Altar of Storms (Burning Steppes)



An Altar of Storms can be found in the Burning Steppes, in the shadow of Blackrock Spire. Warlock members of the Blackrock clan have taken over the area and perform strange rituals at the altar. On a hill to the west lies the home of Gorzeeki Wildeyes, which has been swarmed by hostile Blackrock orcs.

Gorzeeki Wildeyes can be found at a small campsite near the entrance to the area, waiting for a chance to get his home back. Prior to the Cataclysm, he lived here studying the altar under his warlock master, Mor'zul Bloodbringer.

In the RPG
Orc warlocks in the Second War invented a method to grant intelligence and magical powers to their ogre allies. This method involved arcane edifices such as this Altar of Storms. It is located in Searing Gorge and it is one of the few remaining from the Second War. The altar is cracked and scarred, but its remaining energies draw elementals and ogre magi to the area. A dangerous place.
