Sholazar Basin Introduction & Zone Description

Sholazar Basin is is a tropical jungle, located in the west of Northrend. The zone is very similar to Un'Goro Crater in Kalimdor, not only in terms of the tropical climate, but also the geographical similarities. Scholozar Basin is in between Borean Tundra and Icecrown. Because of this, the zone is surrounded by high cliffs, stretching all around the zone. Scholazar Basin has also several waterfalls, falling down from Lake Wintergrasp and the ocean.The zone is covered by hot springs and geysers. The hot climate has created a thick vegetation, as well as a rich animal wildlife.

This has eventually woken the curiosity of Hemet Nesingwary & friends. This strange and undiscovered tropical zone, is the home of many species and animals never before seen by Azeroth's races. It is pretty safe to assume that the Nesingwary expedition is out here to shoot down and capture wild animals living in the area. For this reason, another group of animal lovers has shown up.

D.E.H.T.A.(Druids for the Ethical and Humane Treatment of Animals). In an effort to try saving the animals of Northrend, has established a base in the Borean Tundra. Adventurers will be asked to help D.E.H.T.A. in their effort to stop the Nesingwary expedition.

Sholazar Basin is also the home of the opposing factions of gorlocs (The Oracles) and wolvars (The Frenzyhearts). In a way similar to the Aldor and Scryer factions, adventurers will have to choose one of the factions to ally themselves with.
