Once a nomadic people, the Tauren roamed the endless plains of the Barrens hunting the mighty Kodo.
Scattered across the land, the wandering tribes were united only by their common hatred for their sworn enemy, the marauding Centaur. Seeking aid against the Centaur, the great chieftan Cairne Bloodhoof befriended the savage Orcs who had recently journeyed to Kalimdor. With the Orcs' help, Cairne and his tribe were able to drive back the Centaur and claim the grassliands of Mulgore for their own.
Upon the windswept mesa of Thunderbluff, Bloodhoof built a refuge for his people.
Over time, the scattered tribes united under a single banner.
Though the noble Tauren are peaceful in nature, the rights of the Great Hunt are venerated as the heart of their spiritual culture.
As a tribesman of Mulgore, you must test your skills in the wild and prove yourself in the Great Hunt.
