[Spoiler warningSpoiler warning]: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Tyrande fought during the First Invasion of the Burning Legion, and was present at the destruction of the original Well of Eternity. She was long the love interest of both Malfurion Stormrage and his brother Illidan, though it was Malfurion to whom she returned the affection. It could be suggested that her rejection of Illidan is what led him to betray the other Night Elves and recreate the Well of Eternity, though his addiction to arcane magic undoubtedly contributed.

When Malfurion Stormrage entered a deep sleep along with the other druids, she continued to keep watch over Kalimdor. It was she that encountered the humans and orcs that had come to flee from Lordaeron, and it was she that woke Malfurion to seek his guidance.

Against Malfurion's wishes, she also released Illidan from his imprisonment, killing several Wardens in the process (something for which Maiev Shadowsong has not forgiven her). Illidan's presence helped for a while before his desire for power (as well as intervention by Arthas) led him to consume the Skull of Gul'Dan.

Tyrande was present at the Battle of Mount Hyjal, in which the demon Archimonde was destroyed along with the World Tree, thus effectively ending the Second Invasion of the Burning Legion.

In the Frozen Throne, Tyrande, along with Malfurion, helped Maiev to recapture Illidan. Their search led them to Lordaeron, where they befriended with Kael'thas of the Blood Elves. They agreed to assist Kael'thas in protecting his people from the marauding Scourge. Although they were successful, Tyrande risked her life to stop the undead, and was swept downriver. Maiev, who witnessed the event, lied about her death to Malfurion. Kael'thas, Maiev, and Malfurion went on to defeat the Naga, and managed to recapture Illidan, but Kael'thas revealed to Malfurion that Tyrande was, in fact, alive. Incapacitating Maiev to prevent her interference, he and Illidan left to help Tyrande. They succeeded, and Illidan managed to escape Maiev to Outland after bidding farewell to Tyrande and Malfurion. In World of Warcraft there is a night elf NPC in shadowglen named Orenthil Whisperwind. Some players speculate that this NPC is the child of Malfurion and Tyrande, the child taking Tyrande's last name because of his father's absence. Another name who has the same last name as Tyrande's is, Mave Whisperwind, one playable Priestess of the Moon hero. She may be Tyrande Whisperwind's sister, or a relative.
