They are rebuilding the elven capital in Quel’Thalas and have a thirst for both magic and power. The Blood Elves, on the other hand, have come to do anything they can to stop the the Draenei and have little trust for either the Horde or Alliance. However, the Blood Elves sabotaged their ship and they crashed onto Azeroth and must pick up the pieces and go out in search of more allies.

The Draenei are from Outland and having heard of the defeat of the Burning Legion by the forces on Azeroth, they have taken their ship, the Exodar, to Azeroth in search of help defeating the Legion in Outland. Two new races enter the world of Azeroth in this expansion – the Blood Elves and the Draenei. The Portal is only open to characters level 58 and higher.

This new land is filled with danger and adventure for those brave enough to enter the Portal. After years of rebuilding following the Burning Legion’s defeat, the Horde and Alliance open the Dark Portal and enter Outland. The Burning Crusade, the first expansion pack for World of Warcraft, adds new story elements.
