The Tuskar, a friendly race who seem to have drawn the ire of several groups recently.
As I’m sure most adventurers have, I’ve been happily helping them to defend their homes and their people, but when I arrived at their settlement in Dragonblight I paused. For those who don’t know, one of the daily quests linked to the Tuskar requires you to raid a nearby Wolvar settlement and to kidnap twelve of their cubs. This is under the guise that the Tuskar want to raise them in a way that makes sure that they will not be a danger to the Tuskar.
On the surface this seems like a noble cause, but is it? To get the cubs you have to murder their mother in front of them, and then bundle them into your pack. I know that having that done to me would not make me less likely to be violent.
In the end I did the quest anyway, but I felt bad about it every time. I have to applaud Blizzard for creating something that in my mind creates a real moral dilemma. I feel it’s representative of the more gritty and darkstyle that WotLK has about it.
