They literally do?
Did you miss WoD?

No, they don’t.
NPCs do, we have NPCs who tap into that magic. And that’s fine, NPCs are special in that regard, but there are no spells that the player can use that are taken from the Bleeding Hollow, or from the Shadowmoon Orcs, or from the Firelands.
NPCs are the exception to the rule. Not the rule itself.

Seeing there are entire realms of death with animals of their own, an Undead Druid could tap into that and use those forms. Or just use some rot and decay forms like for the tree form they can use the rot treants/ancients from the Azure Span. As they say, more than one way to skin a catfish.

If the class gets opened up to the Forsaken, then the answer is yes.
If you can create it…it’s the lore… even if it’s only the lore your character makes.

We don’t need to wait for Forsaken druids. Did people forget they can make Night elven druids that use the Darkfallen skin?
Admittedly I was fixated on them being Dark Rangers or Undead Hunters like Sylvannas.
It’s honestly amazing that you can’t read a wiki page. Here, let me help you.
Eye of Kilrogg is a level 22 warlock ability. Named for the great leader of the Bleeding Hollow clan, Kilrogg Deadeye, this spell is a variation on the summoning and necromantic magics used by the now vanquished warlocks and ogre magi of the Old Horde.[1]
It is named after Kilrogg Deadeye, but it’s a bog standard summoning ritual that creates a floating eye. Not some mystical blood ritual that comes from the Bleeding Hollow Clan. Hell, the first to actually use the spell weren’t even Orcs, they were Ogre Magi.
That’s right, the Ogres created the Eye of Kilrogg spell during the Second War, and the Warlocks from that point forward used a variation of it (but used the same name) for their own purposes. It has no ties to the Bleeding Hollow, or to blood magic, other than the name.

Except Kilrogg also had Eyes of Kilrogg in WoD so here we are.

Also it was removed but used to havw blood horror
And yet, the player spell is not blood magic.
You’re welcome for that educational lesson in how your own class functions.

It’s fine you can choose to wallow in self indulgent ignorance until the patch goes live
There is a mag’har thread where he was proven wrong.
All warlock magic currupts, even the non-fel baised ones.

Literally Ritssyn’s entire thing is that he was burned trying to master Ragnaros’s stuff. Shinfel was afflicted by Cho’gall’s magic (so Void).
It’s true that as the game has gone on warlocks have been pushed much more towards fel and not much else, but they do have other stuff too. Afflic and Destro can completely avoid having any demon-related spells entirely if they pick the right talents.

NPCs are the exception to the rule, they always have been. They will always have abilities that we don’t have, or more powerful versions of abilities that we do have.
Regardless, as far as canon lore is concerned, all warlock magic corrupts. Doesn’t matter where it’s pulled from. The manner in which it is cast, the way in which it is summoned, means it is a corruptive force. As Grom Hellscream said to Thrall when he was explaining the difference between how shamans used magic and how warlocks used magic:
“Isn’t magic magic?” Thrall, who had very little experience with magic in any form, wanted to know.
“Yes and no,” said Grom. “Sometimes the effect is the same. For instance, if a shaman was to summon lightning to strike his foes, they would be burned to death. If a warlock were to summon hell’s flames against an enemy, they would be burned to death.”
So magic is magic," said Thrall.
“But,” Grom continued, “lightning is a natural phenomenon. You call it by requesting it. With hell’s fire, you make a bargain. It costs a little of yourself.”
“But you said the shamans were disappearing. Doesn’t that mean the warlock’s way was better?”
“The warlock’s way was quicker,” said Grom. “More effective, or so it seemed. But there comes a time when a price must be paid, and sometimes it is dear indeed.”

I know forum avatars don’t matter, but it’s absolutely hilarious that a paladin is trying to explain warlock lore to a warlock.

Just because you play a class, doesn’t mean you know everything about it.
In this case, the only thing he really knows is his own headcanon on how he believes the class works. See his multiple claims that have been debunked in other threads and his arguments that Lightforged Warlocks can totally summon and bind demons with holy magic, even though that’s never been represented in game and comes from his religious myth.
And just to add on to this. This is my forum posting character. I have multiple warlocks (both Horde side and Alliance) as well as shamans, warriors, a single druid (least favourite class honestly), a monk, multiple rogues, a DK, a Demon Hunter and multiple regular hunters.
Basically I play every single class that’s in this game. What character I post on has no relevance to this discussion.
