Death Knight!

Subject: Death Knight! Fri Dec 26, 2008 1:17 pm

Hello hello! Merry Christmas to all! And/or Happy Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/whatever you celebrate!

Now on to why this was posted in this section: For Christmas I received my copy of Wrath of the Lich King! I created my Death Knight as soon as I upgraded my account, and managed to snap a few shots in between slaughtering innocents! I won't dump all of them, but I will post a few choice ones! Enjoy!

Me standing next to the Lich King himself!

Blood rains from the skies of the Eastern Plaguelands as the battle for Light's Hope chapel draws to an epic close while Highlord Trion Fordring calls out for Arthas' life!

I GOT TO RIDE A DRAGON AND RAEP ME SOME CRUSADERS!

There are LOADS of more pictures, but I decided to post too many. These are just a taste!

That's a frost wyrm from wc3 right?
And am I correct in assuming that WoW is actually the continuation of the story from wc3: tft?

Yeah, it does. The story involving WoW exists a few years after the story in WC3. As of now the King of Stormwind has actually returned to his throne, which is cool. Thrall is ruling, and the Lich King is desperately fighting for the survival of his dark campaign, and Malygos is pissed at the world, and you have to kill him Y_Y

However, that is a grown up Frost Wyrm, a vanquisher. Though if you bought the collector's edition of WotLK, you could get one as a pet.

Is there a way I could just...read? the entire history without paying for something? D:

cool pics, looks and sounds like a pretty decent expansion pack.

As for the story forz.
I stumbled across these links in another thread so did a quick copy-paste for you.

WoWWiki - as others have mentioned, it contains pages and pages of detailed history.

http://lore.dramatis-personae.com/timeline.php
Dramatis Personae - short guide about races and the WoW timeline. I linked the timeline here but the Races info is on the left.

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/encyclopedia/index.xml
The Warcraft Encyclopaedia - it's incomplete but it's very handy.

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/story/index.html#a
History of Warcraft - WoW's official timeline, story divided into chapters, and a link to the RPG books.

There are books scattered all throughout azeroth that tell the story, no doubt with some lurking you can find a page like Snares did with all the story.

I've always enjoyed the storyline of Warcraft, so that was what initially drew me into WoW.... It's pretty amazing. Not as captivating as Warhammer 40k though, I'm too much of a Sci-Fi geek!
