Deadmines
Dungeon ID: 63Classic · Dungeon · Requires level 35
It is said the Deadmines' gold deposits once accounted for a third of Stormwind's treasure reserves. Amid the chaos of the First War, the mines were abandoned and later thought to be haunted, leaving them relatively untouched until the Defias Brotherhood--a group of former laborers turned brigands--claimed the labyrinth as a base of operations for its subversive activities against Stormwind.

Copied!Captain of the juggernaut-in-progress, Greenskin hails from Booty Bay where he formerly led a fleet of pirate vessels.
Cookie

Edwin VanCleef

Helix Gearbreaker
Copied!Formerly a craftsman in the Bilgewater Cartel, Helix was offered a sum eclipsing anything he would ever make as a nameless Horde engineer to ply his trade for the Defias Brotherhood. He was quick to accept the job and renounce his former loyalties... just as any resourceful goblin would.
