Battle for Azeroth Reputations

The 7th Legion represents a group of elite Alliance forces. While they have been present in some manner throughout World of Warcraft history, it is only with the Battle for Azeroth expansion that reputation can be gained with them. The 7th Legion were responsible for guarding Princess Talanji and the Prophet Zul. An incursion by Horde forces left many of their number dead and the prisoners escaped. The 7th Legion then traveled to Kul Tiras along with Genn Greymane with the purpose of convincing Kul Turas to rejoin the Alliance.

The final events of Legion saw Sargeras stab Azeroth with a giant sword. The result caused a massive wound in Silithus that looks to be slowly killing the planet. The speaker of Azeroth, Magni Bronzebeard, seeks help from both Horde and Alliance heroes alike to stop interested parties in exploiting these wounds for personal benefit. He remains neutral in the war between the Horde and the Alliance, despite being the former king of Ironforge. His only interest is in saving Azeroth and realizes that only by working together, can the Horde and Alliance achieve their goal.

The Order of Embers can trace it's ancestry back nearly 3000 years ago. They represent a group of humans that fought a group of creatures called the Drust in what is now Drustvar. In Battle for Azeroth, the House of Waycrest has reformed the Order of Embers to battle against the Heartsbane Coven, a group of witches that serve the spirits of the Drust. Through a bargain made with Gorak Tul, the deceased ruler of the Drust, they gained magic which they use in order to bring back the Drust presence to Kul Tiras.

Widely considered to have the finest navy in all of Azeroth (though the Zandalari Empire may have something to say about that), the Proudmoore Admiralty has aligned itself with the Alliance in their war against the Horde. House Proudmoore has led the Proudmoore Admiralty for many generations from Boralus, the capital of Kul Tiras. The Proudmoore Admiralty is presently led by Lord Admiral Katherine Proudmoore, mother of Jaina Proudmoore. Having raised her father's ship from it's resting place in the sea, Jaina uses her magic to make the ship fly, saving the Alliance from Sylvanas's blight during the attempted sack of Undercity.

The Rajani are a group of mogu that work in concert with the Golden Lotus to defend the Vale of Eternal Blossoms against the forces of N'zoth. While the mogu are predominantly hostile to the other races of Pandaria, the Rajani find themselves on the same side as the other citizens of Pandaria in the fight against N'zoth. They were formerly led by Ra-den, the titan keep who created all mogu. After being freed from his prison in the Throne of Thunder, Ra-den has remained in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. He was recently corrupted by N'zoth in an effort to protect the mogu.

The Rustbolt Resistance are a group of junker gnomes living in Mechagon and are opposed to the rule of it's current regent, King Mechagon. These gnomes were originally found in Boralus but mysteriously vanished. Seeking closure, Parin Tinklocket found a strange, locked vault but despite his best efforts, was unable to open it. The vault eventually unlocks, revealing a transmitter that teleports anyone using it to Mechagon. The Rustbolt Resistance are led by Prince Erazmin, son of King Mechagon. He is opposed to his father’s plan to convert the gnomes into purely mechanical beings.

Storm's Wake comprises a group of ordinary men operating in Stormsong Valley. House Stormstrong is one of the ruling factions of Kul Tiras and rules over Stormsong Valley. Lord Stormstrong, the present ruler of House Stormstrong, fell to the dark influence of Queen Azshara and eventually formed an alliance with her. The Storm's Wake faction then represents a group of citizens that seek to rise up against their dark oppressors and free Stormsong Valley from her influence. They desire only to protect the people from Queen Azshara and have allied themselves with the Alliance.

Led by Princess Talanji herself, Talanji's Expedition is an incursion to Nazmir in an attempt to diminish the threat from the blood trolls that inhabit the region. Upon arriving in Nazmir, Talanji quickly realizes the threat from the blood trolls is far worse than anyone had initially realized. Throughout her expedition, she learns that the blood trolls worship G'huun, an Old God that the blood trolls see as a loa. The blood trolls seek to release G'huun from his prison and offer sacrifices of blood to aid in his release.

Led by Nathanos Blightcaller, the Honorbound represent a group of Horde forces that seek to disrupt the Alliance forces on Kul Tiras. Having secured footholds in Drustvar, Stormsong Valley, and Tiragarde Sound, the Honorbound are able to attack the Alliance from those locations. While looking for the body of Marshall Valentine, the Honorbound managed to recover the body of Derek Proudmoore instead. They were able to use the body as a distraction, allowing Horde forces to steal the Abyssal Scepter from Boralus. What the Honorbound have planned for either the body of Derek Proudmoore or the Abyssal Scepter is anyone's guess.

The Unshackled are an amalgamation of escaped naga slaves residing in Nazjatar. The naga, in the service of Queen Azshara, have long ruled Nazjatar. Being the oppressors that they are, they have enslaved any manner of sentient creature they encounter including but not limited to sea giants, gilgoblins, makura, and murlocs. The leader of the Unshackled, Neri Sharpfin, is a gilgoblin and was among the first to escape the thrall of the naga. She then dedicated her life to freeing others from their servitude, providing a safe place for the former slaves to reside, and serve as beacon of hope to those still being oppressed. The Unshackled eventually encounter the Horde, who support their cause and lend their swords in the battle against the naga.

The Tortollan Seekers crave only one thing: knowledge. They use their influence and accumulated wealth to an effort to preserve knowledge wherever it can be found. Many of the Tortollan were devasted having found the blood trolls and killed and gutted their loa, Torga. While the loss of their deity weighed heavy on their hearts, many were confused and distraught over the fact that Torga would no longer be able to share any of his incredible stories. It is in his honor, that many Tortollans struck out to share what they've learned with the world.

The Uldum Accord is a faction comprised mostly of Ramkahen battling against the forces of N'zoth in Uldum. N'zoth has begun exerting his influence across Azeroth and have corrupted the enemies of the Ramkahen, the Amathet. The Amathet are a tribe of Tol'vir that once sought to guard the machinations of the titans, including the Halls of Origination. They now seek to become one with the titans and have begun attacking the Halls of Origination and the Ramkahen across Uldum. While these two factions were already at odds with one another, the Amathet have become increasingly more hostile. The Ramkahen see themselves as the protectors of Uldum and seek to thwart the Amathet and N'zoth.

The Voldunai are an alliance of vulpera and Zandalari exiles that operate primarily in Vol'dun. The Voldunai have allied themselves with a faction of sethrak, led by Vorrik. Once a ruler of all sethrak people, Vorrik had a disagreement with fellow ruler Korthek over unleashing Mythrax the Unraveler to wipe out the trolls in Zandalar. Remembering Sethraliss's sacrifice to save the sethrak from Mythrax, Vorrik saw this idea as sacrilegious and thus the sethrak people were split, with most siding with Korthek.

The Waveblade Ankoan are a group of seadwelling creatures residing in the oceans near Zandalar and Kul Tiras. They are enemies of the naga, having fought against and been enslaved by the creatures. They are considered an endangered species, largely due to the persecution at the hands of the naga. The Waveblade Ankoan originally began as Jinyu living in Pandaria. Eons ago, they struck out on their own, choosing to explore the depths of the oceans, becoming followers of Neptulon and eventually settling in Nazjatar. Given their numbers, the Waveblade Ankoan have reached the sad conclusion that it is unlikely they will ever rebuild their population. Armed with that anger and allied with their new friends the Alliance, the Waveblade decide to take the fight straight to the naga.

The Zandalari Empire represents the oldest group of trolls living on Zandalar. Led by King Rastakhan, the Zandalari Empire must protect it's people from the blood trolls of Nazmir, the sethrak of Vol'dun, as well as threats from within their own borders. As the Princess Talanji and the Prophet Zul were imprisoned by the Alliance at the beginning of Battle for Azeroth, allying themselves with the Horde was not a difficult decision. The Zandalari Empire boasts of a navy unmatched by any, though the Proudmoore Admiralty may give them a run for their money.
