| + | '''Bronze whelps''' are the small, intelligent children of the bronze dragonflight. Just a shade smaller than the children of the other flights, they learn to compensate with extreme speed — but this fact isn’t immediately apparent from looking at them. Bronze whelps are among the most patient of all living creatures, and on an initial encounter, they aren’t likely to move for several minutes unless threatened. At first, the dragon seems almost like a statue; its metallic scales gleam in the sunlight as if freshly polished. However, the strange, statuesque creature clearly watches, almost perfectly still except for its faintly glowing eyes. They are highly curious, observing anything they find interesting from a distance at first, and then from closer if necessary. They are friendly to humanoid races, but they may seem a bit distant or egotistical. |

| − | A [[Guardian of Tirisfal]] can understand and speak Eredun. He is not subject to the insanity such knowledge can cause to non-evil characters.{{Cite|S&L|46, 47}} |

||
| − | Eredun, the speech of the Burning Legion, is all but eradicated on Azeroth. It lives in the minds of cultists and those few brave enough to study it. It has a life of its own — its words writhe in the minds of those that know it, eating away sanity and morality. The demonic language of Eredun seemingly wants to be understood.{{Cite|WRPG|99, 104}} {{Cite|WoWRPG|131}} |

||
| + | ==Known== |
||
| − | In the World of Warcraft, the Burning Legion's Eredun language is known as "Demonic". It is not currently possible for players to learn this language, so anything spoken in it is indecipherable. However, the [[Warlock]] spell [[Curse of Tongues]] causes the target to temporarily speak in Demonic (Eredun). |

||
| − | *"Galtak Ered'nash!" ("All Hail the Burning Blade") may also be Eredun, but this questions the meaning of the name "eredar." It is not known if the name "eredar" has any sort of translation. "Ered" clearly has a specific meaning, as evidenced by "eredar," "ered'nash," and "[[ered'ruin]]." It is possible that it can be rendered as either "burning" or "corrupt", depending on context. |

| − | ===Words in "Demonic" (Eredun)=== |
||
| − | This is the list of words created by the in-game language parser for the Demonic language, and is listed as language number eight (word range 547-672) in the Language text file. It shares words from Titan, Draconic and Draenei language parsers, although with slight differences in the word lists in each. Draenei cannot understand "Demonic" (Eredun). |
||
| − | |||
| − | Note: The language algorithm used by the in-game "translator" merely makes the words look like "Demonic" (Eredun). It does not actually translate words. Therefore, translated in-game speech isn't true "Demonic" (Eredun). It is not certain if these words are true words in the Eredun language or not. |

Bronze whelps are the small, intelligent children of the bronze dragonflight. Just a shade smaller than the children of the other flights, they learn to compensate with extreme speed — but this fact isn’t immediately apparent from looking at them. Bronze whelps are among the most patient of all living creatures, and on an initial encounter, they aren’t likely to move for several minutes unless threatened. At first, the dragon seems almost like a statue; its metallic scales gleam in the sunlight as if freshly polished. However, the strange, statuesque creature clearly watches, almost perfectly still except for its faintly glowing eyes. They are highly curious, observing anything they find interesting from a distance at first, and then from closer if necessary. They are friendly to humanoid races, but they may seem a bit distant or egotistical.
A bronze whelp attempts to maneuver around its opponent to use its breath, staying as far away as possible. If seriously threatened, it uses defensive magic and retreats.
Bronze whelps speak Common and Draconic.[1]
Known
The only known bronze whelps seen in World of Warcraft are the Corrupted Bronze Whelps from Blackwing Lair.
