30-second TL;DR
Adventure Guide says
- It is said the Deadmines' gold deposits once accounted for a third of Stormwind's treasure reserves.
- Amid the chaos of the First War, the mines were abandoned and later thought to be haunted, leaving them relatively untouched until the Defias Brotherhood--a group of former laborers turned brigands--claimed the labyrinth as a base of operations for its subversive activities against Stormwind.
- The Adventure Guide lists 18 encounters: Glubtok, Helix Gearbreaker, Foe Reaper 5000, Admiral Ripsnarl, "Captain" Cookie, Vanessa VanCleef, Rhahk'Zor, "Captain" Cookie, Admiral Ripsnarl, Foe Reaper 5000, Helix Gearbreaker, Glubtok, Sneed, Gilnid, Mr. Smite, Captain Greenskin, Edwin VanCleef, Cookie.
