The green, verdant plains of '''Mulgore''' are home to the noble [[tauren]]. Mulgore is nestled in the foothills of the [[Stonetalon Mountains]] to the north, and protected by a natural wall of mountains on all sides. The only pass through these mountains leads into the [[Barrens]] to the east.

A land of windswept mesas and grassy plains, Mulgore is the tauren's ancestral homeland.

Mulgore provides bounty for the hunt, as a diversity of wild beasts roam the rolling plains and climb the foothills of the surrounding range. In the northern section of Mulgore, the mesas of [[Thunder Bluff]] tower above the plains, casting long shadows. [[Bloodhoof Village]] is centrally located surrounded by the clear waters of [[Stonebull Lake]], and further south on the protected cliffs of [[Red Cloud Mesa]], [[Camp Narache]] stands as the principal training camp for all young tauren.

Despite the serene landscape and the pine-scented breeze, Mulgore is fraught with trouble. [[Brambleblade Ravine]] and the sacred [[Red Rocks]] are overrun by [[quilboar]]s. The [[goblin]]-run [[Venture Company]] infests the three sacred water wells of Mulgore as well as their [[The Venture Co. Mine|Venture Co. Mine]] in the eastern mountain face. The [[Windfury Harpies|Windfury]] harpy tribe lay claim to the extreme northern reaches of Mulgore and the southeast mountain face. The [[Alliance]] makes its presence known at the [[Bael'dun Digsite]], where [[dwarves]] scour the mountains for traces of their shrouded ancestry, and a tribe of [[gnolls]] known as the [[Palemane Gnolls|Palemane]] make their home at the cave called [[Palemane Rock]] as well as scattered camps along the southern mountains.

== History ==
 
[[File:MulgoreArt.jpg|thumb]]
 
 
This rich plain was once used by the night elves as prime hunting grounds. When the Great Sundering shattered the world, mountains pierced the earth and the night elves fled north. The mighty [[tauren]] made their home upon the low valleys and high plateaus after the night elves left. In time, the ash of upheaval disappeared and the once fertile grasslands returned. The aggressive centaur claim the right to the grasslands and have warred constantly against the tauren for supremacy of the land, but the tauren's mesa strongholds have so far proved impregnable. Mulgore is a landlocked region, with Desolace to the west, the Barrens to the east, the Stonetalon Mountains to the north, and the Thousand Needles to the south. Mulgore is the ancient homeland of the tauren, who live on the windswept mesas and roam the grassy valleys. Below the mesa's ridgeline are the vast emerald plains, which hold an abundance of life including prairie wolves, young kodo beasts, and tallstriders.
 
[[File:Mulgore_Concept_Anniversary.jpg|thumb|An early black and white concept piece of the lands of Mulgore, a spiritual home of the tauren.]]
 
 
The centaur horde mercilessly hounds the tauren throughout Mulgore. The tepee-like tents and crude hide huts that comprise tauren towns stand in stark contrast to the turning windmills and pulley structures that keep the tauren grainmills operating. Large, ornately carved totems dot every street and stand above every major structure.
 
 
Toward the eastern border, quilboar displaced from Durotar have started creating dens with thorned hedgerow barriers. For now, it is a small concern for the tauren, but if the bristly "boar men" encroach too far, there will be a price to pay. At present, the tauren are far more interested in what the centaur are up to. Mulgore is filled with a variety of antelopes, rabbits, and wild boar, making it the ideal place for game hunting. A tauren pastime involves hunting these animals to improve one's combat skills. The tauren rarely eat their prey, preferring to graze on wheat and grass that grow wild in the valley.<ref name="WRPG 205">''[[Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]]'', pg. 205</ref>
 
 
Once nomadic, the tauren met with [[Thrall]] and his [[orc]]s when they landed on [[Kalimdor]]. Looking to the orcs for protection, they saw kindred spirits with honor and power. When [[Cairne]] led his people to Mulgore, they came upon what is now called Thunder Bluff. They constructed their capital upon the lofty mesas, and the city is now a center for trade and commerce. Ruling over the tauren in his old age, Cairne looks one day to hand the mantle of leadership down to his son [[Baine]].

==Cataclysm==
 
{{Cata-section}}
 
[[Image:WorldMap-Mulgore-cata.jpg|thumb|Mulgore in Cataclysm]]
 
The path into Mulgore from the Barrens will be reinforced with walls and gates, due to the destruction of [[Camp Taurajo]] by the [[Alliance]] and construction of a yet-unknown settlement nearby. The quilboar activity in Red Cloud Mesa will increase, turning majority of the land into a barren and thorn-covered soil.
 
 
Areas affected<ref>[http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=19377467311&sid=1 Frejya’s (MVP) Cataclysm Compilation]</ref>:
 
 
* [[Bael'dun Digsite]] – [[Dwarves]] are all dead; area taken over by [[Agitated Earth Spirit]]s
 
 
* [[Brambleblade Ravine]] – the area before this is now known as the [[Thorn Snarl]], primarily consisting of scorched earth, a large lake, and an ongoing fight between the [[Tauren]] and [[Quilboar]]
 
 
* [[Camp Narache]] – to the west rises [[Fargaze Mesa]]; a road now leads north to the remainder of Mulgore
 
 
* [[Red Cloud Mesa]] – [[Seer Graytongue]]'s tent is burned down; the original exit to the remainder of Mulgore has been covered by a rockslide – all that remains now is taken over by the Quilboar in a nest of brambles dubbed [[Thornmantle's Hideout]]
 
 
* [[Red Rocks]] – [[Lorekeeper Raintotem]] has been moved from here to due west of here in a new Horde camp (hub), [[Camp Sungraze]]; in the hills above Red Rocks is an empty cave system as well as an abandoned Tauren camp nearby
 
 
* [[The Venture Co. Mine]] – [[Supervisor Fizsprocket]] is now located at the front of the mine
 
 
* [[Wildmane Water Well]] – there is a [[Grimtotem]] camp with a road that leads above [[Stonetalon Mountains]] called [[Stonetalon Pass]] (though there is no way to continue on to Stonetalon Mountains from the road) – the Grimtotem and [[Thunder Bluff]] Tauren are fighting for the road
 
 
* Other – [[Great Gate|The Great Gate]] now separates Mulgore from the Southern Barrens; most of the Water Wells are now roamed by the Grimtotem

== Geography ==
 
Mulgore has temperate rugged hills, plains (grassland), some rugged mountains.<ref name="WRPG 205"/>
 
 
Mulgore is a sheltered and pastoral valley surrounded by mountains on all sides, and accessible only through a pass to the southeast. Resembling a huge pasture, the area is covered with verdant green grass and few trees. An oddity of the landscape, the tall cliffs of [[Thunder Bluff]] tower over the fields in the center of the zone.
 
 
It is possible for non-[[tauren]] to explore [[Red Cloud Mesa]] without actually running all the way up. By hugging the cliff below, the area will appear on the map.
 
 
Mulgore contains no dungeons of any type and no battlegrounds. [[Thunder Bluff]], the Horde aligned capital city for [[tauren]], is the only travel hub.

Mulgore is home to several tauren of status. From the base camp in Camp Narache, [[Chief Hawkwind]] sends promising young tauren out into the world. In Bloodhoof Village, [[Mull Thunderhorn]] leads the effort to cleanse the Mulgore water wells, and from his post on the road east of the village, [[Morin Cloudstalker]] seeks to eradicate the foothold the Venture Company has established in the land. [[Baine Bloodhoof]], son of the great Cairne, has been chosen to chief the village named by his bloodline.
 
 
== Quests ==
 
{{main|Mulgore quests}}
 
{{seealso|Mulgore questing guide}}
 
 
Since it is the starting zone for the [[tauren]], [[Mulgore quests]] range from level 1-10 in difficulty. Quests here often deal with driving out invasive creatures and protecting the land. Particularly important to young tauren is the [[Rites of the Earthmother/Chain|Rites of the Earthmother quest chain]], in which they learn the ways of the land.
