The '''Storm Peaks''' are a [[zone]] located in the northeast of [[Northrend]]. It is where a mysterious race of [[giant]]s named the [[storm giant]]s live. The [[titan]] city of [[Ulduar]] is also located here. The winds that rip through the mountains are extremely violent and dangerous.

The Storm Peaks have a mysterious history. Long ago, the Titans lived here. They created Ulduar as their city, and it is from here that they conducted their experiments. It is said that the Storm Peaks are the origin of the storm giants, and perhaps the [[dwarves]] and [[trogg]]s as well. The [[tolvir]] aided the Titans in the construction of the great city, but all members of the cat-like race vanished long ago.

The region was protected for centuries by the [[earthen]], [[giants]], and the [[Watcher_(titanic)|Titanic Watchers]] left behind by the Titans. The supreme ruler of the Storm Peaks and the primary guardian of all of Azeroth, [[Loken]], co-ordinated the efforts of the Titans' creations for centuries. In time, Loken fell to the corruption of the Old God buried beneath Ulduar, the vile [[Yogg-Saron]]. Loken captured the other watchers and schemed to release Yogg-Saron. He nearly succeeded, but heroes of the [[Alliance]] and the [[Horde]] infiltrated Ulduar and put an end to both Loken and his dark patron.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION related to Spider Kingdom Expansion Concept

The Storm Peaks are a zone located in the northeast of Northrend. It is where a mysterious race of giants named the storm giants live. The titan city of Ulduar is also located here. The winds that rip through the mountains are extremely violent and dangerous.

History

The Storm Peaks have a mysterious history. Long ago, the Titans lived here. They created Ulduar as their city, and it is from here that they conducted their experiments. It is said that the Storm Peaks are the origin of the storm giants, and perhaps the dwarves and troggs as well. The tolvir aided the Titans in the construction of the great city, but all members of the cat-like race vanished long ago.

The region was protected for centuries by the earthen, giants, and the Titanic Watchers left behind by the Titans. The supreme ruler of the Storm Peaks and the primary guardian of all of Azeroth, Loken, co-ordinated the efforts of the Titans' creations for centuries. In time, Loken fell to the corruption of the Old God buried beneath Ulduar, the vile Yogg-Saron. Loken captured the other watchers and schemed to release Yogg-Saron. He nearly succeeded, but heroes of the Alliance and the Horde infiltrated Ulduar and put an end to both Loken and his dark patron.

Vidar will require aid in securing the alliance of the fiercely independent hyldnir.

Characters mimiron

Watcher Mimiron returns to defend Ulduar, along with his newly rebuilt 'son,' XT-002-&-1/2..


The Watcher's Offensive

After the Alliance and the Horde drove the Twilight's Hammer out of Ulduar, the Titanic Watchers were able to reclaim it. The Earthen and the giant servants of the Watchers are now devoted to defending Ulduar from the servants of the Old Gods and finally driving the Twilight's Hammer out of the Storm Peaks completely. Thorim, Hodir, and the avatar of Freya have all convened at the Temple of Order, former seat of the missing Watcher, Tyr. Here they organize their forces into a cohesive army to battle the Twilight's Hammer and the encroaching threat of the nerubians.

The leader of the Twilight's Hammer in Northrend is the dark iron dwarf Forgemaster Balehammer, who is overseeing the taking of the former holdings of the Iron Dwarves. When Yogg-Saron was defeated, all of the Iron Dwarves went into stasis, leaving their cities unguarded and their technology free for the taking. The Twilight Hammer have begun experiments with re-awakening the Iron Dwarves. After extracting liquid saronite from the remains of Iron Colossus, Balehammer discovers that it can be used to reanimate the Iron Dwarves, as well as greatly increasing their power. Balehammer is finally confronted at the Temple of Wisdom, formerly the seat of the corrupted Watcher, Loken, where he is given the secret of creating Iron Dwarves by a vrykul woman called Sara. Balehammer escapes with the information before he can be slain, while Sara mocks the player and vanishes.

Ulduar

Watcher Mimiron is in charge of repairing the systems of Ulduar that were damaged in the Cataclysm. Nerubians have infiltrated the inner chambers of Ulduar through underground tunnels, and Mimrion requires aid in clearing them out. Mimiron will provide players with access to his new inventions and back-up in the form of his mechagnome and clockwork giant minions.

After liberating the four Watcher sanctums in Ulduar, Mimiron and players will confront Balehammer once again, in the Prison of Yogg-Saron. Balehammer and his forces are again joined by the vrykul Sara. The prison is infested with Undying Tendrils and Faceless Ones, as well as members of the Twilight's Hammer. The corpse of Yogg-Saron remains where the Old God had fallen, and has degraded into a massive lump of rotting, semi-liquid saronite. Balehammer extracts a dark crystal of pure saronite before retreating, leaving players and Mimiron to confront a Faceless General named Malefax summoned by Sara. Mimiron will call upon XT-002-&-1/2 to fight against Malefax by transforming into a clockwork giant.

Other Quests

The Frost Giants at Dun Niffelem have a new series of daily quests revolving around defending their home from marauding Deathflight frost wyrms.

The Twilight's Hammer have begun conducting rituals to take control of the revenants of the Storm Peaks. Several enslaved revenant forces are already assaulting Camp Tunka'lo.

Changes to Instances in Storm Peaks

  • The Ulduar raid has been removed. The Ulduar zone is now un-instanced and can be explored freely without being in a raid group.
  • Twilight's Hammer forces have infiltrated the Halls of Stone, and are reanimating the inactive Iron Dwarves there. References to Loken have been changed to reflect the new final boss of the Halls of Lightning.
  • The Twilight's Hammer have infiltrated the Halls of Lightning, and are attempting to activate the armies of Iron Vrykul that still slumber there.
  • The Iron Dwarf, Vrykul, and Giant mobs in the later parts of the Halls of Lightning have been replaced with stone creatures - Cursed Earthen, Cursed Stone Vrykul, Cursed Stone Giant, etc.
  • Loken has been replaced by Jotun, the Curse Bearer. He has sequestered himself in the Terrestrial Watchtower. His powers are earth-based, rather than lightning-based.
