List of Warcraft creatures

There are many different creatures that exist in the Warcraft franchise.

The beasts are the most standard type of animals in the Warcraft universe. Nearly all beasts can be skinned while others can be tamed by hunters.

Critters are typically harmless and low-level creatures.

Demons are hateful, twisted, or otherwise inherently evil creatures of the Twisting Nether who take pleasure in the suffering of others. Most of the demons in Azeroth and/or Outland are members of the Burning Legion. Most demons were converted to demonic beings by the Burning Legion after their worlds were conquered.

The dragonkin include all dragons and creatures descended from dragons.

Elementals are chaotic manifestations of the elements including Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Mana, Shadow, and Life. The elementals were minions of the Old Gods and were banished to the Elemental Plane after the Titans defeated the Old Gods.

There were also some elemental conglomerates ranging from dual elementals (made up of two elementals), triumvirate elementals (made up of three elementals), and complete elementals (made up of four elementals):

Giants are huge creatures that are usually humanoid in appearance. Many of the giants that dwell on Azeroth were created by the Titans as part of their ordering of Azeroth.

For a list of humanoid races, see Races and factions of Warcraft.

Mechanicals are moving devices created through a mix of engineering and magic. Mechanicals are also called "robots." Most mechanicals are found in Gnomeregan where most of them can be controlled by the Gnomish Universal Remote.

Undead are animate creatures that are already dead. They were once-living creatures that are now animated by spiritual or supernatural forces, including reanimated corpses and disembodied spirits. Most undead are controlled by the Scourge.
