The Frostwolf clan, named after their kinship with their frost wolves, was one of the original orc clans from the world of Draenor. They were one of the smaller clans, with only about eighty orcs. Their homeland was in Frostfire Ridge, though with the changing of the seasons they would move to Nagrand near the Mountain of Spirits, Oshu'gun. Every winter when the clefthoof herds would migrate, the clan would follow.  Unlike other clans they prided themselves on suppressing rage and avoided falling into bloodlust, for they knew that those that succumb to the beast within become their own greatest enemy. The last clan to accept the invitation of Gul'dan's Horde, the Frostwolves (then led by Durotan, Son of Garad) had refused to partake in drinking The Blood of Mannoroth and later refused other fel influences.
Determined to break away from demonic influence and establish peace between themselves and humanity, the Frostwolves would be driven to the brink of extinction when The Horde turned upon them by order of Gul’dan. One of the few to survive this purge was the infant son of the Durotan and Draka, Go’el. In time Go’el would rally the clans of The Horde and restore their once honorable ways of life.Â
