The Kor'uhl tribe on Draenor was a tribe of Draenei since long separated from the bulk of their people. It is not known why.
In their separation the Kor'uhl became a primitive people, far from the advanced, noble Draenei of, for instance, Telredor and Shattrath.
Developing their own tribal language, culture and traditions, the Kor'uhl, meaning "Blood-Children" in their own tongue, became resemblant of some of the less noble Orc tribes, relishing in the thrill of hunting and killing and the glory of bloodshed.
While the Kor'uhl mostly kept to themselves they had limited trade to some Orc tribes as well as other Draenei and for a brief time, the Arrakoa.
Their savagery and ferocity led to Kor'uhl warriors and hunters making up a part of the later generations of Vindicators that eventually came to serve the Hand of Argus, the Aldor, and the Sha'tar, a task they gladly took to serve the Light.
The Kor'uhl are and remains a zealous people, to a dangerous extent. They shunned all things arcane, druidic and shamanistic to the degree where they would react violently to keep these things out of their village and the surrounding lands.
As well, many other things were considered "impure" to the Light by the Kor'uhl, such as birth-defects, which had to be "purged" before the child could be a member of the tribe, an often fatal procedure for the newborn. Heresy of all sorts, ranging from the use of arcane magic and mutations of flesh and mind, to homosexuality and cowardice, were all punished with death as the "final purification".
Kor'uhl village lay in a deep valley far south of Auchindoun, a valley that was shattered with the destruction of Draenor, however Kor'uhl village had long been sacked by that time.
When the first Orcish Bloodthirst came Kor'uhl was raided by several orc groups, firstly in smaller numbers but their raids eventually growing in strength. Even though ferocious fighters, they stood little chance against Gul'dan's Horde without allies, and their seclusiveness eventually became their downfall.
It is not known how many Kor'uhl remain alive.
