The Felfire Cult is a fanatical cult made up of Burning Legion loyalists. Ever since the cult's founding, it's goal has always been to serve the Burning Legion in any way they can, while focusing on pursuing and studying fel magic.
History
Founding
The cult was initially founded as a group dedicated to studying fel power by Galkorg Bloodtooth, one of Gul'dan's first students. He believed that fel power was a power that could be used to forge a new destiny for the orc people, and sought to teach others of it's power. As the cult grew in size, Galkorg began to send the cult on missions to recruit more members. Draenei, ogres, and even arakkoa joined the cult.
It was at this time that Lord Keliir, a man'ari eredar commander within the Burning Legion, contacted Galkorg. He told Galkorg that if he served him, he would have access to more sources of fel power, as well as a small demon army. Galkorg readily agreed, and used these demons to assist in the cult's missions.
March of Iron
Eventually, the Iron Horde came into existence after Gul'dan's capture. Galkorg told the cult that he would be infliltrating the ranks of the Iron Horde to rescue Gul'dan, and left the Council of Fel in charge. Among the councillors was Kaggoresh Spiritsunder, an ambitious Shadowmoon orc who sought nothing more than to fight for the Legion. He was a fearsome warlock, and one of Galkorg's favorite students.
When the Dark Portal was opened, Galkorg went through, and worked with a Horde warrior known as Engosh Axefury to fight the Iron Horde. He eventually helped free Gul'dan, and returned to the cult's base of operations within Gorgrond. The cult then began to assist in Shadow Council operations throughout Draenor.
An Offer of Fel
Around the same time as the siege of the Blackrock Foundry, Galkorg Bloodtooth began scavenging through the ruins of Gul'rok in search of a hidden cache of demon blood left behind by Gul'dan's forces. He intended to deliver the blood to Gul'dan for use in his offer to Grommash. While successful in sending the demon blood to the rest of the Shadow Council, Galkorg was captured by a joint Alliance-Horde team, and kept captive in Zangarra by the Kirin Tor.
Galkorg was later freed by the Felfire Cult after a costly attack on Zangarra.
Battle in Tanaan
The Felfire Cult eventually built up a base in Tanaan Jungle, underneath the Throne of Kil'jaeden. There, they worked to further their understanding of fel magic while the Alliance and Horde marched on Hellfire Citadel. Galkorg later led the defense at the Iron Front, before being confronted by the Alliance-Horde team he encountered in the past. The team managed to defeat his forces with the help of Iron Horde defectors, forcing him to retreat to the base.
The team eventually arrived in the cave, where they fought Galkorg and his forces. The result was the death of Galkorg Bloodtooth.
Annihilation and Rebirth
After the death of Galkorg, the cult was in chaos as the Council of Fel rushed to fill the void. In the midst of the chaos, Kaggoresh Spiritsunder took Galkorg's place, swearing to bring forth a new era of hope for the cult. Lord Keliir contacted Kaggoresh, telling him to move the cult's forces to Azeroth. Kaggoresh readily agreed, preparing to move the cult.
However, the Alliance and Horde eventually attacked the cult's base, slaughtering their members and leaving Kaggoresh as the sole survivor. He made his way to Azeroth on his own, swearing to bring forth a new era for the cult in Azeroth. He recruited new members into the cult from Azeroth's races, slowly rebuilding it. At some point, the cult obtained the Codex of the Illidari, a powerful object that could be used to control and subjugate demon hunters.
The Coming Invasion
Kaggoresh began to ready his forces for the Burning Legion's invasion of Azeroth at one point, taking over Dreadmist Peak. However, they were pushed out of Kalimdor and forced to regroup in Suramar City, where they would set up a new base of operations and prepared to conduct different operations throughout the Broken Isles. Kaggoresh also managed to bring Mor'goz into the cult, who was the sole survivor of the cult's main timeline counterpart.
Stormheim
The Felfire Cult focused on corrupting the Thorignir in Stormheim, while also recruiting Felskorn vrykul.
Highmountain
Bloodtotem tauren and black dragon eggs were their targets in Highmountain.
Val'sharah
The cult was focused on aiding the spread of the Nightmare, though they didn't have many forces in Val'sharah.
