Lore
Reno Jackson is original to Hearthstone, and one of the few Hearthstone characters to have later been added to World of Warcraft instead of the other way around. Reno's journey started in the Badlands as 
Reno, Lone Ranger.
- Long before Reno joined the League of Explorers, he was just a lone wanderer in search of profit. He heard through the great vine that Bloodrock was the place to get rich (or die trying, with a name like that). After wandering to town in search of a bountry, Reno was hired by Sheriff Eustace Barrlebrim to bring a group of outlaws to justice. In the sheriff's own words, these outlaws were the vilest, sickest scum on this side of Azeroth. But after signing the mayor's contract and pursuing the bounty, Reno found the truth: The outlaw boss was none other than the noble
Elise Starseeker. Turns out the real villain was the sheriff himself, and the Azerite strip mine outside of the town was destabilizing the entirety of the Badlands. The townsfolk were digging up anything to get to those Azerite treasures. And the bad news was, if they kept this excavation up, the Badlands would be destroyed.[2]
After these events, Reno and Elise begin their journey into joining the League of Explorers.
- World-renowned archaeologist, explorer, and treasure hunter... or so he says.
- His membership in the League of Explorers is currently on probation. Just make sure that all artifacts you collect with Reno are properly accounted for upon your return.[3]
Impulsive, obsessed with magic and treasure, and hard to control, Reno is the player's escort in the first wing of the The League of Explorers, the Temple of Orsis. For his role in the adventure, see The League of Explorers.
Reno returns in Saviors of Uldum with the rest of the League of Explorers to stop the League of E.V.I.L.'s plans in Uldum, this time being known as 
Reno the Relicologist and wielding a "Gatling wand".
Finally, Reno is the star of Galakrond's Awakening from the League of Explorers side, working to stop 
Arch-Villain Rafaam from awakening 
Galakrond. His unquenchable affinity for magic and treasure is explained in the climax of the League storyline—where it is revealed that Reno is actually an orphaned blue dragon who has accidentally been living in his human form since birth!
Trivia
- Reno Jackson was the first card to have an effect dependent on having no duplicate cards in the player's deck, and introduced the concept of no-duplicate decks to Hearthstone, also called "Highlander". After the success of the card, other deck-related cards were added in later releases, the first coming just over a year later with Mean Streets of Gadgetzan.
- Reno Jackson is also depicted on Forgotten Torch, Roaring Torch.,[4] and Pilfer.
- Reno Jackson makes an appearance in the cinematic trailer for One Night in Karazhan, where he can be seen relaxing in a hot tub along with Sir Finley Mrrgglton and a cow. He is also wearing a golden medallion resembling the head of the Golden Monkey.
- "Reno" is "Oner" spelt backwards, possibly a reference to the fact that he is only active when there is one copy of each card left in deck.
