U N D E A D (Forsaken)
Bound to the iron will of the tyrant Lich King, the vast undead armies of the
Scourge seek to eradicate all life on Azeroth. Led by the banshee Sylvanas
Windrunner, one group of undead broke away from the Scourge and freed
themselves of the Lich King’s domination. These renegades call themselves
the Forsaken. They fight a constant battle not only to retain their freedom
from the Scourge, but also to exterminate those who would hunt them as
monsters.
With Sylvanas as their banshee queen, the Forsaken have built a dark
stronghold beneath the ruins of Lordaeron’s former capital city. This hidden
‘Undercity’ forms a sprawling labyrinth that stretches beneath the haunted
woods of the Tirisfal Glades. From this bastion, the Forsaken wage an
unending battle against the Scourge as well as the remaining humans who
still seek to reclaim their lands. For though the very land is cursed, the
zealous humans of the Scarlet Crusade cling to their scattered holdings,
obsessed with eradicating the undead and retaking their once-beautiful
homeland.
Convinced that the primitive races of the Horde can help them achieve
victory over their enemies, the Forsaken have entered an alliance of
convenience with the savage orcs and the proud tauren. Harboring no true
loyalty for their new allies, they will go to any lengths to ensure their dark
plans come to fruition.
As one of the Forsaken, you must eliminate any who pose a threat to the
new order – be they human, undead, or otherwise.
UNDERCITY
Far beneath the ruined capital city of Lordaeron, the royal crypts have been
turned into a bastion of evil and undeath. Arthas originally intended the
Undercity to be the Scourge’s seat of power, but the budding city was
abandoned when he was recalled to aid the Lich King in distant Northrend.
In Arthas' absence, the Dark Lady, Sylvanas Windrunner, led the rebel
Forsaken to the Undercity and claimed it for her own. Since taking up
residence, the Forsaken have worked to complete the Undercity’s
construction by dredging out the twisted maze of catacombs, tombs, and
dungeons that Arthas began.
