Lore
Darkspear Trolls under Vol'jin share the red canyons of Durotar with Thrall's Orcs. Forever keeps the island-exile-into-Horde story in Classic-era framing, with Darkspear identity and Orgrimmar services sitting side by side. On the kit side, Berserking is the haste racial for every damage role, Beast Slaying helps open-world and Hunter targets, Regeneration keeps Health ticking harder (including a slice in combat), and Rapid Regeneration is the channeled emergency heal. Forever newly opens Warlock so Darkspear finally covers the last major caster gap on an already wide class list.
Faction, capital, and leader
Trolls fight for the Horde. The tribal capital named for Forever Classic-era framing is Darkspear under Vol'jin, while Orgrimmar stays the practical shared hub for trainers, auctions, and travel. Use that split when you talk identity versus logistics.
Starting in Durotar

Who should roll Troll
Roll Troll if you want Berserking haste on almost any Horde damage fantasy. Hunter loves Beast Slaying, Mage and Priest love the wide caster access, and new Warlock fills the last hole. Shaman, Rogue, and Warrior stay strong when you value regeneration tools and a shared Durotar start with Orc.
