The Orcs are a savage, but noble, race from the planet Draenor who became corrupted by a demonic force known as the Burning Legion. Under the legion’s influence, the Orcish Horde slaughtered the Draenei, another race inhabiting Draenor, and then were led to the world of Azeroth. After two devastating wars, the Orcs were finally defeated on Azeroth, and rounded up into internment camps, until a young Orc named Thrall rallied them together, and finally broke the Horde free from demonic influence and helped them return to their shamanistic roots.
