The new quests in Dustwallow all but tell you that Onyxia manipulates the Defias, at least that she organized the king's abduction. And this article too is flagged as fair use violation, could we sometimes get a consensus on those sourcebook quotes? --Hurax 20:19, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
Map?
the map of command structure is weird, where was it ever said that Hogger or Goldtooth work for the Defias?--Truckman1 18:51, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- It is mentioned that both the gnolls and kobolds of Elwynn and Westfall work for the Defias. Those two are just named examples of these. ----

"Noble" Defias?
There's a huge-ish thread going on in eu RP forum about the Defias - it wasn't about them first but anyhow, there are claims (based on some books I believe) there that members of Defias wanted payments of a million gold (or whatever is the currency of Stormwind) each. And when they were denied it, went all batshit and killed a number of people including the queen. So, what's the truth? The article paints them - or their origins at least as innocents that the system screwed over and badly. --RocketBrother (talk) 11:20, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
- The impression I got was that it was a mix of both. There were a number of innocents that were genuinely screwed over by the system, but also those (like Van Cleef) that made excessive demands and got violent. Unfortunately, those in the latter category rallied the rest together, resulting in a rather large riot that resulted in the deaths of a number of people and the queen. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 00:53, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
- But come to think: the only 'bill' we have is not from VC. And we have to keep in mind that with one of the recent Pen&Paper-sourcebooks Blizz more or less attempt to make VC look like a greedy bastard and the king all innocent and actually willing to pay...but that's a different topic and it's quite cheesy and not really thought through IMHO. To answer the question: Going by the sourcebooks before the attempt to make all defias look like greedy bastard I think we can actually say that the original Defias, including VC were actually pretty noble. And looking at it those excessive demands were actually reasonable as, apparently, noone was paid, not the masons, not the quarries, not the lumber mills, noone, as every noble (including the king back before they tried to change his image) saw the act of rebuilding the city as an act of public service...It's all money adding up--Maibe (talk) 01:06, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
Wiley the Black
He's listed in both the Known Members table and the hierarchy image (which has other errors, but that's another matter), but I don't see any evidence for him being a member. Anyone have a reference on this one? -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 20:40, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
- I can't remember the name, but there's a quest somewhere that mentions him as being a former member. Jormungand01 21:47, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
- Record of Defias Activity indicates that he infiltrated them, i.e. he was a double-agent, not a member. Of course, it's not properly cited either, so take it as you will. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 06:43, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
