Hello! It’s always lovely to see interest! The Horde is definitely a flavor - each race is incredibly unique, held together by a the need to survive together in a world that they don’t quite fit in. Be it Orcs who once invaded Azeroth and the Tauren and Trolls who swore themselves as their allies, Undead who were risen by the Lich King, Blood Elves who sold themselves to the fel or siphoned the Light from a captive Naaru in a bid to satisfy power… there’s a whole host of interesting cultures and angles you can come from! I highly recommend doing the Orc Heritage quest, as it’s actually really comparative to the recent Draenei heritage quest and helps really flesh out the Orcish culture!
Comparatively, we’re a smaller community - but growing! There is less emphasis on walk up rp and more focus on creating long-term stories within and among the guilds. The largest of these are War Wolves, Stormtalon Tribe and Undercity Nexus. They’ve also come together with Spearskull and other guilds to create The Horde Vanguard, which is a community where we can get together and intermingle socially and through small events and campaigns, such as the upcoming Hatred’s Wake campaign.
To find us, here’s a link to our forum post, which also has information and our discord. I encourage you to reach out to us! We are our there in the world and we’d love to meet you!
