** Or Soulfire. It LOOKS like a mere pyroblast, but it is implied to burn the victim's soul. Several other warlock spells qualify, especially affliction spells. An Affliction warlock's speciality is to kill the victim slowly and painfully and boy, do they do it well. Curse of Agony... Corruption... Unstable Affliction... just the names are enough to understand what an affliction warlock's victim is suffering.

*** To the uninitiated, or those who don't think about it...Curse of Agony essentially sets every nerve in the target's body on fire, Corruption does awful, unspeakable things to their body, likely ''melting'' things, Unstable Affliction similar...and then there's their ability to ''light anybody they please on fire.''

* Remember the little jewel of terror that occurs in the normally peaceful little village of Goldshire, Elwynn Forest. While the entire town, neigh, the entire zone is very serene, there's the one little random spot of horror that is the infamous "Children of Goldshire." To elaborate, in the upstairs of one of the few buildings in town (think leatherworking trainers) there is a back room where you will, on somewhat rare occasions, find a group of six children huddled in a pentagram with one of them in the middle. They don't talk or interact at all, they just...stand there, staring. They will stare in one of a few directions, notably toward Stormwind to the west. When you enter the room, you'll notice that the room is slightly darker than the rest of the building. When the children are there (although I'm not sure if it will happen when they aren't there) you will hear one of several ominous and terrifying voice clips. Most famous is "you will die." Sometimes the children will actually leave the room and run off toward the Valley of Heroes in Stormwind or to the southeast corner of Northshire. When they get there, they'll just stand there, the same boy in the middle, and the other five will form the pentagram again, sometimes changing positions. Worst of all, the event is never explained at all. Speculation is that the Scourge are involved somehow.
** They can occasionally be found in patterns other than a pentagram. This troper has observed (or more correctly, is currently observing) [http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg307/NJ_Ninja/DemonChildren-1.png the children in an hourglass-like formation].
** Their room is exactly 666 yards from Stormwind.
* On the subject of ''Warcraft'', believe it or not, at one point Blizzard was planning on making a game where the orcs would invade the modern-day world; you know, the one we live in right now. They abandoned the idea after they realized such a game wouldn't fit in with the feel of the Warcraft Universe, among other things. A lot of Warcraft fans agree with that move, but then you get hit with the [[Fridge Logic]] of what would happen if the [[Omnicidal Maniac|Burning Legion]] did indeed invade our modern-day world. Our nuclear weapons may have worked in [[World War II]], but they would probably just ''tickle'' [[Ultimate Evil|Sargeras]].
