While dataminers have sussed out a great deal of information about World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth's story, huge gaps still remain—particularly when it comes to some of the bigger heroines and their motivations. That's what Warbringers, a three-part series of animated shorts about Warcraft's most powerful women, looks to help establish.

The first film, focusing on Jaina Proudmoore, is gorgeous and rousing. As one of the oldest Warcraft characters, Jaina's story hasn't been an easy one to follow. After things went so poorly with Arthas during Warcraft 3, she endured several tragedies during the life of World of Warcract. Arguably the most devastating was when she sabotaged her father's attempts to fight the Horde, ultimately resulting in his death. Jaina believed he was stuck in the past and blinded by his hatred, but after the Horde destroyed her neutral city-state of Theramore, Jaina has since changed her mind, as evidenced by her saying "I'm listening now, father" at the end of the short.
