Marshal Expeditions[3][4] is an expedition troupe that is led by the human Marshal brothers: Williden and Hol'anyee. They are slightly affiliated with the Steamwheedle Cartel, most especifically Gadgetzan[5].
History
Failure at Un'Goro Crater
Williden's latest and greatest endeavor was not fully prepared for everything, having underestimating the savagery of Un'Goro Crater, and ended sooner than they wished.[2] A mangled journal found among the beasts of Un'Goro shows that he and his companions sought higher ground from the savage beasts of the Crater once their base camps were overrun, making their escape at Marshal's Refuge.[6]
They ask adventurers to help recover a [Crate of Foodstuffs] and [Research Equipment] they had to leave behind in their base camps in order to escape the beasts of Un'goro Crater.[2]
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm
Their refuge was attacked by Stone Guardians, forcing the troupe to flee and find another shelter with a small number of casualities[7]. Now, Williden Marshal and his team have built a new camp for them, Marshal's Stand, which has some improvements when compared to their old refuge, indicating that they are managing to adapt themselves to live at Un'Goro Crater.
