The '''Stonemaul Clan''' sailed west to [[Kalimdor]] since the [[Second War]] and established a village in [[Dustwallow Marsh]]. The tyrannical [[ogre]], [[Kor'gall]], came into possession of the ancient orcish axe, [[Serathil]], and used its magical powers to rise quickly through the ranks of the Stonemauls. But Kor'gall's ride to power stemmed from nothing more than a desire to overpower his kin, and his rule was brutal and merciless, and one ogre, whose brothers were killed by Kor'gall, knew that he was leading the clan to ruin.

Kor'gall was soon approached by [[Rexxar]], a [[Mok'Nathal]]. Rexxar demanded to join the clan, and Kor'gall agreed, but only if he were to pass through the gauntlet, a valley full of many beasts. Rexxar and his friends survived the gauntlet, and Kor'gall was impressed, and allowed Rexxar to join. Rexxar's first request was to aid the [[Horde]], but Kor'gall had no intention of ever honouring their former allies again. Frustrated, Rexxar exercised his right to challenge Kor'gall for leadership of the clan. Kor'gall decided to entertain the request, but warned that he was not as slow-witted as Rexxar first guessed.

Though it took several tries, Rexxar finally beat Kor'gall and slew him. As Kor'gall died, the last words on his ears were his men cheering for Rexxar.
 
With his death Rexxar assumed the position of chieftain. He then led the Stonemaul ogres back to [[Tidefury Cove]], where [[Thrall]] was assembling the Horde. Thrall sent his soldiers and the Stonemaul ogres to [[Theramore]] to keep Proudmoore's forces at bay while Rexxar and his few companions wove through the battle to face off against Proudmoore and his most loyal retainers. In the end, Rexxar and Proudmoore squared off in mortal combat, and Rexxar emerged victorious.

After the battle, Rexxar disappeared into the Barren wilderness and made the ogre [[Mok'Morokk]] the leader of the Clan.

Unlike the pets from the Collector's Edition of [[World of Warcraft]], the Netherwhelp's Collar item is attached and sent to all your characters, present and future, in the mail as soon as you upgrade your account.

Although Mok'Morokk had displayed strength when Rexxar was their leader, he soon fell prey to temptations of power after Rexxar's departure. Rather than lead, he demanded. He did not serve his people, as he expected them to serve him.

Later Stonemaul Village was raided by [[Onyxia]]'s brood. The daughter of the black dragonlord, [[Deathwing]] was there for a greater reason, one which they didn't know.

==Notes==
Mok’Morokk led the clan to [[Brackenwall Village]], where he ruled unquestioned until an unknown challenger drove him out. While [[Draz'Zilb]] runs the show from the shadows, the clan seeks a new leader; but they have renewed their ties to the Horde. The aging [[Tharg]] is the most likely candidate for leadership of the clan, but most of the Stonemaul ogres secretly desire Rexxar’s return.{{Cite|HPG|156}}

There was also a splinter of the Stonemaul clan that remained in the [[Eastern Kingdoms]], residing in the [[Plaguelands]]. These ogres were led by [[Mug'thol]], who soon fell under the sway of the [[Forsaken]] when he was possessed by one of [[Sylvanas]]' [[banshee]]s. After he and his ogres aided in the defeat of [[Varimathras]], [[Balnazzar]], and [[Detheroc]], Mug'thol was sent to retrieve the [[Crown of Will]]. Once acquired, he tried it on, and subsequently broke the psychic link with Sylvanas, thus freeing himself from the Forsaken's control.

Another note for North American players is your Netherwhelp is sent to you via the in game mail. Unlike the first World of Warcraft Collector Edition where you completed a quest in your starting zone. You have to travel from your starting zone to the closest mailbox, which is normally no more than a 5 minute walk. You have 30 days to pickup your Netherwhelp before it is lost. So its important if you were creating alternative characters or have many characters across many servers to pick up your whelping within 30 days to avoid losing your whelp.

Inv netherwhelp
NetherWhelp
Netherwelp

Netherwhelp's Collar summons and dismisses Netherwhelp, a dragon whelpling companion. The Netherwhelp is the juvenile stage of a Nether drake.

Source

This item is available only to people who bought the Collector's Edition of the Burning Crusade expansion pack.

Unlike the pets from the Collector's Edition of World of Warcraft, the Netherwhelp's Collar item is attached and sent to all your characters, present and future, in the mail as soon as you upgrade your account. Blizzard had originally announced that once you upgrade your game, you cannot re-upgrade it with a Collector's Edition at a later time. This means that the characters associated with your regularly upgraded account could never obtain this item, with a transfer of a character to a Collector's Edition account not allowed. [1]

However due to numerous requests, Blizzard officially announced on January 22, 2007 that they are working on a solution to help customers re-upgrade their accounts. Those who fall in this category are asked to contact their Billing and Account Services department. Those who posted in the thread at the WoW forum have mentioned their having been able to get their accounts manually re-upgraded using this method. [2]

Notes

The Netherwhelp pet caused much anger in Europe because Blizzard didn't put a code to get the pet, only the standard one to upgrade an account to a normal Burning Crusade account. To compensate for this production error, they implemented a new way to obtain the item that involved:

  1. Finding a unique reference card found at the back of the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game exclusive cards pack and the barcode on the back of the box,
  2. printing your account management page (or writing down your account name and e-mail address) and,
  3. sending these all in one package to Paris, Blizzard HQ.

Many fans were angered because the items to send were a part of the Collector's Edition. In response to the additional inconvenience, Blizzard added 2 days of gametime to all affected accounts and offered them a second exclusive pet: Lurky the murloc.


Receiving your Netherwhelp:

Another note for North American players is your Netherwhelp is sent to you via the in game mail. Unlike the first World of Warcraft Collector Edition where you completed a quest in your starting zone. You have to travel from your starting zone to the closest mailbox, which is normally no more than a 5 minute walk. You have 30 days to pickup your Netherwhelp before it is lost. So its important if you were creating alternative characters or have many characters across many servers to pick up your whelping within 30 days to avoid losing your whelp.

Patches and Hotfixes

Bc icon Patch 2.1.0 (2007-05-22): the Netherwhelp's Collar received a new unique icon. The Netherwhelp itself also had its animations redone to match the other dragon whelplings, and plays the same sounds as the Inv misc head dragon black [Dark Whelpling] when selected by a player.
