Stormwind (faction)

Stormwind is the faction associated with Stormwind City, the capital of the Alliance humans as well as the Kingdom of Stormwind. It is located in the northwestern part of Elwynn Forest. It was formerly ruled by the young child king Anduin Wrynn, regent Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, and Lady Katrana Prestor, before the return of Anduin's father, King Varian Wrynn, just before the war against the Lich King.

Recently however the Kingdom once again came under the rule of Anduin Wrynn after the death of his father at the Broken Shore at the start of the Burning Legion's third invasion.
