The following guide is an outline to a few of the early level Rogue quests. While not a complete walkthrough since I have not played all of the quests, it should provide enough information for you to get through the quest with little to no frustration. This guide will be split into a few main parts. The three prominent parts are the "Alliance", "Horde", and "Both". They will then be subcategorized by race and level. The "Both" category will be subcategorized by level only. This guide contains spoilers, so don't read it if you don't want to know what happens before you finish the quest.

First Class Quest

Your first class quest, no matter which race you are, will consist of bringing an "Encrypted (insert name depending on race)" to the nearest Rogue Trainer. The quest-giver will give you a general location, such as a town name or area, and it's up to you to find it. Once finished, you will receive 5-40 experience depending on your race and be able to train new abilities as long as you are the proper level and have enough money. The quests are then divided up by race.

Horde

Undead

Mennet Carkad

Level 10 Quest. Speak with Marion Call, the rogue trainer in Brill (upstairs at the inn). You will be instructed to speak with Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. You earn 210xp from this quest. This leads to the level 13 quest called "The Deathstalkers".

The Deathstalkers

Level 13 Quest. This quest is broken into four stages of running around the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity.

1. Speak with Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. Ask an Abomination for directions to the rogue trainer; he standing out front of the building. You are instructed to acquire  [Astor's Letter of Introduction]. Astor Hadren (level 13) walks back and forth along the road between the Undercity and the Sepulcher, pausing at each end. You must first speak to him, at which point he will become aggressive and you must kill him for the letter. If you want to try this quest at level 10, make sure to bring a friend or two! Once you've killed him, return the letter to Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter. You will receive a little XP.
   Note: Hadren is aggressive towards any Alliance players he sees and will attack them on sight, regardless of level. If Hadren dies before you can kill him, he respawns a few minutes later near the Sepulcher.
2. Speak with Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. Mennet gives you Astor's Letter of Introduction to deliver to Andron Gant, in the Apothecarium. He is in the plaza nearest the Rogues' Quarter, where Mages do their quest for their robe. The quest is considered "complete", so look for the gold dot on your minimap. You will receive a little XP.
3. Speak with Andron Gant in the Apothecarium of the Undercity. Andron instructs you to get  [Andron's Ledger] from the bookshelf behind him and deliver it back to your "mutual acquaintances". Instead, bring it back to Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter. You will receive a little XP.
4. Give Mennet Carkad the ledger. He will tell you to deliver the good news to Varimathras in person and welcomes you into the Deathstalkers. Seek Varimathras in the Royal Quarter (ask for directions to the Battlemaster). He will reward you with 900 XP and a [Blade of Cunning].

Find the Shattered Hand

Level 16 Quest. Speak with Mennet Carkad the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. You are instructed to journey to Orgrimmar and speak with Shenthul at the Cleft of Shadow. This leads to the Orc quest "Zando'zan", which is the Horde Lockpicking quest.

Fenwick Thatros

Level 16 Quest. Speak with Mennet Carkad the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. You are instructed to kill Fenwick Thatros. You are instructed that Thatros can be found near the decrepit dock on Lordamere in Silverpine Forest. You will receive 875 XP. This quest leads to the level 20 quest "Tools of the Trade".

Tools of the Trade

Level 20 Quest. Speak with Mennet Carkad in the Rogues' Quarter of the Undercity. Objective: Find the Dalaran Status Report. You can find it amongst the Dalaran Wizards of Korin Tor at Ambermill in the Silverpine Forest. Coordinates: 63, 64. The wizards are level 19 & 20. The locked chest with the report is on the second floor in the back room of the house to the right as you enter the walled area of Ambermill. You will need to lock pick the chest. You will receive 1550 XP

Trolls

At level 16, your trainer will give you a quest to go to the Rogue Trainer in the Cleft of Shadow in Orgrimmar. There, you must learn the Lockpicking skill, and you will be sent to Ratchet. Once there, you will receive a Quest to sneak onto the pirates' boat south of Ratchet. Grab the two items that the quest giver tells you to from the nearby robot, and head south to the boat along the coast (you can't miss it). Enter it by walking along the spike on the ship's front. Once inside, there is a room full of locked chests on the first floor of the ship. You can grind up your skill to 80 (chests remain green at 100) on these chests (they respawn after you pick them, and they are all empty). After doing so, descend further into the boat. There will be a singular chest in the back of the bottom floor. Open it. A large parrot will spawn nearby and start coming towards you. Feed it the cracker you were given when you took the quest. This will allow you to fight it. He will drop the treasure you need for your quest. Return it to Ratchet for your reward, a stack of  [Thistle Tea].

Blood Elves

Find Keltus Darkleaf

Level 10 Quest. Speak with Zelanis, the rogue trainer in Silvermoon City (in murder row). You will be instructed to Locate Keltus Darkleaf and return his reports to Zelanis. Keltus Darkleaf is located in Ghostlands at 33,11 watching the Night Elves. He gives you a quest to pickpocket the Leader of the Night Elves before he hands over his reports. You will receive about 175 XP and a [Blade of Cunning] for completing this quest chain.

Horde and Alliance

The Manor, Ravenholdt

At level 24, the rogue trainers will give you a letter containing a Seal of Ravenholdt. The letter instructs you to find the Manor Ravenholdt, which is hidden in the hills of northeastern Hillsbrad. If you make your way to the tunnel, you will see a chest that appears like it can be opened. Your Detect Traps ability will warn you not to open the chest if you get near it. Walk up to the chest but do not open it - you will get the "Rite of Cunning - Complete" message. Proceed through the tunnel and talk to Fahrad.

At map coordinates 75,22 there is the beginning of a path that leads to the manor. For those of your without map mods: If you head straight east from Tarren Mill you should end up at the path, you just have to pay attention to your mini map.

Syndicate Emblems

If you complete "The Manor, Ravenholdt", any Ravenholdt guard will give you a quest to collect Syndicate Badges, which can only be obtained by pickpocketing them from Syndicate mobs (in Hillsbrad, Alterac, or Arathi Highlands). The badges can be turned in to the guards outside the tunnel. Turning in 30 badges (one at a time) will gain Friendly reputation with Ravenholdt (250 rep each). Much later in your Rogue career, you can then turn in Heavy Junkboxes (which can be pickpocketed off mobs in the 50-60 range) 5 at a time to further gain rep (+50) with Ravenholdt as well as a mediocre throwing knife reward. As of now there are no reputation rewards from the Ravenholdt Assassins' League. There is a supply NPC in the Manor, though, who sells a limited supply Engineering Schematic (the  [Gnomish Cloaking Device] which can only be obtained here. Anyone can purchase it, of course, but few people know where the Manor is, so a shady dealer such as yourself can perhaps make a profit.

A Simple Request

At level 50, a rogue trainer in any main city will send you to see Lord Jorach Ravenholdt, who then sends you to Archmage Xylem in Azshara. This quest series culminates in  [52D] The Azure Key and gives a choice of several decent blue item rewards.

Part of the quest line involves retrieving an item from a Timbermaw Shaman. If you don't mind destroying your Timbermaw Hold reputation, then go ahead and kill them for the drop - but if you value your Furbolg rep, try to get the item via pickpocketing. This may draw aggro if it is resisted, but if you run rather than fight it will not damage your reputation.
