Stormwind is the faction associated with Stormwind City, the capital of the humans. It is located in the northwestern part of Elwynn Forest. Formerly ruled by the young child king Anduin Wrynn (with the help of Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, the former regent, and Lady Katrana Prestor), it is now ruled over by King Varian Wrynn who returned during the time of the Lich King. The city was named for the occasional sudden squalls created by a ley line pattern in the mountains around the glorious city.
History
During the First War, the Kingdom of Azeroth, including its capital, Stormwind Keep, was utterly destroyed by the Horde and its survivors fled to Lordaeron. After the orcs were defeated at the Dark Portal at the end of the Second War, it was decided that the city would be rebuilt, even surpassing its former grandeur. The nobles of Stormwind assembled a team of the most skilled and ingenious stonemasons and architects they could find. Under their direction, Stormwind was rebuilt in an amazingly short period of time. Now, at the end of the Third War, in the renamed Kingdom of Stormwind, it stands as one of the last bastions of human power left in the world.
With the fall of the northern kingdoms, Stormwind is by far the most populated city in the world. Boasting a population of two-hundred thousand people (predominantly human), it serves in many ways as the cultural and trade center of the Alliance, even with remote access to the sea. The humans living in the city are generally carefree and artistic, favoring light and colorful clothes, cuisine and art.
Reputation
Clavicus Knavingham has the repeatable cloth quests to achieve a higher reputation with Stormwind. In return for exalted reputation, non-human players are able to ride horses.
Most quests associated with Stormwind come from the surrounding areas of Elwynn Forest, Westfall, and Redridge Mountains.
