The Draenei are an honorable race of uncorrupted Eredar that escaped the grasp of the Burning Legion. The race has been forever thankful to the savior, the prophet Velen - who gained his favor from Naaru. From Velen's divinity the Draenei gained the influence of holy light and high morals. The Draenei have utilized their power using their natural strength in physical power and magical essences, along with holy magic. Though the numbers of the Draenei are not as respectable as many of the other races on Azeroth, they still are one of the strongest the Alliance has.

 Dalaran, one of the seven human kingdoms, but the only with an immense manipulation over the magic and the arcane arts. The race has long been the foundation for some of the most powerful mages; thus giving it the reputation as a cesspool of knowledge and study. From their knowledge the mages can bring forth spells of devastating magics; capable of destroying whole armies. Or they can use their mana to save countless lives and repel any enemy that threatens their precious libraries and magic holds. Even with the most advanced in Arcane arts, the people of Dalaran failed to halt the onslaught from Arthas and the Undead Scourge; resulting in summoning of the Burning Legion and the Dalaran's untimely demise. But now Dalaran was remade into a floating fortress glistening with mana and life. Initial DefenseStrongest UnitsWeaknesses[Rainbow]

 The Lost Ones are the twisted and altered version of the Draenei. After much of their people retreated from Outland the Lost Ones have been struggling for survival from the rampaging Fel horde. Now accustomed to the new lifestyle and combat the Lost Ones rely on stealth and foresight to guide them in battle. Much of their race have mastered the art of stealth, allowing them to be unseen by the naked eye, then deliver deadly strikes for a quick kill. Though frail by nature, the Lost Ones have studied and employed the healing arts with some psychic manipulation to turn tides of battle, along side stealth. The Arakkoa are an ancient bird-like race that has it's roots in the Outland. They wield many forms of war, ranging from fighting with blades to using mighty arcane magics to achieve victory. These humanoids, just like the Lost Ones, are being hunted by the raging Fel Horde who stop at nothing but their own deaths to kill anyone who their master commands to destroy. To increase the chances for both the races to survive the constant assaults and slaughter from the Fel Horde, the Arakkoa and the Lost Ones established an alliance; now providing both stealth, strength, and magic to the field.

 The High Elves, or the Quel'dori are an ancient race of elves with a thirst for magic. They obtain their powers from the magical Sunwells, which they hold sacred and guard heavily. Their race used to be just like the Night Elves, but just as the Night Elves have accepted the ways of safeguarding the forests, the Highborne accepted the powers of the Sunwell. During the War of the Ancients, the Highborne betrayed their brethren, and were exiled from the Night Elven lands. The High Elves use a combination of melee, ranged, and magic to bring the fight to the enemy. Through casting holy and arcanic magics the strength of these elves stays steady alongside their battle-ready front-line troops, who are willing to lay down their lives for the Sunwell and their kingdom.

 The Fel Horde are a race of raging Orcs, beasts, and Demons who were servants to the Burning Legion. The race were once a honorable and courageous bands of clans; but, once the Burning Legion was introduced to their homeland, Draenor, the fate of the Orcs began to change. With the blood of demons and dark sorcery, the Orc clans were twisted and enraged into red-skinned demonic slaves. These Orcs utilize their rage and dark magic to break through even the best defenses. They have captured and enslaved numerous beasts abide the will of their lords, and the beasts do their duties well as they shred and tear apart enemies. The Fel Horde tried to invade the world of Azeroth, but failed and thus became forsaken by their masters; also, resulted in their world of Draenor to be broken apart.

 The Scarlet Crusaders were officially formed when their beloved homeland of Lordaeron was ransacked by the plague and Undead Invasion. Many of the Paladins fought bravely, but the wave after wave of undead was too much even for even the holy light to handle. The Scarlet Crusaders live in constant battlement with the Undead, their only source of still surviving in the dire time was the blessings of Paladins and intense wits. The warriors bear heavy armor and weaponry, while the mages call on the Divine spirits to guide the battle. Overall, the Crusaders fight zealously to avenge their unfortunate homeland, and they will not stop with their quest until their final breath.

 The Dark Iron Clan is a highly isolated group of Dwarves that still hold deep hatred for their Ironforge brethren. After the War of the Three Hammers was lost, the Dark Iron Dwarves retreated back deep into the underground; where the Ragnaros the Firelord was awaken. Ragnaros enslaved the frail dwarves, forcing them to do all his bidding, and forcing them to live with his fiery minions running rampant. The Dark Iron Clan though not nearly as mighty or fortunate as the Ironforge and Wildhammer brethern, have developed a keen skill in subterfuge, dark magic, and assassination; yet they still retain their natural ingenuity for mechanics and stonework.

 The Forsaken are a faction of the dead minions of Arthas' and the Lich King who have broken free of their mind control, then begun to serve the Banshee Queen, who gathered the stranded and feral undead, and gave them purpose: to seek revenge against Arthas. The Forsaken took control of the Plaguelands, and even established the capital building's catacombs into a thriving civilization. In order to ensure the survival and the continuity of her people, Lady Sylvanas made an uneasy alliance with the Horde. With dark magics, undying might, and alchemy, the Forsaken are a terrifying foe to face as they fight to their last remains; stopping at nothing to get their revenge.

 The worgen threat was contained for millennia, until Archmage Arugal managed to pull the wolf-beasts from the Dream. Summoned by order of King Genn Greymane, the worgen were used to battle Scourge forces encroaching on the kingdom of Gilneas. Yet the feral creatures soon spread their curse throughout the human population of Silverpine Forest, infecting Gilnean soldiers stationed beyond the Greymane Wall. Before long the affliction had advanced through the legendary barrier and was gradually eating away at Gilneas’s humanity. As reports of strange attacks and disappearances rose, fear took root in the hearts of Genn’s people. Not long ago the curse’s spread was stifled, but the victory proved short-lived. Now, at a time when Gilneas is still recovering from a civil war, the curse has returned with renewed fervor. To compound the worgen threat, the Forsaken are battering at the nation’s gates in a bid to conquer Gilneas. Unbeknownst to many of the kingdom’s citizens, a war between beast and man is also raging within the worgen themselves. Whether or not balance can be restored to these cursed Gilneans before the entirety of Genn’s kingdom loses its humanity is uncertain. Initial DefenseStrongest UnitsWeaknesses[Rainbow]
