Culture

The Earth Mother, ancestral memory and respect for the natural world shape spiritual life. Hunting and physical courage stand alongside a preference for harmony rather than conquest for its own sake.

Origins and homeland

Mulgore is a landscape of open grassland beneath tall mesas. Thunder Bluff rises above it as a meeting place and refuge, linking the routines of the plains with the shared life of the tribes.

Starting journey

The ordinary starting route begins at Camp Narache on Red Cloud Mesa before opening onto Mulgore. The classes and racial abilities listed here are those of the selected patch. Death Knight begins with a separate introduction.
