Factions of Wow

For the lore buffs out there is there a faction aside from the horde and alliance in which paladins priests death knights and warlocks would work together? Or paladin priest druid and death knight? Trying to justify my warband and make it something other than alliance or horde themed.

Argent Crusade… at least as far as I’m aware.

IIRC their lore about recruitment basically boils down to… “So, you want to fight the Scourge? Wonderful here’s a tabard. Next!”

That’s true! I forgot about that. Are there any others that you can think of? I was thinking Valarjar but wasn’t 100% on that one.

Valarjar are kind of a mixed bag. Simply put they are Sworn to service to Odyn and frankly he’s basically garbage… What he did to Helya was wrong. Links below if your looking for more info.

Note: I’m assuming you are looking for a “good” faction. I’m not opposed to helping you find a “evil” faction if you like.

You’re (presumably) adventurers. You shouldn’t need more justification than that.

Good or evil as long as my warband can have matching uniforms lol but my issue is I can’t make sense of why a dk or warlock would be with certain good factions alongside a holy paladin and a holy priest.

How about family. Assuming they are all the same race, they could be brothers and sisters. Your DK was a warrior, died in Northrend, and was risen. When he got his freedom, he remembered enough to return home and your family has welcomed him back.

To add a bit to the post above this one, interpersonal relationships in general should supersede political affiliations. If your Warband characters have a strong enough bond with each other, little else about them should matter much as far as that relationship is concerned.

My two mains are holy paladin and holy priest but I’m somehow trying to work in my dk for sure and either a warlock or a worgen resto druid. I just can’t think of a faction where they would work together aside from alliance or argent crusade. I was doing a scarlet crusade/onslaught theme for a bit but didn’t really make sense lore wise. I know the scarlet onslaught deathknights were willingly turned and was trying to come up with a way my dk would try to get back into the regular scarlet crusade since he was a warrior/hero once. Ideally I like the transmogs of my warband to match with a tabard representing a faction and still match the lore of being part of that faction.

Not just the Scourge, they made an attempt on the Burning Legion on the Broken Shore as well, remember?

I’d go so far as to think they’d go after any big bad currently assaulting Azeroth and that they’re just under utilized by Blizz.

At least, that’s what the bulk of Argent Crusade roleplay guilds do.
