History
Edwin VanCleef led the masons who rebuilt Stormwind City. When the royal family announced it could not pay for the work, he rebelled and later formed the Defias Brotherhood. The group amassed wealth by seizing mines and raiding farms 35.
By the time Li Shaolin encounters the Brotherhood, it holds territory in both Elwynn Forest and Westfall. Its occupation of Jerod's Dock forces the Makrolen family to take a costly detour when shipping wine 26. Defias members also operate at Blackwell's Pumpkin Patch, Fabron's Farm, and Rotting Grass Farm 17 38 116.
