The Oracles are a faction of gorlocs that inhabit the Sholazar Basin. They hate the Frenzyheart Tribe of wolvar. They see themselves as guardians of the titan technology that remains in the zone (though they understand little of it). They find themselves in an escalating territorial war with the wolvar.
They are said to be the "next evolution of murlocs".[1] Lead Game Designer Jeff Kaplan called them "An evolution to the Murlocs" and said they were a "Complicated race of Murloc, both good and bad at the same time".[2] They are the friendly gorlocs.

Relation to the Frenzyheart Tribe
Much like Scryer vs Aldor or Bloodsail Buccaneers and Steamwheedle Cartel The Oracles and The Frenzyheart Tribe are opposite factions, where when you gain reputation with one you lose reputation with the other.
As hated
You will be unable to complete daily quests for the Oracles and will be attacked on sight because you are neutral or better with the Frenzyheart Tribe, who are the Oracles sworn enemies.
Switching Factions
To switch factions from Frenzyheart Tribe to The Oracles you must defeat Artruis the Heartless, a level 77 elite that is soloable by many classes. During the fight with Artruis you are attacked by both an Oracle (Jaloot) and a Frenzyheart (Zepik) , you must leave the Jaloot the Oracle alive and kill Zepik the Frenzyheart, then finish defeating Artrius in order for the Oracle Hand of the Oracles quest giver to appear. Completing this quest automatically boots your rep to friendly, but REDUCES your frenzyheart tribe rep to hated, so make sure you finish up anything you wish to do with the frenzyheart before completing this task.
Warning: Anyone outside the group may kill the NPC that you are trying to save while you are doing this encounter. This will cause you to be with the unintended faction without any action on your part. This is especially important for higher levels to be aware of when assisting lower levels in this encounter as they may be exalted/close to and will have their reputation reset. Upon consultation with GM's the response to this problem has so far been "this encounter is working as intended".
From honored to exalted
Complete the three daily quests offered in Rainspeaker Canopy, these are random from one of the 8 listed above. The dailies that make you kill many Frenzyheart Attackers award 700 rep, all others reward 500. Therefore you will earn 1500-1700 rep each day.
honored to revered: 7 - 8 days
revered to exalted: 13 - 14 days
Fortunately if you're waiting for the Mysterious Egg (which you can get at revered) to generate 4 non-combat pets that would take at minimum 4 weeks anyway (and that's assuming you are extremely lucky).
Rewards
The most coveted thing from the Oracles is the Mysterious Egg, which can hatch into four different non-combat pets and also a VERY rare Green Proto-Drake mount. If you're not a pet collector this reputation is also part of two achievements: The Oracles for getting exalted with the oracles, and Mercenary of Sholazar for getting exalted with both the oracles and the Frenzyheart Tribe.
