Fel

Glossary

1 min read

The burning, corrupting magic of the Burning Legion.

Fel is the magic of demons: potent, addictive and ruinous to everything it touches. Gul'dan’s warlocks drained the life from Draenor with it and bound the orcs to the Legion, and its taint turned their skin green. Warlocks still wield it today, and its scars mark Felwood, where demonic corruption has poisoned an ancient forest.
