[[Andorhal]] was the site of some diabolical experiments by the [[Scourge]]. But when they started tampering with time, the [[bronze dragonflight]] sent Chronormu to investigate. Chronormu set up base of operations in the Andorhal inn, creating a time pocket in a single room. There, operating from another time, free of the Scourge's infestation, Chronormu could investigate without contaminating the timeline.

Uncommonly sociable for a bronze dragon, Chronormu took the form of a female [[gnome]] named Chromie. The bronze enlisted the aid of adventurers to assist, sending them to root out [[Temporal Parasite]]s which were interfering with auguration. To maintain the pocket universe, Chromie needed trinkets of time from the ruins of Andorhal. In return for these, Chromie crafted dampeners attuned to [[Araj]], the [[lich]] who ruled over the broken city. When activated in his presence, they severely reduced the effectiveness of his spells, and played an instrumental role in his downfall.

The more time spent with these mortals, the more sympathetic the bronze agent became with their desperate plight, and mourned the losses to the Scourge. When [[Carlin Redpath]], hoping to undo the curse on the soul of his brother, heard about the strange little gnome, he sent his friends to speak with her, equipped with Joseph's wedding ring. Upon receiving the ring, Chromie immediately knew much of Joseph — that he was a great man who had suffered an unspeakable tragedy, and knew it was too late to save him in the present, but not in the past. Sending Carlin's agents into the ruins of Andorhal, they uncovered records detailing the fall of [[Darrowshire]], and the corruption of [[Joseph Redpath]].

To help him, relics from that battle were needed. With Carlin's help, relics belonging to the heroes and villains of Darrowshire were assembled. Also needed were remains of many Scourge who participated in the battle, found by the use of a resonating crystal that could discern which of the Scourge in the [[Plaguelands]] had been there. When all these were assembled, they were brought to Chromie, who cast a spell of time upon them, and bid Carlin's friends to return to Darrowshire and place the bag of relics in the centre of town. Chromie's spell would raise the spirits of [[The Battle of Darrowshire]], and they would reenact a pantomime of that tragic battle. Chromie could only guide the mortals to their paths, not lead the way for them, and so Chromie bid Carlin's friends good luck, and returned to the investigations of Andorhal.

Chromie also acts as the bronze dragonflight's ambassador at [[Wyrmrest Temple]] as a part of [[The Wyrmrest Accord]]. Chromie sends willing adventurers out into the [[Dragonblight]] to investigate the origins of the [[infinite dragonflight]] at the [[Bronze Dragonshrine]].
 
 
===Quests===
 
Chromie gives two quests to divine the true identity of the leader of the [[Infinite dragonflight]].

In the first quest, you are assisted by "Future You." In the second quest, you are assisted by "Past You." Your alternate time-displaced self will make quips about things like how much better/worse your gear is now.

Chromie has also been spotted a few years in the past, just prior to the third war, when she greets players when they zone into the [[Culling of Stratholme]]. She explains that the infinite dragonflight are trying to hide the evidence Arthas used to decide to purge Stratholme by casting illusions on the plagued grain. She gives players [[Arcane Disruptor]]s that allow players to identify the plagued grain crates.
 
 
Once all the plagued grain has been revealed, she asks players to protect Arthas and make sure he reaches [[Mal'ganis]].
 
 
In addition, on heroic mode, she whispers players at the start of the first leg of the instance to rescue the Bronze Dragonflight agent that is being attacked by the [[Infinite Corruptor]]. She also gives the group warnings when the timer to complete the rescue mission reaches the five- and one-minute marks.

== Notes ==
 
*At some point in time, Chromie tossed {{loot|common|Chromie's Gold Coin|a coin}} in the [[Dalaran]] [[Dalaran fountain|fountain]]. The coin flavor text reads: "Just once, I wish someone would greet me without making a stupid joke about gnomes or time travel".
 
*Chromie follows the pattern of giving dragons names that reference their sphere of influence — "chron" is derived from the Ancient Greek "χρόνος," meaning "time." [[wikipedia:Chronos|Chronos]] (not to be confused with Cronus/Kronos) was the god of time in Hellenistic works. Interestingly, Chronormu's nickname is more similar to "χρώμα", ("chroma") which references color.
 
*Interestingly, "ormu" is typical of the ''male'' bronze dragon, while "ormi" is typical of the ''female''. As Chronormu is female,<ref>''[[World of Warcraft: The Magazine]]'' issue 2</ref> she is an exception to this "rule".
 
 
== Quotes ==
 
;Andorhal
 
:''Hello there, <name>. I am known as Chronormu, but you may call me Chromie. I am comfortable with such familiarity.''
 
:''Now - how did I know your name, your ask? I am one of the bronze dragonflight, forever attuned to the ebb and flow of time. You could say that we have met before. To that end, we shall also meet again.''
 
:''I hope that my choice of visual demeanor does not disturb you: while I might be charged to be a sentry of sorrowful places, I choose not to drown in the sorrow of the locale.''
 
;Wyrmrest Temple
 
:''<Name>, good to see you!''
 
:''Or is this the first time we've met?''
 
:''I'm in so [[Ruins of Andorhal|many places]] and [[Culling of Stratholme|times]] right now, I sometimes have a hard time keeping track of all of it.''
