The Consortium

You'll be hard pressed to find ethereals more honest, hard-working or pleasant to be around than us. All we require is loyalty, dedication, and a reasonable amount of moral flexibility - Consortium Recruiter

Proving that even ethereals can have the souls of goblins, the Consortium seeks to develop the resources of Outland and its people for the purposes of trade. Nexus-Prince Haramad rules from the Netherstorm, where Karaaz is the primary Consortium vendor, but (because trade goes whereever there are markets to exploit), you may even find their presence in far distant lands.

Quests

Gaining favor with the Consortium just requires assisting them with their business endeavors. The Consortium provides a series of tasks, beginning with recruitment ("[66] The Consortium Needs You!") by a Consortium Recruiter (conveniently found outside Telaar or Garadar) to tasks around Oshu'gun in Nagrand and finally to the Netherstorm itself. Upon reaching Honored, a new questline opens involving the Ethereum Prison.

Repeatable Reputation Quests for the Consortium

The Consortium has a number of operations which could use some mortal assistance. Until Friendly with the Consortium, you may retrieve crystal fragments from the Oshu'gun diamond or Pairs of Ivory Tusks from wild elekks. Beginning at Friendly, you can gain reputation by "removing obstacles" to Consortium activities.
