Stratholme

Overview

History

Once the jewel of northern Lordaeron, Stratholme is the city where Prince Arthas turned against his mentor and slaughtered his own subjects, whom he believed to be infected with the plague. Ravaged during the Third War, it burns to this day. Two sides fight over it: the Scarlet Crusade, led by Grand Crusader Dathrohan, and the Scourge, commanded by the death knight Baron Rivendare.

Access

The entrance is in northern Eastern Plaguelands. The main gate leads to the district held by the Scarlet Crusade; the service entrance, which opens with the Key to the City, leads straight to the Scourge district.
