Wrath of the Blood God is a single-player WarCraft 3 campaign. It is being made solely by me. Its goal is to recreate the feeling of classic WarCraft campaigns and take a closer look at one of the oldest races of Azeroth - Trolls.
The campaign is set in times long before the events of WarCraft I, II and III. Long ago, trolls were one of the most powerful races of Kalimdor. They ruled mighty empires - Amani empire of forest trolls, Gurubashi empire of jungle trolls and Zul'Drak - smaller empire of ice trolls in the far north. The mighty empires did not have a great affection towards each other, yet there were only a few wars between them. They mostly fought the Qiraji. An insectoid race determined to destroy all other inhabitants of the world. During the centuries of wars, the trolls managed a great victory and splitted the Qiraji empire into two - Ahn'Qiraj and Azjol'Nerub.
Then came hard times. The Sundering happened and the world was torn into three continents. The Amani and Drakkari empires managed to pull through this disastrous event relatively well. The once mighty Gurubashi empire ended up much worse. Losing almost half of its territory along with mighty city of Zul'Farak, it fell into a state of crisis. Its inhabitants are stuck in the past, longing after the power they once had. Great discontent is clearly visible throughout the empire. Old hatreds between tribes of the realm are starting to surface once again. And right on the border is now much more powerful and unpredictable Amani empire. Despite of all the misfortune, the strongest tribe of the empire - the Gurubashi tribe - still barely manages to hold the realm together.
However in times of crisis such as this, the weaker minds quickly fall for the promise of great and easily attainable power, without realizing its true cost...
The main character of the campaign is Rin'ji - a skilled Voodo Hunter and leader of the Bladedancer tribe. Altough it is a forest troll tribe, it doesn't owe allegiance to the Amani empire, but to Zandalar tribe. It is one of the oldest tribes, second only to Zandalari. It's named after its founder - legendary Zul'Khar the Bladedancer. Warriors of the Bladedancer tribe are feared and respected among all trolls. They reside on the Zandalar island.
Zandalar tribe is the progenitor tribe from which all other troll tribes sprang. Its home is the island Zandalar. Zandalari now serve as lorekeepers and priests, rarely leaving the island. Members of this tribe have grey skin and are taller than most of other trolls. Even though they do not interfere with internal affairs of the troll empires, they keep a silent watch over them. In case of great emergency, they send the Bladedancer tribe to act as their will.
