Timbermaw Hold
When the corruption of the Burning Legion crept into the sacred forests of Kalimdor, it was the
creatures of the wild who first felt its monstrous power. Once gentle animals were transformed
into abominable, rabid killers; their flesh rent and their spirits desecrated, they quickly
succumbed to the demons' influence. Soon after, the furbolgs, the ursine children of the forest,
suffered the same fate, as their entire species was driven mad by the surrounding corruption.
However, amidst the chaos and the madness, one furbolg tribe escaped the darkness that had fallen
on Kalimdor. In the safety of Timbermaw Hold, the furbolgs of the Timbermaw tribe weathered the
storm, yet they were forced to watch helplessly as the forest they had loved so much was slowly
turned into a twisted, festering perversion of its former self. When the spirits of the forest
spoke to them no more, the Timbermaw knew that their home was gone... possibly, forever. The corruption had sunk in deep, so that even long after Illidan the Betrayer had consumed the source
of the corruption, a powerful warlock artifact called the Skull of Gul'dan, and vanquished the
demons' leader Tichondrius, the taint on the woods still remained.
With the Burning Legion defeated, the Timbermaw furbolgs have recently taken their first, careful
steps outside of the safety of Timbermaw Hold. They are wary of all strangers, fearing that they
may mistake them for their corrupted brethren and attack. However, the Timbermaw are painfully
aware that they will not last on their own; adventurers who seek out Timbermaw Hold in northern
Felwood and prove themselves as friends of the Timbermaw will learn that the furbolgs value their
friends above all else. Though they possess no fine jewels or any worldly riches, the Timbermaw's
shamanistic tradition is still strong. They know much about the art of crafting armors from animal
hides, and they are more than happy to share their healing talismans with friends of their tribe.
The Timbermaw's main concerns are putting an end to their corrupted brethren's suffering and finding
a cure to heal the wounds the corruption of Felwood has inflicted upon the land, so that one day,
the ancient forests will once again resound with the peaceful chants and the soft laughter of the
children of the forest.
