As former slaves to the Mogu empire, they managed to free themselves from the shackles. Much later, as the demon army invaded, the last Pandaren emperor shrouded their lands in mist for millennials, which allowed them to live in secrecy.
A second Pandaren society lives on a giant turtle, essentially a wandering island. They are all highly spiritual, having monk societies and organizations. They worship wild gods and can manipulate chi, energy that lets them perform amazing feats.
Pandaren are usually calm and collected, thinking things through and can be wise beyond their ears. They respect each other very much and as such their names have social weight. Good examples are Jungeun, Heechul, and Younghee.
