1. Who was chosen to form the infamous undead scourge, which shall scour the lands of Azeroth and Lordaeron of all life?

From Quiz Story of "Warcraft" - The Formation of the Scourge

Answer: Ner'zul

When "Warcraft-2X Beyond the Dark Portal" ends, we see that Ner'zul who lead the Shadowmoon clan escaped with his faithful orcs and death knights through the biggest of the dark portals he had created. It was at the ends of this very portal, however, that Kil'jaedan the deceiver who swore to kill him after his betrayal lay in wait. He destroys Ner'zul's physical form and transfers his throne to the northrend. From then onwards, he shall be known as The Lich King.

Answer: Orcs & Orc

Before the orcs were brought to Azeroth, Kil'jaedan had to make sure they had the bloodlust that was expected of them. So, he made them drink Mannoroth's blood, because of which, they became his servants forever.

Answer: Dreadlords

Though Ner'zul was agreeable and seemingly anxious to play his part, Kil'jaeden remained skeptical of his servant's loyalties. Keeping the Lich King bodiless and trapped within the crystal cask assured his good conduct for the short term, but the demon knew that he would need to keep a watchful eye on him. To this end, Kil'jaeden called upon his elite demon guard, the vampiric dreadlords, to police Ner'zul and ensure that he accomplished his task.

Answer: Orcs and Draenei

The Draenei, which we get to play as in the Alliance Campaign of "Warcraft 3 - The Frozen Throne" were at constant war with the horde after they had been corrupted by the agents of the legion. When Illidan agreed to help them defeat the horde, they allied themselves with him to help him conquer the pit lord's black citadel. They were basically infiltration experts who were experts in hiding and attacking.

Answer: Thrall

Blackmoore taught Thrall about tactics, philosophy, and combat. The Orc was even trained as a gladiator. All the while, the corrupt warden sought to mold him into a weapon. Despite his harsh upbringing, young Thrall grew into a strong, quick-witted orc, and he knew in his heart that a slave's life was not for him. As he grew to maturity, he learned about his people, the orcs, whom he had never met: after their defeat, most of them had been placed in internment camps.

To symbolize his people's rebirth, Thrall returned to Blackmoore's fortress of Durnholde and put a decisive end to his former master's plans by laying siege to the internment camps.

Answer: Information on where Aegwyn had buried Sargeras' crippled body

Through a joint effort, Medivh and the warlocks of the Shadow Council opened the dimensional gateway known as the Dark Portal.

Gul'dan agreed to it since he thought that the price which Medivh had promised was worth the risk he was about to undertake.

When Medivh was about to die, he and Gul'dan were connected in mind, since Gul'dan wanted to find out the location of Sargeras' tomb.
