Characteristics

Pyrewood Village is an Alliance village north of King's Road within the Silverpine Forest. The village is a settlement inhabited by a group of humans who have survived the coming of the Scourge, though not without paying a large price. The village survived the Plague due to the efforts of the blood elves and later due to the military aid of Dalaran.^{[citation needed]}

Pyrewood's inhabitants have been cursed so that they undergo a nightly transformation into the bestial worgen (measured at 8:59PM–9:00PM server time), then return to their human forms upon the arrival of dawn. It is during this time that they become hostile​ to all players regardless of faction. Despite all its hardships, however, the village continues to service Alliance travellers by selling cloth, leather, and mail armor to customers. Just a little south of the village is an unmarked grave.

Pyrewood Village will be updated with Gilnean architecture and surroundings. It is presumed that it was originally a part of the kingdom of Gilneas before the Greymane Wall was erected, as stated by King Genn Greymane during Old Divisions. It also hints that Darius Crowley may originally come from Pyrewood.
