But five years ago, the undead Scourge invaded Quel'Thalas and drove the elves to the brink of extinction. Led by the evil death knight Arthas, the Scourge destroyed the mystical Sunwell, thereby severing the elves from the source of their arcane power.

Calling themselves "blood elves," these grim survivors are committed to regaining the vast powers they once commanded.
