In brief
World of Warcraft is the world's most popular pay-to-play Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game. Basically, you must fight enemies for the experience and rewards necessary to access more difficult levels where stronger, fiercer foes reside.
History
In 2004, Blizzard decided that it was time to conduct a reboot of the original series. The game quickly gained a large following, prompting Blizzard to make multiple expansions for the game, as well as making every type of merchandise imaginable.
Races
The Alliance
- Humans - A resillient race that is native to Azeroth.
- Dwarves - Short, stout creatures that inhabit the land of Khaz Modan.
- Gnomes - Though very similar to the drarves, the gnomes are tinkers rather than warriors.
- Night Elves - One of the oldest races of Azeroth, directly tied with the blood elves.
- Draenei (Burning Crusade) - The draenei are a species of powerful goat-like creatures.
- Worgen (Cataclysm) - A savage race of wolf-like creatures, said to have originated from an ancient druid sect which lost themselves to the feral behavior of their chosen shape-shift form.
The Horde
- Orcs - Once a peaceful shaman society corrupted by the Burning Legion, and used as pawns in the invasion of Azeroth. Thanks to the leadership of Thrall, the young warchief, they were able to recover their strength and honor, and move on to the creation of a new nation.
- Trolls - Strong hunters with orcish charactaristics. As you may expect, they turn into stone when defeated.
- Tauren - A nomadic tribe of humanoid bovines composed of shamans, hunters, and warriors.
- Undead - For the most part, they're your generic zombie/skeleton enemy, mindlessly bloodthirsty foes hostile towards anything living.
- Blood Elves (Burning Crusade) - A race composed of the former high elves that have renamed themselves in honor of their fallen comrades.
- Goblins (Cataclysm) - Small, green creatures with pointy features known for their high intelligence (and for a lack of common sense).
Classes
- Druid - A class with the unique ablity to transform into various things, including space chickens, kittens, trees, faster kittens, birds, and bare durids (which are 4 fite)
- Hunter - These guys have the ability to tame wild animals and use them in battle, which proves very useful during dangerous encounters.
- Mage - This class uses magic *snort snort* to perform powerful attacks, and even conjure up food and water.
- Paladin - The paladin are a jack-of-all-trades with the ability to play many different roles. As a result, this is one of the most powerful classes in the game.
- Priest - The masters of healing and protection, these are very desirable in any group because of their power and diversity.
- Rogue - This class specializes in melee attacks, and are very effective in pvp.
- Shaman - A very adept and versatile class, that rivals the mage in terms of magic wielding.
- Warlock - These former shaman have gone to using dark magic and, as a result, have gone to serving the Burning Legion.
- Warrior - Another class that, similar to the rogues, use melee attacks in battle. They are very strong and agile, and are very difficult to kill (depending on their specs).
- Death Knight (Wrath of the Lich King) - These are warrior lich that specialize in melee attacks and dark magic.
Expansions
- Burning Crusade - The lorelol expansion, this expansion featured draenei, more elf species, some guy yelling "YOU ARE NOT PREPARED", and some guy who repeatedly gets involved in "setbacks". This expansion was notorious for making the gear that took players thousands of hours to grind to get virtually useless within minutes of entering Outland.
- Wrath of the Lich King - Arthas finally become involved with this game, and players ventured into the continent of Northrend to defeat him. He ended up appearing in quest lines several times. For all we know, Kael'thas will make another comeback.
- Cataclysm - The universe suffers great destruction when Deathwing returns,several unlikely heros must join forces to destroy him once and for all.
- Mists of Pandora - Pandas were added along with a new character class, the monk. Various other additions, such as a new talent system and the revival of the horde vs. alliance gameplay, also came with the expansion.
Usage in poop
Comparitively, the usage of WoW footage in poop is seldom seen, but that doesn't mean that it isn't used. AKADarkie made the first WoW poop in June 2007, and made most of the WoW poops in the next year or so. After a while, other people started to make WoW poops. The most recent major source (The Cataclysm trailer) was pooped 4 times within a week of its release.
