Culture

Memory and estrangement coexist in Forsaken society. Apothecary research, military service and the search for a place in the world offer very different answers to the same question: what can life after death become?

Origins and homeland

Tirisfal Glades preserves the remains of a fallen human kingdom. Beneath the ruined capital lies Undercity, a stronghold whose underground halls reflect the separation between its inhabitants and much of the living world.

Starting journey

The ordinary introduction begins in Deathknell and continues through Tirisfal Glades. Race-specific abilities are presented from this historical dataset. Death Knight has a different starting campaign even when the character is also Undead.
