I've been wondering when did Humans make the first contact with the draneis?
How long ago? (+- some years ofcourse. If the right set of years can't be provided.)

As I've read, it wasn't untill Dark Portal opening. But so far I've read so much of the varius things I've been able to find, that I'm more confused than before I started to read, so anyone able to help out?

The Draenei met Danath Trollbane and his forces in Outland first but the Humans in general did not know of them until they crashed on Azeroth.

On azeroth it was about 3 years ago, 4 at the outside.

This cannot be right as isn't the Cataclysm five years after Lich King? Considering that Burning Crusade was before this then we can assume it was over 5 years ago.

No. There is no major time difference between Wrath of the Lich King and Cataclysm.

Source?

I doubt the Cataclysm would occur just some weeks/months after WoTLK.

There must be because how can Anduin Wrynn be a child at the time of Lich King and then be a teenager (more grown up) at the point of Cataclysm? Also, I believe at the beginning of the Shattering (the book) it states that 5 years have passed since Lich King. Cannot be sure though as it has been a while since I read it.

He wasn't a child at the time of Lich King. He was a preteen..just no updated model.

But yeah, there's some timeskip.

The time skip happened in a book i didnt read because they are mostly trash, but apparently in the book it says its roughly 2-3 years with no firm dates given.

Think same as Cleoma. Just look at Horde new Orgrimmar, Alliance reinforced towns (well actually its only Sentienel hill that come into mind ;p ) and other stuff... I dont think they do this while wotlk when Arthas keep us busy in Northrend

Thank you all for your input.

It is appriciated.

Now another question.
Would it be possible for a human to make offspring with a dranei? (No it's not me - as I got my own opinion about this, I'll share it on another time.) -Let me just rephrase that.

Would it be possible that there is a 19 year old offspring between a human and dranei? As far as I know the humans, the common person - wouldn't have had contact with them, that long ago?

But as I've read it, and added some commonsense, to it as well.

Timescale wise:- Yeah, but they'd have to be from Outland (IE, the human was part of the Expedition).

Biology...Shouldn't be. But we have Med'an the half human half orc half draenai, so....
