Pyrewood's inhabitants have been cursed so that they undergo a nightly transformation into the bestial worgen (measured at 8:59PM–9:00PM server time), then return to their human forms upon the arrival of dawn. It is during this time that they become hostile to all players regardless of faction. Despite all its hardships, however, the village continues to service Alliance travellers by selling cloth, leather, and mail armor to customers. Just a little south of the village is an unmarked grave.

Pyrewood Village will be updated with Gilnean architecture and surroundings. It is presumed that it was originally a part of the kingdom of Gilneas before the Greymane Wall was erected, as stated by King Genn Greymane during Old Divisions. It also hints that Darius Crowley may originally come from Pyrewood.
