Draenei Timeline

Draenei

• 25,030 years ago

Flight from Argus - A good majority of the Eredar of Argus follow Kil'jaeden and Archimonde, two of their leaders, into the ranks of Sargeras. The other Eredar join Velen in joining the Naaru and escape on the dimensional ship Oshu'gun, becoming the Draenei.

• 960 years ago

Arrival on Draenor - After a long time of running away from the pursuing Burning Legion, the Draenei came across the land of Draenor and settle down with the peaceful and shamanistic Orcs. Although they don't mingle much with these warriors, they are in good relations.

• 35 years ago

Massacre - The Orcs, fuelled by the demon blood of Mannoroth, turn into savage warriors and suddenly turn on the Draenei, rampaging through their lands and killing as many of the peaceful Draenei as they can. A very large majority of the Draenei were killed and the remaining either were corrupted and turned into Broken or Lost while the others found refuge in Zangarmarsh.

Escape - The Draenei gain knowledge of the Tempest Keep appearing in the Outland (formally Draenor) and lead an assault on the Blood Elven controlled fortress. They gain the dimensional ship, Exodar, and bring all of their people upon it and escape. However, the Blood Elves sabotaged the engine and it plummets down into Azeroth, crashing.

Note: The date of their arrival onto Draenor is conflicted by different sources.
