Much has already been written about the consequences of Deathwing’s return to Azeroth during the latest expansion World of Warcraft Cataclysm. Deathwing returns destroying and reforming the land in the process, but how does this radical change really affect its players? It is perhaps safe to say that after five years and eleven million subscribers on, it is unlikely there will be another major influx of new players. Cataclysm, then, is an expansion pack that promises to address the most significant issue that arises from a game which has run as long as World of Warcraft has – boredom.

The worgen are a race of feral wolf-beasts whose very name inspires fear. Theories regarding their history abound, yet the worgen's origins remain steeped in mystery.

Records indicate that the worgen existed for a time in Kalimdor. In fact, more recent evidence suggests that their true origin might have a connection to the night elves and a secretive druidic order from Kalimdor's distant past. Yet until new evidence comes to light, this information remains speculative.

The worgen's first verified appearance in the Eastern Kingdoms has been traced back to the Third War, when the archmage Arugal utilized the wolf-beasts as a weapon against the Scourge. Arugal's weapons soon turned against him, however, as the curse of the worgen rapidly spread among the human population, transforming ordinary men and women into ravenous, feral creatures.
