'''The Maul''' is a large pit located outside the three instance wings of [[Dire Maul]] in the middle of the [[Broken Commons]]. Like [[Gurubashi Arena]] in [[Stranglethorn Vale]], entering the Maul flags players for [[Player vs All|PVA]] and allows them to attack and kill other players in the Maul, regardless of faction. When a party is in the Maul, however, you cannot attack members of your party.
−
The '''Twilight's Hammer clan''' (a.k.a. '''Twilight's Hammer''', '''Hammer clan''', '''Twilight's Hammer cult''', or '''Twilight Cult''')<ref>{{quest|Unusual Activity}}</ref> refers to a single [[organization]]. It later expanded into a cult as the clan's surviving members and members of other races joined together.<ref name="HPG169">''[[Horde Player's Guide]]'', 169</ref> The Twilight Hammer's current members banded together to study Cho'Gall's teachings and form the current cult.<ref>''[[Dark Factions]]'', 163</ref> The organization is still considered a clan,<ref name="HPG169"/> but the true clan exists within the cult. The true clan members are not the cult's primary members nor do they make up most of the cult's membership.<ref>''[[Dark Factions]]'', 84</ref> The current Twilight's Hammer organization is a bit different than its original form. However, no matter which form the Twilight's Hammer has taken, it has always had the ultimate purpose of bringing about Armageddon to the worlds it inhabits, and will use various means to obtain this end.
 
   
  +
Players can enter the Maul either by simply dropping into it or by entering a doorway on the west side of the commons that takes them into a tunnel leading past packs of sleeping Gordok [[hyena|hyenas]] and finally to the fighting area. The tunnel is the only exit from the Maul. It may be most prudent to enter through the tunnel, since dropping down causes the player to take damage from falling and their opponent may attack them before they have recovered their health.
−
==History==
 
−
The history of the Twilight's Hammer clan begins with Cho'gall, the first ogre mage. Cho'gall was made the leader of an [[orc]] [[clan]] after its previous [[chieftain]] was executed for disobeying the [[Shadow Council]]. The clan's name was then changed to Twilight's Hammer; its original name and that of its former chieftain was stricken from all records. Under Cho'gall's leadership, the clan became increasingly nihilistic and eventually sought the destruction of all creation.<ref name="DF162"/>
 
   
−
===Second War===
 
−
Obsessed with the notion that the [[Horde (pre-Thrall)|Horde]] was the harbinger of apocalyptic doom to all the lands that it ravages, the Twilight's Hammer felt a sacrosanct gratification in the destruction of all that it encountered. Led by the cunning [[Ogre Mage]] [[Cho'gall]], the Twilight's Hammer had strong ties to [[Gul'dan]] and the [[Stormreaver clan]]. Its loyalty to the Horde was not as strong as its belief in its sacred mission of oblivion.<ref name="Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness manual 70">'' [[Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness]] manual'', pg. 70</ref>
 
−  
−
After coming to [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] the Twilight's Hammer clan, alongside with the [[Bleeding Hollow clan]] under the leadership of [[Kilrogg Deadeye]], led the [[orc]]ish forces in the first attack on [[Stormwind Keep]]. The battle went horribly, as the Horde had not expected such resilient persistence against them. The two clan leaders blamed each other. It is possible that Kilrogg Deadeye planned the attack on Stormwind in hopes of using it to get rid of a rival clan.
 
−  
−
Cho'gall survived the rise and fall of [[Blackhand]], and the destruction of the [[Shadow Council]]. He served a useful purpose to [[Doomhammer]] who, with Gul'dan, wished to bring Ogres through the Portal to enforce inter-clan civility. Cho'gall was placed as overseer for the oil refineries in [[Tol Barad]].
 
−  
−
When Gul'dan discovered the [[Tomb of Sargeras]], Cho'gall believed that it would herald Armageddon, and so was quick to unlock its secrets. [[Orgrim Doomhammer]] ordered the traitorous clans destroyed and while Cho'gall was thought to have been killed in the battle it later turned out that he had escaped with his remaining forces to rebuild and bide his time.<ref name="HPG169"/> Afterwards, those of the Twilight's Hammer, Stormreaver, and Blackrock clans who died in that battle kept reliving it in their undeath, until the [[night elf]] warden [[Maiev Shadowsong]] put them to rest.

−
While the truth behind how this happened remains a mystery, the modern Twilight's Hammer retains the destructive nature of Cho'gall's clan, but almost nothing else. Somehow, one of the Old Gods has managed to make this clan its pawn; and since that time, the clan's numbers and power have dramatically increased. Even humans and other former members of the Alliance flock to join the service of the elemental lords and help bring about the complete destruction of Azeroth. The largest groups of the Twilight's hammer now camp near the locations where they believe the Old Gods and their minions are sealed away; many wait for C'Thun's awakening in Silithus, and others serve Ragnaros in the Blackrock Depths along side the Dark Iron dwarves.<ref name="HPG169"/>

The Twilight's Hammer clan is still seen in Azeroth. The cult was always obsessed with signs of an apocalypse — as had the clan in earlier times—and indeed often sought to bring such doom about by their actions. The Twilight's Hammer has representatives of all races among its members and employs a myriad of classes from simple warriors to Aquamancers and Shadowmages.
 
−  
−
The organization now seems to have a strange fixation on the [[Old Gods]], worshiping [[Ragnaros]] and seeking power from such eldritch places as [[Maraudon]], which has very strong ties to the element of Earth, and thus may hold powers long held at rest. They also show strong resistance in [[Blackfathom Deeps]], the submerged domain of the Old God's servant, [[Aku'mai]], and [[Silithus]], where savage winds blow across the desert outside the ruined city of [[Ahn'Qiraj]], domain of mighty [[C'thun]]. They even have ambassadors among the dwarves of [[Blackrock Depths]], in the court of [[Emperor Dagran Thaurissan]].
 
−  
−
In [[Darkshore]], the Hammer may be found in the [[Master's Glaive]], the site of a large skeleton of a dead Old God. In [[Ashenvale]], their presence is felt most powerfully in the [[Blackfathom Deeps]] [[instance]] where they worship the ancient beast [[Aku'mai]], favored pet of the Old Gods. Their leader there is [[Twilight Lord Kelris]], an orc caster who sits in meditation before a statue of [[Queen Azshara]], waiting for adventurers on the "{{quest|Blackfathom Villainy|Blackfathom Villainy}}" quest. In [[Ironforge]], [[Gerrig Bonegrip]] founded the shop [[Bonegrip's Runes and Dooms]] for the Twilight's Hammer and assists those seeking to free Princess [[Myzrael]], and the Forsaken [[Keeper Bel'dugur]] in [[Undercity]] secretly works for the cult.
 
−  
−
====Presence in [[Silithus]]====
 
−
Their strong activity in Silithus might be ascribed to the presence of [[C'Thun]], an [[Old God]]. Recently, they have been particularly active in Silithus, using the Windstones to summon powerful [[Elementals]] of the [[Abyssal Council]], which may direct the movements of the organization.
 
−  
−
====Presence in [[Northrend]]====
 
−
{{wotlk-section}}
 
−
The Twilight's Hammer has also made a presence in Northrend inhabiting the Dungeon of [[Ahn'kahet: The Old Kingdom]] deep in [[Azjol-Nerub]]. They appear to be drawn by the presence of the [[Old God]] [[Yogg-Saron]] and the [[Faceless One#In Wrath of the Lich King|Faceless Ones]] which serve him and seek to bring about their dark plans.
 
−
An unknown number of Twilight Cultists inhabit the Old Kingdom and are lead by [[Jedoga Shadowseeker]], a servant of Yogg-Saron. A number of Twilight cultists are also seen within the [[Descent into Madness]] of [[Ulduar (instance)|Ulduar]].
 
−
Their Banner can also be seen in the [[Ruby Sanctum]].
 
−  
−
====Role in Cataclysm====
 
−
{{cata-section}}
 
−
The Twilight's Hammer clan becomes a major player in the events of the third expansion. Seduced by the promises of power and the destructive intentions of the twisted [[Deathwing|Death Aspect]], they join him in his quest to unmake the world of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. They claimed the ancient dwarven fortress of [[Grim Batol]] and the surrounding [[Twilight Highlands]], turning it into their main base of operations under leadership of their chieftain, the [[ogre mage]] [[Cho'gall]], wreaking havoc wherever they can. They also have enlisted the help of the dangerous [[twilight dragonflight]] to bolster their ranks. They lead various campaigns against the world such as the assault on [[Mount Hyjal]], assisting the naga in their war against [[Neptulon]] or undermining the efforts of rebuilding the [[World Pillar]] in [[Deepholm]]. They also maintain a strong presence within [[Blackrock Caverns]], where they ascend to transform into drakonids and are sending supplies back and forth to Twilight Highlands. They work with the [[Tol'vir]] to reconfigured the pyramid inside the Maker's Terrace at [[Uldum]] to become a superweapon capable of destroying all life on Azeroth. Notably, their role in the game is very similar to that of the [[Cult of the Damned]] in Wrath of the Lich King, and may be considered a Cataclysm-version of it.

===Twilight Council===
 
−
During the quest [[Quest:Some Spraining to Do|Some Spraining To Do]], [[Mor'norokk]] informs [[Stormcaller Mylra]] of the existence of a 'Twilight Council'. The [[Elemental Focus Band]] also refers to this council. [[Garona]] also refers to it, saying: "The Twilight Council will suffer for their crimes!".
 
−  
−
So far, [[High Priestess Azil]] has been [[Quest:Followers and Leaders|confirmed]] as a member of the Council by [[Earthwarden Yrsa]].
 
−  
−
==Military forces==
 
−
[[File:TwilightsHammer-BannerNew.png|right|Twilight's Hammer banner]]
 
−
What the Twilight's Hammer lacks in military training, it more than makes up for in fervor. Every member would willingly die for the cult, fully believing the Old Gods would reward them for their sacrifice.<ref>''[[Dark Factions]]'', 187</ref>
 
−  
−
Members of lower echelons of the Twilight Hammer (which is most of them) are predominately of the non-magical classes, mostly barbarians, rogues, and warriors. Other non-magical classes are known, but less common. As one ascends through the ranks of the organization, spellcasters become more common. The twilight overlords are almost exclusively spellcasters. Most of the spellcasters are arcanists, specifically elementalists.
 
−  
−
This hierarchical pyramid is also indicative of how the Twilight's Hammer cult approaches defense. The first cultists the heroes encounter are likely to be low-level initiates. Only if that fails to deter them do the heroes face higher-ranking members, increasing in rank and power as they plunge into the depths of the temple. To catch sight of the inner circle, the heroes must breach the inner sanctum. The twilight lord deigns to fight only if the sect as a whole is threatened (in other words, to preserve his own life or goals). By that point, of course, the heroes are depleted from fighting the cultists, in theory making them easy prey for the twilight lord (which makes him look even more impressive to his followers).
 
−  
−
Should a Twilight's Hammer sect be incited to attack another group, their offensive tactics differ little from their defense. Low-level members act as scouts, while the main force attacks in waves of incrementally increasing power, until they subdue their foe, and the twilight lord — or one of his representatives — can swoop in and claim victory. The Twilight's Hammer rarely uses such overt measures, however, preferring instead to scare off those who stand in its way. Accompanying each act of sabotage, kidnapping, or assassination is always an unambiguous — and gruesome — sign that the Twilight's Hammer is responsible.<ref>''[[Dark Factions]]'', 188</ref>
 
−  
−
==The ''[[True Believer]]''==
 
−
[[Hermit Ortell]], an NPC who lives in a cave in the southeast of Silithus, is an ex-Twilight's Hammer member. He will take 10 [[Encrypted Twilight Text]]s (which can drop from any Twilight's Hammer member and drop in large stacks from the roaming [[Twilight Prophet]]) through the repeatable quest {{quest|Still Believing|Still Believing}}. The quest gives no faction, but several hours after the turn-in, he will mail you a container. In the container can be translations of a Twilight's Hammer newsletter that contains lore information, as well as Shadow Resist tradeskill recipes for cloth and plate (Runed Stygian and Darkrune, respectively), as well as scrolls to create an [[Object of Beckoning]].

The Maul Comic

The Maul in World of Warcraft: The Comic.

Did you mean the bear form attack Ability druid maul [Maul], or the weapon Maul (Weapon)?

The Maul is a large pit located outside the three instance wings of Dire Maul in the middle of the Broken Commons. Like Gurubashi Arena in Stranglethorn Vale, entering the Maul flags players for PVA and allows them to attack and kill other players in the Maul, regardless of faction. When a party is in the Maul, however, you cannot attack members of your party.

Players can enter the Maul either by simply dropping into it or by entering a doorway on the west side of the commons that takes them into a tunnel leading past packs of sleeping Gordok hyenas and finally to the fighting area. The tunnel is the only exit from the Maul. It may be most prudent to enter through the tunnel, since dropping down causes the player to take damage from falling and their opponent may attack them before they have recovered their health.
