A wandering warrior of faith, Maraad is a pillar of draenei society and one of their most notable [[ThePaladin Vindicators]]. His sister was captured and raped by orcs as part of Gul'dan's experiments, giving birth to his niece [[ChildByRape Garona]] before dying. Prior to ''Wrath of the Lich King'' he helped out his niece and her son Med'an against Cho'gall and the Twilight's hammer. He subsequently served in the war in Northrend and returned to instruct others in the ways of the Light. He is set to play a major role in ''Warlords of Draenor'' as he travels back in time to the alternate universe Draenor.

During the Pandaria campaign, Velen is called upon to tend to Anduin when the latter is critically wounded by Garrosh. Later, during Garrosh's trial, Tyrande, the prosecutor, calls upon Velen in an attempt to discredit the Horde by having him tell the court of his people's near genocide at the Orcs' hands. While Velen does not deny that his people suffered terribly at the Orcs hands, he reaffirmed that he does not believe the entirety of the Horde nor the Orcs should bear the full blame of the massacre.

A character subpage for the [=WarCraft=] universe, including ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. For the main character page, [[Characters/{{Warcraft}} see here]].

Nearly 25,000 years ago, the Eredar of Argus lived in peace. That didn't last. Their mastery of magic attracted the attention of the Burning Legion and its leader, Sargeras, led the Eredar into corruption. Two of the Eredar's three leaders, Kil'jaeden and Archimonde, fell into the corruption of fel magic. The third leader, Velen, prophesied what was to come and led those who would listen away from demonic corrupption.

The uncorrupted Eredar were hunted by their kinsmen until the Naaru K'ure, an alien being of pure Light, came to rescue them. From then on, the uncorrupted Eredar were known as the "exiled ones" or "draenei" and fled Legion pursuit. After they finally seemed to lose the Legion, a weakened K'ure, unable to power its vessel, crashed into a planet and stranded the draenei. The draenei named the planet Draenor and were on relatively good terms with the native orcs.

However, the Legion would turn the orcs into a Horde and raze draenei civilization. Some of them mutated into "broken" and "lost ones" from a demonic taint that robbed them of their connection to the Light. New visitors, Illidan Stormrage, Lady Vashj, and Kael'thas Sunstrider, appeared on Outland years later, the Broken Akama and his Ashetongue Deathsworn joining them. The recovering survivors hid away for years until the Naaru came with a new vessel, Tempest Keep.

When Kael'thas came to the Netherstorm, he stormed Velen's refuge at Tempest Keep and stole its Naaru, M'uru, for himself. Velen and his followers sieged the keep to retake the ''Exodar'' wing and escape Draenor. They were successful but blood elf saboteurs caused them to crash on Azeroth. After this, the draenei joined forces with the Alliance to fight in Outland... and, arguably, haven't done much since then.

* ADayInTheLimelight: They are the heaviest featured Alliance race in ''Warlords of Draenor.''
* [[BigRedDevil Big Blue Devil]]: Face tentacles aside, the draenei physically look like this. It's because their former kinsmen, the Eredar, fit this trope and the current incarnation of the draenei is far removed from their depiction in ''Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne'''.
* CrystalSpiresAndTogas: Similar to Quel'Thalas or Dalaran. Added Emphasis on ''crystal''.
* GlowingEyes
* HeavenlyBlue
* [[HigherTechSpecies Higher Tech Race]]: Noticeably and probably due to Naaru influence. They are capable of interstellar space flight, have holographic communicators, and live in a sattelite to begin with.
* HolierThanThou: Some draenei fall into this but it's been proven not to be true. In ''Cataclysm'', there are draenei in the Cult of the Damned studying the techniques of a torture expert calld "the Butcher" and draenei in the Twilight's Hammer trying to bring about the apocalypse.
* LightIsGood: This is a religion to the humans, dwarves, high elves, and some gnomes but to the draenei it's ''their entire philosophy'' to the point that their leader is a prophet and they revere the Naaru who can be described as [[StarfishAlien windchimes]] made of Light.
** GoodIsNotSoft: Reports from those who played the Warlords of Draenor beta at Blizzcon seem to imply that the alternate timeline draenei are this, or at least more savage than the current timeline draenei.
* OutOfFocus: Arguably the most out of every playable race, on both Alliance and Horde. In fact, they're ''so much'' out of focus that in the novel ''Wolfheart'' the night elves assumed they had left the Alliance and so didn't invite Velen to the Alliance meeting.
** They'll finally get their time to shine in ''Warlords of Draenor.''
* ProudScholarRace: Type II, with males built like tanks. See SpaceElves.
* RubberForeheadAlien
* SpaceElves: Type II. See ProudScholarRace.
* WhiteMagic: All draenei can channel a bit of Light to regenerate themselves or their allies using "Gift of the Naaru".

http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/velen_border_big_9758.png
->''"Not all who wander are lost."''
->'''Voiced by:''' Alan Shearman
->'''Class:''' Priest

The only one of the three Eredar lords approached by Sargeras to reject his offer of power. He has a gift of prophecy that allowed him to see ''exactly'' where that path would lead, and with the help of the Naaru, beings of pure Light, he led the like-minded draenei (Eredun for "exiles") into becoming interdimensional refugees.
----
* BrokenPedestal: Played with in ''Warlords of Draenor''. In the alternate timeline, some of his people have lost faith in his prophecies and ability to lead after he failed to predict/prevent the arrival of the Iron Horde.
* BadassGrandpa: Albeit of a more cerebral/spiritual bent.
* CainAndAbel: A line made at the Sunwell Plateau implies he and Kil'jaeden are brothers. This is almost certainly figurative, but even so.
* CassandraTruth: Kil'jaeden and Archimonde don't believe him even when he psychically shares his vision with them. It's what makes him realize that they're too far gone.
* CoolOldGuy: To the point that he's essentially a blue-skinned Expy of Gandalf.
* ElderlyImmortal: While he's not the only draenei who remembers Argus (Velen's {{immortality}} has been recently confirmed, and all uncorrupted draenei are known to be either TheAgeless or just ridiculously LongLived), he's one of the few who actually looks old.
* GoodShepherd: In a way. He chose exile and "betray" someone he loved as a brother rather than see all of his race changed into demons. Also in his backstory he heals people once he understands he needs to live more in the now than in the past or the future.
* HealingHands
* HolyHandGrenade
* LightEmUp: He will demonstrate that not all WhiteMagic is for healing if a raid comes to the Exodar.
* MagicStaff
* OddFriendship: With Durotan in ''Rise of the Horde''.
* OldMaster
* PropheciesAreAlwaysRight
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Nobundo tells new Draenei shamans how Velen supported Draenei becoming shamans when it was less accepted among the Draenei.
* SelfFulfillingProphecy: A ''[[OurAngelsAreDifferent godlike being]]'' went ''willingly'' into torturous enslavement because Velen knew it would happen.
* StrangeBedfellows: With Lady Liadrin during the Sunwell event.
* WizardBeard
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: Because there are a bunch of demons there that want to kill you horribly. And it's not fully clear that his people even ''have'' a home to go back to (considering the damage the Orc warlocks did to Draenor, one can only imagine what became of Argus).

!!Farseer Nobundo
http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/farseer_nobundo_border_big_1941.png
->''"Everything that is, is alive."''
->'''Class:''' Shaman

Once a vindicator, Nobundo was one of the draenei that fought the orcs at Shattrath. He and a few others survived, but were terribly disfigured and lost their ability to contact the Light due to a mysterious demonic curse. After being exiled for fear of their condition being contagious, Nobundo was contacted by the elements of Draenor and became the first draenei Shaman. He and the other "Broken" were eventually accepted back into draenei society, and Nobundo began to instruct others in shamanism.
----
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: The uncorrupted draenei deliberately isolate the Broken, and the adoption of shamanism ("an orcish practice") is not received well at first.
* HandicappedBadass: Aside from being a Broken, he seems to be somewhat arthritic, and was injured in the siege of Shattrath.
* HeroicSacrifice / SelfSacrificeScheme: He and the others at Shattrath only stayed behind to trick the orcs (and Kil'jaeden) into believing that all the draenei were dead.
* LookWhatICanDoNow: The moment that he stands up to the draenei opposing him.
* ShellShockedVeteran: Complete with nightmares, though he seemed to be getting better by the end of ''Unbroken''.

->'''Class:''' Paladin

A wandering warrior of faith, Maraad is a pillar of draenei society and one of their most notable [[ThePaladin Vindicators]]. His sister was captured and raped by orcs as part of Gul'dan's experiments, giving birth to his niece [[ChildByRape Garona]] before dying. Prior to ''Wrath of the Lich King'' he helped out his niece and her son Med'an against Cho'gall and the Twilight's hammer. He subsequently served in the war in Northrend and returned to instruct others in the ways of the Light. He is set to play a major role in ''Warlords of Draenor'' as he travels back in time to the alternate universe Draenor.
----
* AscendedExtra: He was the draenei who appeared in the cinematic trailer for ''The Burning Crusade,'' then he appeared in the comics and as a minor NPC in Northrend, and now he's a major character in ''Warlords of Draenor.''
* DropTheHammer: His favored weapon is a large crystal hammer. [[http://www.wowhead.com/item=28800 Players can get a copy of it for themselves.]]
* GoodIsNotNice: He gets downright scary when he's angry.
* GoodIsNotSoft: While friendly enough, he can be rather ruthless and is not afraid to get his hands dirty.
* HealingHands
* HolyHandGrenade
* LightEmUp: He's a very capable Light-user, managing to face off against a dark shaman and keep him at bay despite not having slept for six days.

A draenei paladin from the alternate timeline Draenor in ''Warlords of Draenor''. Yrel starts as a naïve priestess on Draenor, but when the Iron Horde begins its path of conquest she must stand up and become a hero for the draenei and the Alliance.
