Secret Garrison NPCs

Garrisons are one of the main features of Warlords of Draenor, where players gather resources, construct buildings, recruit followers and prepare their army to stand against their enemies.

To customize your Garrison and give it some flavor, you can recruit several Secret NPCs throughout Draenor.

Miscellaneous

Dog

You can get Dog - your loyal companion from Valley of the Four Winds - to show up in your Garrison by completing the quest Lost and Lonely.

For more info about this lovely companion and how to also make him show up in the Pet Menagerie visit our guide about Dog in the Secrets Database.

Pepe

Pepe is one of the most beloved and faithful companions in World of Warcraft. Added in Warlords of Draenor, he quickly took over our hearts and became a little celebrity. Nowadays, rarely anyone chooses to venture into new content alone, and with Pepe, you've got a friend with you all the time!

For both Horde and Alliance players, Pepe can be found in the first tree on the left after exiting the main building in the Level 3 Garrison. When interacting with him, you will get a 1 hour buff that reads "You've got a friend!" which is adorable on its own. Pepe will sit on your head for that duration, or until you die. If that happens, you can go back to your Garrison and find him in the same tree. His respawn time is around 5 minutes.
