Lore

War Master Voone is a forest troll who is encountered as a boss in Lower Blackrock Spire in World of Warcraft. He is the leader of the Smolderthorn tribe and a leading member of the sinister Dark Horde.

Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
The Dark Horde, also referred to as the "true Horde", is a renegade group of orcs, trolls, ogres, and goblins who dwell in Blackrock Spire and consist largely of the remnants of the Blackrock clan and Dragonmaw clan. They were marshaled by  Nefarian and ruled by the self-styled Warchief  Rend Blackhand. Unlike the orcs of  Thrall's Horde, they remained steadfast to the ideals of the old Horde and embraced the demonic bloodlust.
From the World of Warcraft Adventure Guide
During the Second War, Voone led small strike teams on daring missions into the heart of high elven territory. The cunning troll joined the false Horde because he wanted to be its chief strategist, not because he believed in Blackhand's ideology. Voone sees the splinter faction as an underdog, and he enjoys the satisfaction of overcoming insurmountable odds.

In Hearthstone lore, Voone has traveled all the way from Blackrock Mountain to serve as the champion of Akali's Rhinos, the warrior team in Rastakhan's Rumble.

Voone finds kindship in the rhino loa Akali. He’s a simple troll—he loves loud drums, a roaring crowd, and a raucous after-party—but his former employment by the Black Dragonflight will give Warriors special insight into the ways of dragons.[1]
[...] everybody loves War Master Voone. Not only are Voone’s parties legendary, rumor has it that he’s got friends in high places. Blackrock Mountain is pretty high up, right?[2]

Trivia

  • War Master Voone was originally announced in the promotional video Rastakhan’s Rumble: Ticket to Greatness Part 3 as a 5-mana 4/4 minion. However, this was later confirmed to be a mistake; Voone's Cost and stats were changed in development after the creation of the video, and as a result the video accidentally included an older, unused iteration of the card. The final, correct version of War Master Voone (a 4-mana 4/3) was revealed by the official Hearthstone Twitter account after the release of the video.[3][4]
