Yeah. In my opinion giants of Draenor are such races as ogres, ogre lords, gronn and colossi. Personally, I think that ogres are evolution of stone giants. They may have been affected by something like curse of the flesh, but most likely it was just evolution. Jus compare the ogres and mountain giants. They have some similarities.

I made a small article about them on FoD site. Its in the page Other races.

Gul'dan raised a volcano in Shadowmoon Valley. You can see it as a tall mountain under the first half of the word Shadowmoon.
Yes I am. You see a guy once showed me a terrain template of Draenor. I was shocked how bad it is, and sworn to make a good template. How I had a problem of making the map look like Outland and Draenor. So eventually it became a map.

Yeah, I have such idea. Thanks to this map I found out the existance of Apexis Fields, Frostwolf Mountains and the fact that Nagrand is isolated from the wolrd by the mountains surrounding it.

It is interesting merging Draenor and Outland, because you use logic and fantasy to create Draenor.

Im also going to make a map of corrupted Draenor soon. It will have Hellfire Peninsula and Corrupted Shadowmoon Valley. Plus Black Temple and Hellfire Citadel.

I know. When I was making story for my campaign I always had to add more and more. I was forced to divide my campaign in at least 3 or 4 parts depending of will I include pandaria.

@Phoonix he Alagremm is making Warcraft 3 mod about Dreanor before destruction.

Eek! No! Squak! For Terokk!

Man, I found out and understood so much lore about Draenor... for example in my theory ogres originate from colossi(mountain giants) and sporelings were created only after the shattering of Draenor.

I have a theory! According to it, Draenor is Old God infested.
It is inhabited by Old God of Shadow who was imprisoned by the Titans, most likely after the ordering of Draenor. This also explains why are there colossi in the world.

Another thing that proves it are the arakkoa. Where do they get their shadow powers from? There can only be one answer. Also, I suspect that Terokk is actually manifestation of that Old God. We all know that the great first ancient civilization of arakkoa called Apexis has fallen whe their golems-colossi turned on their master. Why did they suddenly turn on them? There is only one such force of corruption. Also, Sethekk are said to serve an unknown master of amazing powers and Dark Conclave was actually summoning that Old God in Shadowmoon Valley before the First War.

One of my last arguments are ogres. If we look at the ogres and gronns from whom they originated we ca notice many calcium and other stone on their skin, which was completely gone in ogres. But the shape and size of ogres show stunning resemblance to colossi otherwise known as Draenor mountain giants. We already know a force in Azeroth that has turned many stone and metal beings in bilogical formes using Curse of Flesh.
The last thing that proves the Old God presence is the fact that Draenor is connected to Azeroth's Emerald Dream and the Elemental Plane. There is even a Firelord in Draenor, who must be the alternative of Ragnaros.

From all those facts you can understand that there is an Old God in Draenor. Old God of Shadow.

Answer to all strange in Waracfta is Old God.

For example:Hakkar and rest of Troll gods, Emerald Dream thing, Naga thing, Sargeras thing, Deathwing thing, Aszhara thing, Gnome and dwarves having flesh and not being robots (This bugs me because Old Gods control elementals so why change earth based creatures to "non-elemental")...I'll think of more latter.

Well they are the smartest race of Draenor. They can learn a language from zero in a few minutes and in a few hours speak it perfectly! I really dont understand why with such high intellect they are so technologically inadvanced and believe in Terokk's might?

Also, you know what proves my theory? The Dark Portal was mostl ikely part of the universal Old God plan. They wanted their brother from raenor help them. Old Gods in Azeroth influenced Sargeras and Medivh to open the portal. It all was part of their plan to be freed! Who knows, maybe even destruction of Draenor was actually planned by the Old Gods to free that Old God!

Plus as I said, those worlds are binded! Emerald Dream and Elemental Plane can be accesed from Draenor!
