Qit el-Remel's definitions

horde

1) Rampaging barbarians.
2) One of the two factions (the other being the Alliance) in World of Warcraft. Consists of three interesting tribal races, some annoyingly twee elves, and some creepy ghouls. Horde players are neither inherently more mature nor inherently more likely to gank. Commonly misjudged as the "evil" faction.
1) Watch out for the rampaging hordes of middle-schoolers.
2) No, the Horde are not "the bad guys." RTFM.

Ghost Howl

One of the biggest teases in World of Warcraft, at least as far as low-level Horde is concerned: A beautiful white dire wolf that can't be tamed by hunters and appears to be unusually tough. To be killed on sight by anyone passing through Mulgore, because he does drop a quest item and is really useless for anything else.
If I can't have Ghost Howl for my hunter alt's pet, I will have his pelt for a cape! (Spoken by a druid who later died twice before killing the mutt.)

alliance

1) People or groups that work together.
2) One of the two factions (the other being the Horde) in World of Warcraft. Consists of humans, three slightly original takes on classic fantasy races, and one genuinely original race. Alliance players are neither inherently less mature nor inherently less likely to gank. Commonly misjudged as the "good" faction.
1) Is there supposed to be an alliance between these nations in this story?
2) Don't believe anyone who claims that only kids play Alliance.

draenei

Pronounced "dra-nye" or "drah-nye." The only particularly interesting Alliance race in World of Warcraft. Tall and (usually) blue, with tails and cloven hooves. The males of the species look somewhat like Hellboy and have catfish barbels on their faces; the females are much slimmer, leggy, and have horns.

Notable for being the only Alliance race that can play as shamans, for being the only race in the game that can be either shamans or paladins, and for having an inherent healing ability.

Some slang terms are space-goat (from their hooves and a common misconception about their origin), squid-goat (from their hooves and the males' facial barbels), blueberry, and smurf.
Most of my Alliance characters are draenei. The rest of the races are kind of boring.

Paladin

A "holy knight"-type character in a roleplaying game, most notably Dungeons & Dragons and World of Warcraft. Usually has healing and damaging magic.

Must be lawful good in D&D.

In WoW, was originally only available to the Alliance; this changed with the release of the Burning Crusade.

Named for Charlemagne's inner circle of knights.
A blood elf paladin against a draenei shaman...now, that's epic!

Encyclopedia Dramatica

EncyclopediaDramatica.com is supposedly a Wikipedia parody. It tries to be funny, tries to be offensive, fails miserably at both, and succeeds only at being snotty.
Encyclopedia Dramatica consists mainly of the repeated use of rude words for shock value...rather like a twelve-year-old with more attitude than vocabulary.
