Nearly twenty-five
thousand years ago, the eredar race arose on the world of Argus.
They were extremely intelligent and had a natural affinity for magic
in all its myriad forms. Using their gifts, they developed a vast
and wondrous society.
Unfortunately the eredar's accomplishments caught the attention of
Sargeras, the Destroyer of Worlds. He had already begun his Burning
Crusade to eradicate all life from the cosmos, and he believed that
the brilliant eredar would be pivotal in leading the vast demonic
army he was gathering. Thus, he contacted the eredar's three most
prominent leaders: Kil'jaeden, Archimonde, and Velen. In exchange
for the loyalty of the eredar race, Sargeras offered untold power
and knowledge.
Although the offer sounded very tempting, Velen had a vision of the
future that filled him with sick dread. Sargeras had spoken the
truth: the eredar who joined the Dark Titan would indeed gain
enormous power and knowledge. However, the eredar would themselves
be transformed into demons.
Velen saw the Legion in all its terrible might and witnessed the
destruction it would wreak upon all of creation. He hastened to warn
Kil'jaeden and Archimonde, but they dismissed his concerns, for they
had been enticed by Sargeras' promises. They gave Sargeras their
allegiance and were transformed into colossal beings of depthless
evil.
The sheer power that Sargeras commanded made direct opposition
unthinkable. Velen nearly despaired, but his prayer for help was
overheard. A being came to Velen and explained that it was one of
the naaru, a race of sentient energy beings bent on stopping the
Burning Crusade. The naaru offered to take Velen and any other
like-minded eredar to safety.
Deeply relieved, Velen gathered the other eredar who had thus far
refused to join Sargeras. Naming themselves the draenei, or "exiled
ones" in the Eredun language, the renegades barely escaped from
Argus, with the Burning Legion only moments behind. Kil'jaeden was
furious with what he felt was Velen's betrayal, and the demon vowed
to hunt Velen and the rest of the draenei to the ends of the cosmos
if need be.
The Legion chased the draenei for many thousands of years. The
draenei visited many worlds and explored much of the known cosmos in
their quest to find safe harbor. Still the Legion would not give up
its pursuit. Meanwhile, the enigmatic naaru race blessed the draenei
with Light-given knowledge and power. The naaru explained that there
were other forces in the cosmos that would stand against the Burning
Legion. One day the naaru would forge them into a single unstoppable
army of the Light. Deeply affected by the naaru's words, the draenei
vowed to honor the Light and uphold the naaru's altruistic ideals.
At last Velen and his draenei settled upon a remote and peaceful
world that seemed an ideal refuge. They named it Draenor, or
"Exiles' Refuge", and there they quietly cultivated their society
once again. Ever wary of being discovered again by Kil'jaeden's
forces, Velen and his mystics kept their magics hidden for
generations.
In time the draenei met and befriended the shamanistic orc clans
that already lived in the tranquil southern grasslands of Nagrand.
Aside from engaging in some limited trade, the draenei and orcs
regarded one another with respect but kept mostly to themselves.
In spite of the draenei's caution, Kil'jaeden discovered their
secret refuge on Draenor. He learned more of the world and its
inhabitants, and he grew intrigued by the mighty orc race. A plan
unfolded in his mind, and the demon lord began to laugh. He could
see precisely how to mold the orcs into the instrument of his wrath.
It was merely a matter of time and pressure.
And so Kil'jaeden began to corrupt the orcs, first through the
elderly shaman Ner'zhul, and then through his apprentice, Gul'dan.
The orc clans dedicated themselves to the art of war and joined to
form a single, murderous Horde. Even the wisest shaman learned
warlock magics and abandoned the teachings they had once revered.
Smoothly manipulated from a state of wary acceptance into blind rage
and bloodlust, the orcs attacked the draenei. This bloody conflict
lasted nearly eight years, but the orcs' triumph was inevitable. The
draenei were mighty due to their Light-given powers, but the
demon-maddened Horde was mightier still. The orcs killed over eighty
percent of the draenei race and sent the rest fleeing for safety to
the remote corners of the world.
Afterwards, draenei who had fought the Horde and survived found that
they had been affected by the fel energies wielded so freely by the
orc warlocks. These draenei have since mutated into lesser forms,
resulting in a series of subspecies. The Broken and the Lost Ones
(as seen above) are two such genetic offshoots. Their warped bodies
bear only a rough resemblance to the proud draenei they once were,
and quite a few have lost their grip on sanity.
