
Heh
Hmm, what about the Blood Elves and those that became the wretched when they got cut off from their Arcane fix?

And when even the ones that were arcane magic users with centuries of experience (IE very good at collecting/manipulating magic) couldn't get enough without the Sunwell helps you know they were swimming in the stuff beforehand.
Da Boyz
The Cutest Apocalypse.
Wasn't their entire case built on it being their "ancestral land" that they've been in for less then 30 years?This is true though.
Druidism didn't develop because the Emerald Dream doesn't expand to Outland.
Arcman
Heh
Yes. It's rather funny.
Ah HAH, I knew there was a reason I thought Arcane was addicting and corrupting.
There's a beginner quest in WoW where a mage trainer talks about how magic can be bad. Could have sworn there was another one but at least I know I'm not just making it up.
Then again, guy could have just been trying to scare my character but eh.

Dumb.
If it was High Elf rangers lynching Forest Trolls, that might make sense, mainly because the forest trolls would be sacrificing every High Elf they could. Although the 'entirely justified' bit is dumb as hell, especially since neither side is justified in that context.
Super dumb.
Really, really dumb.
Kind of dumb, kind of accurate. The Frostwolf Orcs have only been around for, what?, 30 something years. It's not really their land to claim 'ancestral ownership' on, considering the Alterac humans have been there longer.
Probably. Been a while.
Edit: Then again, the list was correct about the attracting beings from the Twisting Nether thing. And that magic is powerful.
Wasn't the conflict between dwarves and frostwolves rather than humans and frostwolves? The Dwarves wanted to mine the frostwolves home for some reason. And the Frostwolves were like no, this is our home now.

It's a bit of a mess, all said. Both the Dwarves and Orcs are in kind of dickish positions in regards to what they're arguing (fighting) over.
The Dwarves want to mine the region, and want the Orcs out, because fuck greenskins. The Orcs want to live in their new home without the influence of either humans or dwarves, because fuck pinkskins.
It's a mess altogether really. It's a shame the Cenarion Circle doesn't have more power, because Azeroth desperately needs a god damn middle mediator between the Horde and Alliance.

The druids themselves are fucking morons too. They can't even consolidate themselves into a single druidic faction. There is literally no difference between the Cenarion Circle and the Earthen Ring, except some vague faction allegiance.
You'd think the druids and shaman would get together and form a non-factionist collective, since they agree on virtually everything and individuals of both groups are supposed to value the living world more than petty politics.

Not going to lie, a mediating force between both the Alliance and the New Horde would be very helpful for the political state of Azeroth, especially for a lot of the minor regional species and governments that are basically forced into either joining the Alliance/New Horde or getting their shit wrecked by both and losing all power.
Not to mention, the creation of an actual forum for the two powers to actual communicate, rather than have a mishmash of negotiations like they usually have would be very beneficial to cooling relations between the two.
The only groups I can see actually trying to do that though are either the Earthen Ring, the Cenarion Circle or the Zandalari Trolls (and they're out now with their capital gone).
So peace talks in current WoW rely on a bunch of hippies (Says the Shaman).
