Valthiar Wiki

Welcome to Valthiar Wiki, an alternate universe wiki for World of Warcraft. With lore that has been developing for over three years, the universe has a lot to offer that cannot be seen in regular WoW lore pages.

About Valthiar
"Valthiar" (named after the Valthian faction) is an alternate universe for World of Warcraft that alters the established retail lore into something much more. Some of these changes may be seen as more realistic in comparison to retail, such as differing genetic makeup of certain faction's ethnicities, rather than an unrealistic blend of all different ethnicities (though this may differ depending on the faction.) We arguably take more influence from real world cultures/events in developing the lore, such as political ideologies playing a distinct role in the identity of a faction. It can also be said that we provide more explanation behind the different aspects of the game, such as greater detail into what it is like to use izarimancy (soul magic) rather than simply explaining what it does. Darker themes are much more present in the Vathiar Universe compared to the retail universe; rape, execution, torture, etc. are not left out of the lore.

In Game
This lore does not simply exist online, but it is created in the World of Warcraft private server Epsilon where events such as wars or political summits are done, and of course where the factions are built. On Epsilon we are capable of creating the characters featured on this page and they may be seen in game, though being it is a massive universe, development is always underway in game.
