| − | It states that there were Shamans there. I do not recall this during the actualy WC2 mission but in WC3: TFT these shammans are shown. It is possible these shamans aligned to the Stormreaver Clan were Dark Shamans. My theory is that they are Elemental Shamans/Warlocks, who sustain their link to the elements by magical force and thus can wield its powers.

Revision as of 18:44, 13 April 2010
Forums: Village pump → Warcraft lore → Dark Shaman?
Are there any info on dark shamans? How do they work, since I though the elements would have to agree with it to work, and the dark part implies that it's forced? I guess Ragnaros wouldn't mind helping out,...but still.
- Examples of Dark shamans in WoW:
Items:
Not RPG class option?

- My best guess... a shaman gone bad.

- I always figured it was like Ner'zhul at the end of "Beyond the Dark Portal" a Shaman so powerful that they don't need the elements co-operation, they have the power to force the elements into doing what they want rather then asking and hoping they agree... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Max Krist (talk · contr).
- Hmm, "Over time, the taunka—whom many believe to be ancestral cousins of the tauren—have adapted, but only by forcing the land and the elements to yield to their will. The taunka's relationship with nature, unlike that of their tauren brethren, has been one of constant struggle and grim perseverance."[1]. Does this mean they.. force the elements like a dark shaman would, or just describe their struggle with The North Wind? TherasTaneel (talk) 09:42, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

The taunka are not dark shamans. If they stopped doing what they do they would freeze to death. A quick search for dark shamans brought up Talk:Shaman lore, Talk:Fel orc#fel orc classes, and Talk:Gul'dan#Shaman. It seems they do not have lore, so I am agreeing with Coobra.--SWM2448 17:53, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

- It is Dark Shaman's Cover, so it is/was owned by a Dark Shaman. On the Taunka note forcing the elements is more akin to Geomancers.
