Warcraft/Characters/The Dragonflights

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Five Dragon Aspects were created by the Titans to stand guard over Azeroth and prevent the Old Gods from breaking free of their prisons and continuing the corruption of the planet. They created their own broods of lesser dragons and were content to sleep for thousands of years as their offspring kept watch over Azeroth and its many inhabitants. However, the seeping influence of the Old Gods eventually drove them into conflict with each other and with the Alliance and Horde. They are now weakened and must rely on mortals to assist them.

Most full dragons have the ability to shapeshift and often assume the guises of humans, elves and other races when dealing with mortals. There are several draconic subraces, including Dragonspawn and Drakonids. These generally display less intelligence than their stronger brethren and act as servants and guardians of their places of power.

Black

Neltharion the Earthwarder/Deathwing the Destoryer

Puny mortals! I have had many names throughout history, all of them spoken with dread: Neltharion, Xaxas, and many more. Yet you shall know me best as Deathwing, for so I am! I am the bane of all life, the darkness within history, the lord of death, the master of destruction. And I tell you now, and so it is true, that this world is mine!

Pain... agony... my hatred burns through the cavernous deeps... The world heaves with my torment! Its wretched kingdoms quake beneath my rage! But at last, the whole of Azeroth will break. And all will burn beneath the shadow of my wings!

Black Dragon Aspect of the Earth. Neltharion was tempted by the whispers of the Old Gods as he slept beneath the surface of Azeroth. He tricked the other Aspects into donating their powers to create the Dragon Soul, which was really intended to place them all under his control. The resulting wars devastated the Dragonflights. It was not until the Demon Soul (as it was later called) was destroyed that he was finally defeated. Now known as Deathwing the Destroyer, his shattered body rested in Deepholm for years until he reemerged, changing the face of Azeroth forever.

Notable offspring of Neltharion include: Nefarian, master of Blackwing Lair, who launched a plan to steal blood from the Dragonflights to create a race of hybrid draconic warriors; Onyxia, Nefarian's sister, who attempted to corrupt the King of Stormwind; Sabellian, Deathwing's younger son and lieutenant who remained in Outland after the Dark Portal closed; and Sartharion, guardian of the Obsidian Sanctum in Northrend.

Deathwing: I am Deathwing. The Destroyer. The end of all things. Inevitable. Indomitable. I. AM. THE CATACLYSM.

  • Mighty Glacier: While by far the most powerful hero in Warcraft II, Deathwing like all dragon units at the time, reacted slowly to commands.
  • Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Most black dragons have in various forms.
    • Quite literally now. Deathwing will sometimes show up in various zones, nuke everything beneath him, then leave. There's even and achievement for it call "Stood in the Fire".
      • This nuking is so powerful that it instantly kills anyone in range. You won't even see damage being applied to you, the game will simply announce that you're dead.
  • Obviously Evil: His design doesn't exactly scream "good guy".
  • Oh Crap: His eyes are wide open the moment he realizes that Thrall has the Dragon Soul, and he's going to use its unfathomable power against him.
  • Omnicidal Maniac: He wants to kill all life except for his own dragon flight.
  • One-Winged Angel: In the Madness of Deathwing Encounter, after losing his armor, he rises out of the Maelstrom and attacks players with tentacles from where his limbs used to be.

"You have done NOTHING. I will TEAR THIS WORLD APART!

  • Power Limiter: He has gigantic metal plates welded onto his body in order to prevent himself from being blown up by his own power. The first half of his boss fight involves having to break off the plates.
    • To the point where he explosively hemorrhages during the Madness encounter.
  • Rage Against the Heavens: When he and Thrall meet in Charge of the Aspects, he reveals that he serves the Old Gods because he hates the task the titans charged him with, and the old Gods promised to free him from his burden.
  • Sanity Slippage
  • Sequential Boss: Three phases, split between two encounters.
  • That Man Is Dead: Although christened Deathwing by the world, he rarely, if at all, actually responds directly to or uses name for the longest time. He finally calls himself "Deathwing the Destroyer" during the Madness of Deathwing encounter, signaling he's too far gone to redeem.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Deathwing was driven insane by the Old Gods as part of their plan to dismantle the Dragonflights. Due to his insanity, YMMV on how "unwitting" he is.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Literally. During the last phase of the final battle, his draconic form breaks down and he becomes a molten, shapeless entity of pure fire, rage and insanity.
  • With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Courtesy of the Old Gods.
  • Would You Like to Hear How They Died?: Shortly before the Ultraxion encounter in Dragon Soul, he flies in and taunts Alexstraza about how he turned many of her brood into mindless twilight drakes, and how painful a process it was. She, with forced stoicism, says that they are no longer of her clutch, and allows the raid to kill them.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Ysera has a vision of Deathwing dying alongside the rest of the Dragon Aspects at the hands of the Twilight Dragonflight, implying that his Old God master will discard him once his usefulness has come to an end. More specifically, the Old Gods cannot rule Azeroth until all the Aspects are dead. They proceed to run him through with the Dragon Shrine.

Nefarian

Eldest son of Deathwing, Nefarian is a powerful black dragon who leads the black dragonflight on Azeroth. In his human guise, he is known as Lord Victor Nefarius, Lord of Blackrock. Holding the Blackrock clan and various clans of ogres under his dominion, Nefarian rules from his lair at the top of Blackrock Spire.

  • Deadpan Snarker: Already showed hints of this in the original game, comes into his own in Cataclysm.
  • Dual Boss: With Onyxia in Blackwing Descent.
  • Evil Overlord: Like father like son.
  • Evil Versus Evil: Nefarian and his forces were constantly butting heads with Ragnaros the Firelord and his forces in Blackrock Mountain.
  • Flaw Exploitation: He does this in his encounter, using abilities specifically tailored for certain classes, such as inflicting Shapeshifter Mode Lock on shapeshifting Druids.
  • Genre Savvy: "Foolsss... Kill the one in the dress!"
    • In a rather interesting twist, presumably knowing that players typically have to attack dragons from the side, has Onyxia shoot electricity from her sides every time she breathes.
  • Have a Nice Death: "Worthless wretch! Your friends will join you soon enough!"
  • Large Ham: He is voiced by Chris Metzen by the way.
  • Mad Scientist: Nefarian seems to be a big believer in the power of science, using gene-splicing to create hybrid monsters like Chromaggus, Chimaeron and the chromatic dragonflight. And in Blackwing Descent, Onyxia appears to have been resurrected Frankenstein-style rather than strictly through necromancy.
  • Manipulative Bastard: He falls short of becoming like his father. He said "THIS CANNOT BE!" twice to begin with.
  • Necromancer: Has shown the ability to raise his fallen minions as skeletons. He later does the same with Onyxia in Blackwing Descent.
  • Not Quite Dead: Sure you already chopped off his head, but he is back in Cataclysm regardless, undead or otherwise.
  • Palette Swap: Fahrad's true dragon form uses Nefarian's old Blackwing Lair model.
  • Shock and Awe: Employs this in Cataclysm, severely damaging the raid every time his health passes a 10% milestone, and also uses Onyxia to electrocute the raid from her sides, eventually exploding if the players take too long to kill her and/or do too much damage to Nefarian in Phase 1.
  • Shout-Out/Ascended Meme: "Death Knights, GET OVER HERE!" added when Death Knights are available.
  • Villainous Breakdown: So many many times, "Inconceivable!" "THIS CANNOT BE!! Rend, deal with these insects!", "Impossible!" and of course "This cannot be! I am the Master here! You mortals are nothing to my kind! DO YOU HEAR? NOTHING!". He seemed to mellow out a little when you beat him in Blackwing Descent. "Defeat has never tasted so bitter..."

Onyxia

Daughter of Deathwing, she posed as Lady Katrana Prestor to keep Highlord Bolvar Fordragon and ultimately the human nation of Stormwind under her control. She even tried to duplicate King Varian to make one of his physical splits a personal puppet.

  • Animate Dead: Reanimated by Nefarian in Blackwing Descent in a Frankenstein-like fashion, she has stitches, exposed bone, and various tubes and electrodes implanted in her; he even uses a jolt of electricity to revive her.
  • Dual Boss: With Nefarian in Blackwing Descent.
  • Evil Chancellor: She served as a toxic advisor to Anduin and mind controlled Bolvar to keep him subservient, a lot of problems that the humans suffered from can be tracked back to her intentially running the kingdom into the ground and creating problems so her brother's false horde could eventually walk right over the city in her father's name.
  • Hannibal Lecture: What she tried to do to Anduin when she kidnapped him.
  • I Have Your Wife
  • Manipulative Bastard
  • One-Winged Angel: She does this facing down Lo'Gosh and Varian.
  • Sequential Boss: 3 phases!
  • The Vamp: Especially towards Highlord Bolvar Fordragon and King Varian Wrynn.

Sabellian

Deathwing's son, and a quest giver. Despite being a black dragon, he's actually a fairly decent guy: he doesn't possess his father's hatred of all mortals, and in fact actually forms genuine friendships with them. Despite this, he is still kind of evil, though only openly hostile to Gruul and the other Gronn.

  • Affably Evil: Sabellian worked for Deathwing and helped him in his plans to conquer other worlds. Yet he maintains a genuine polite demeanor
  • Axe Crazy
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Never mentioned after The Burning Crusade, not even in Cataclysm where the Black Dragonflight was the big bad. He's not even mentioned during the legendary dagger questline, where Wrathion has the player hunt down surviving black dragons and assassinate them. This has led to Epileptic Trees amongst players.
  • Friendly Enemy
  • Papa Wolf: Wants revenge against Gruul for all the black dragons he and his fellow Gronn killed.
  • Token Good Teammate: One of the few black dragons who isn't pure evil.


Sintharia

Deathwing’s prime consort, and the mother of Nefarian and Onyxia. She prefers to be known by Sinestra, as she despises Deathwing and her children. She created the Twilight Dragonflight, and while she was thought to have been killed when Dargonax was destroyed, she returned to life and provides Deathwing with eggs to make into twilight dragons.

  • Back from the Dead
  • Beam-O-War: With Caelen.
  • Bonus Boss: After defeating all the bosses in Heroic Bastion of Twilight.
  • Flunky Boss: In Phase 2.
  • Large Ham
  • Pivotal Boss: Has the same animation set as Kil’Jaeden and is set in a pool of lava.
  • Scars Are Forever: Has scars from Deathwing mating with her.
  • Unwitting Pawn: She thought she was rebelling against Deathwing, but she was actually doing his bidding.
  • Worf Had the Flu: Begins the battle weakened from her past battles, and thus having less health and attack power, but in Phase 3, is no longer constrained this way, a case in which a boss Turns Red by having a handicap removed.

Wrathion

The black dragon that was born from the egg that Rheastrasza purified and died to protect, he is free of the Old Gods' corruption, but does not trust the Red Dragonflight, seeing them as trying to control him, and thus takes charge of the Ravenholdt rogues. He is heavily involved in the quest for the legendary Rogue item Fangs of the Father, which has adventurers hunt down the remaining black dragons, including Deathwing himself.

  • Creepy Child: He's conniving, cunning, orchestrates the fall of the corrupt Black Dragonflight, and disguises himself as a goateed human male. And he's only a baby dragon...
  • Glowing Eyes
  • Hypocrite: See that note in Jerk with a Heart of Gold below about Mook killing? Yeah, you're heavily encouraged, to the point its nigh impossible to complete, to kill mooks en masse in the quest that you completed right before Wrathion stated he didn't want any mooks dead.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Wrathion is very willing to break a person's legs to get a point across, but when sending out players to hunt down the last Black Dragons, he doesn't want their minions killed as they are being manipulated.
  • Last of His Kind: Essentially becomes this for the black dragonflight at the end of the quest chain.
  • Not So Different: In his questline, the daggers he empowers become more and more corrupt as HE empowers them; sure, you got the ingredients for him from some pretty nasty things, but HE wanted them and somehow knew the magic to make them.
  • Only Sane Man: His role in Mists Of Pandaria, where he shares a drink with the rogue who posseses the fangs and discusses the future of the world. He realizes before anyone else that having the factions fighting each other will make them weaker for when the next threat rises, from his vague words, it seems like he's going to manipulate both factions until they're on the same side again.
  • Sins of Our Fathers: Makes it very clear he is his own dragon, and will not be held accountable for what Deathwing did. He explicitly refers to the "sins of my father".
  • Suicide Mission: The battle against Deathwing is thought to be this. Whether it is depends on the rogue and the group.
  • Token Good Teammate: To a degree: he's largely self-centered and a bit cruel at times, but he isn't corrupted by the Old Gods.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Fahrad was trying to control him, but Wrathion sees through him and realizes that he's the only other black dragon alive.
  • Wise Beyond Their Years: Dragons are conscious even in the egg, so Wrathion was hatching his own plans once he hatched.
    • Which leads to a LOT of Fridge Logic as he claims Sins of Our Fathers to not apply to him because of what he heard about the Red Dragons planning to use him in their plans, which makes the Red Dragons morons for planning right in front of him, and no, there is no indication this is somehow unique to him which makes this even worse.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Fahrad suggests he do this to the player, but he decides against it.

Red

Alexstrasza the Lifebinder

Red Dragon Aspect of Life. Alexstrasza has been the leader of the resistance to Azeroth's corruption throughout her existence. Her Dragonflight was held in thrall to the Horde by their possession of the Dragon Soul, but once the artifact was destroyed, she aided in the destruction of Neltharion/Deathwing. She has remained friendly to mortals ever since, and has come to lead the Wyrmrest Accord in Northrend in opposition to the onslaught of Malygos.

Notable offspring include: Vaelaestrasz, who fought against and was ultimately corrupted by Nefarian in Blackwing Lair, and Caelestrasz, who, until recently, was held prisoner by the Old God C'thun in Ahn'qiraj since the War of the Shifting Sands and later sacrificed himself during the battle against Sinestra in the Bastion of Twilight.

  • Beware the Nice Ones: She is sure the nicest of the five dragon aspects, but also the second strongest one. Woe to anyone who tries pushing her too far, just as Nekros Skullcrusher and Malygos learned... the hard way.
  • Big Good: The primary leader of resistance against Deathwing and his minions during Cataclysm.
  • Brought Down to Normal: All of the Aspects lose their powers after Deathwing's death and having prevented the Hour of Twilight.
  • Characterization Marches On: Warcraft II had her offspring as green and without much in the way of intellect. The Horde's Dragons didn't become Red until Warcraft: Day of the Dragon.
  • Friend to All Living Things: Even back when she was a proto-dragon, in Dawn of the Aspects, Malygos notes that she seems to regret hunting living prey. She was even willing to pardon the orcs as a whole for their treatment of her flight during the Second War, loving them just as much as she loves everything else. Except for Nekros. She ate him.
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom: Flaming even.
  • Heartbroken Badass: After her BSOD, she pulls herself together and helps the other Aspets and Thrall defeat Chromatus, after she learns that Koiralstrasz's sacrifice prevented a catastrophe.
  • Heroic Blue Screen of Death: During Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects
  • Hot Mom: Her elven form.
  • I Did What I Had to Do: After she deals the fatal blow to Malygos, she tells him "I did what I had to, brother."
  • Mama Bear: Or rather, a big momma dragon: "Nekrossss... you had them ssslay my children! MY CHILDREN!!"
  • Ms. Fanservice: In her humanoid (elven) form. See Stripperiffic below.
  • Petting Zoo People: In elven form, she still has her horns and the same coloured eyes as her dragon form.
  • Stripperiffic
  • Tenchi Solution: Not at the moment, but she did have several husband-equivalents at once in the past.
  • Zettai Ryouiki

Korialstrasz

Alexstrasza's prime consort. Known as Krasus in his mortal disguise (which switches between a high elf or a muscular human depending on what he's appearing in), Korialstrasz is Alexstrasza's prime mate. As Krasus, he was a member of the ruling council of Dalaran, but it's unclear if that's still the case during World of Warcraft.

Also probably one of Richard Knaak's few characters that was, for the most part, positively received.

  • Brainwashed and Crazy: In The Sunwell Trilogy.
  • The Chessmaster: In Day of the Dragon. He gets better about it though.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: During Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects. Unfortunately, most of the dragons, even Alexstrasza to an extent, think he betrayed them, not knowing that the eggs he destroyed were corrupted.
  • Heterosexual Life Partners: With Rhonin as of the War of the Ancients trilogy.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Has resorted to using somewhat.... questionable methods in the past that sometimes resulted in the people he manipulated dying. Despite having somewhat of an "ends justify the means" philosophy, he's not terriby happy about some of the things he's done, and when Rhonin essentially calls him a bad guy in Day of the Dragon, he admits that Rhonin isn't entirely wrong.
  • The Obi-Wan: To Malfurion, again in War of the Ancients.
  • Only One Me Allowed Right Now: In War of the Ancients.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Receives one from Kalec for constantly butting in, and for giving Anveena the illusion of life despite knowing exactly how things would end (considering that Kalec got his heart broken in the process, this isn't that hard to believe).


Blue

Malygos the Spellweaver

Blue Dragon Aspect of Magic. Malygos was driven insane and his brood nearly wiped out after the disaster of the Dragon Soul. Many years later, he emerged from hiding only to become disillusioned by the rampant use of magic among the inhabitants of Azeroth, and embarked on a plan to gather all of its energies to himself in order to destroy the planet. Alexstrasza led the fight against him in his sanctum in the Eye of Eternity, where he was killed. Despite Malygos' insanity, many members of the Blue Dragonflight have assisted mortals throughout Azeroth's history.

Notable offspring of Malygos include: Arygos, who until recently was held prisoner by the Old God C'thun in Ahn'qiraj since the War of the Shifting Sands and may have had his mind corrupted by C'thun as well; Azuregos, whose spirit can be found wandering the hills of Azshara; and Kalecgos, who led the battle against Kil'jaeden at the Sunwell and has become the new Aspect after Malygos's death.

  • Alas, Poor Villain: Invoked. Alexstraza knows she had no choice but to stop him, but mourns his death.
  • An Ice Person: Oddly, Malygos himself uses Arcane magic, but his Dragonflight in general uses mostly Frost.
  • Badass Boast: His introduction speech in World of Warcraft.
  • Canon Immigrant: Originated in Warcraft: Day of the Dragon along with the blue Dragonflight.
  • The Chew Toy: At least in earlier Warcraft series. He snaps in Wrath of the Lich King though...
  • Difficulty Spike: Compared to Naxxramas and Obsidian Sanctum, the Malygos encounter is much much harder, requiring great coordination and good gear to beat his short enrage timer.
  • A God Am I: He already is a demigod, but he goes into the full blown version of this trope later.

"I AM THE SPELL WEAVER! My power is INFINITE!"

"Lesser beings, intruding here! A shame that your excess courage does not compensate for your stupidity!"

"None but the blue dragonflight are welcome here! Perhaps this is the work of Alexstrasza? Well then, she has sent you to your deaths."

"What could you hope to accomplish, to storm brazenly into my domain? To employ MAGIC? Against ME? FWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"I am without limits here... the rules of your cherished reality do not apply... In this realm, I am in control..."

"I give you one chance. Pledge fealty to me, and perhaps I won't slaughter you for your insolence!"

  • Have a Nice Death: He will taunt you endlessly every time he hands players their asses, A LOT MORE than most other bosses do. Each phase has multiple lines that he uses for killing a player, and he has nine total.
  • Heroic BSOD: After seeing his whole kind annihilated before his eyes. Lasted ten thousand years.
  • Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Oh yes.
  • Knight Templar: About magic.
  • Large Ham: Another one voiced by Cam Clarke, some may find him sounds like a blood elf. Of course he say many lines with added emphasis.
  • Last of His Kind: Or what appeared to be for a long time because of Deathwing.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In the Cataclysm storyline, it seems that Malygos' attempts to control all magic in Azeroth have been weakening the Council of Tirisfal to the point where they are forced to recruit Priests, Paladins and Shamans into their number. This just as Deathwing decides to make his big comeback.
  • Sequential Boss: A three-phase fight: one against him on the ground, another against some of his minions, and a third against him while mounted on red drakes.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: At least at first. Then his ambitions became increasingly insane.

Kalecgos

One of the few surviving blue dragons, Kalecgos is a servant of the great Aspect Malygos. He disguises himself as a half-elf, calling himself Kalec. Due to the blues being most in tune with magic of all the aspects, Kalec has the powers of a sorcerer and the strength of a warrior. In Cataclysm, after Malygos' death, he becomes Aspect of Magic.

Azuregos

One of the oldest living blue dragons, he was tasked with guarding part of the Scepter of the Shifting Sands, but grew bored and tired of the constant attacks on him.

"I know. I KNOW. We could never be, right? Dragon and Spirit Healer... two different worlds! Not to mention the physiological problems."

Sindragosa

The former consort of Malygos, she was flung to Northrend after Neltharion's genocide of the blue dragons, and died of her wounds and exhaustion trying to get to the Dragonblight to die in peace. After years had passed, the Lich King resurrected her as the guardian of Icecrown Citadel, her final thoughts of hatred towards the world turning into uncontrollable rage.

  • An Ice Person: Freezing breath, the ability to freeze people solid, and even an aura of cold that persistently damages the raid.
  • Dracolich: Just like many of the frost wyrms under the Lich King's control.
  • Dying as Yourself: Her last words are "Free... at last...".
  • Harmless Freezing: Averted. Being frozen in her Ice Tombs does no damage at first, but victims who are not broken out quickly take damage and suffocate.
  • Large Ham: Like Malygos, she's no slouch in this department. Her emphasis on "betrays" in "SUFFER, MORTALS, AS YOUR PATHETIC MAGIC BETRAAAAAAYS YOU!" is legendary.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: As she was dying in Northrend, her sanity began to deteriorate, and she slowly began blaming the Burning Leigon, Deathwing, mortal beings and even Malygos for her suffering. When she was reanimated, her final whispers of vengence were one of the most upfront things in her mind.
  • Undeath Always Ends: She sighs with relief upon it happening as well.


Green

Ysera the Dreamer/the Awakened

Green Dragon Aspect of Dreams. Ysera is the guardian of the Emerald Dream, a coexistent dimension to Azeroth where all things remain in their pristine, untouched state, and where the Druids are required to slumber for many centuries at a time in exchange for their powers. All beings touch on the Dream in their sleep. Recently, the Dream has been invaded by a being known only as the Nightmare, possibly an Old God, which has corrupted many members of the Green Dragonflight and seems to be holding Ysera captive. In Cataclysm, she's finally freed and leaves the emerald dream, becoming Ysera the Awakened. She guides the player on Mount Hyjal to push back Ragnaros' forces and free/revive several guardians including Cenarius.

Her current consort is Eranikus. Notable offpsring of Ysera include: Ysondre, Lethon, Emeriss and Taerar, guardians of the four portals into the Emerald Dream, and Meritha, who until recently was a prisoner of the Old God C'thun since the War of the Shifting Sands.


Bronze

Nozdormu the Timeless One

Bronze Dragon Aspect of Time. Nozdormu is charged with maintaining the proper flow of Azeroth's history. His Dragonflight was also the chief opponent of the Old God C'thun and its invasion of Silithus. Recently, the Timeways have been invaded by a hostile force known as the Infinite Dragonflight that seeks to alter key moments of Azeroth's history. Worse, Nozdormu has gone missing, forcing his Brood to recruit mortals to help stop the Infinite Dragonflight's mischief. It has been recently confirmed that an alternate future version of him is the leader of the Infinite Dragonflight, created through Old God corruption.

Notable offspring of Nozdormu include: Anachronos, who led the struggle against C'thun and the Silithids.

Anachronos

The heir of Nozdormu and future leader of the Bronze Flight. 1,000 years before World of Warcraft, he lead the defense of Kalimdor against the forces of the Qiraji in the War of the Shifting Sands and guided adventurers during the opening of Ahn'Qiraj. Today, he resides in the Caverns of Time.

  • Bug War: Lead the defense against the insectiod Qiraji.
  • Hold the Line: He and other dragons helped hold the Qiraji back until the druids could erect a barrier.
  • It Is Not Your Time: Would say this to attacking players who managed to get him down to a certain level before despawning.
  • MacGuffin: Entrusted the pieces of the Scepter of the Shifting Sands to a member of each dragonflight after it was broken. 1000 years later, he sends heroes to seek them out and reassemble the scepter.
  • Meaningful Name: His name is a reference to something that is not in its proper time. Since he's part of the Bronze Flight, there's no telling if when his proper time actually is, if he has one.
  • My New Gift Is Lame: The reaction he got from Fandral Staghelm when Anachronos presented the Scepter of the Shifting Sands, saying that he no longer cares what happens now that his son is dead.
  • Put on a Bus: Hasn't done much since Ahn'Qiraj was opened, but plays a role as a questgiver in the Dragonwrath questline.
  • Summoning Artifact: Created the Scepter of the Shifting Sands to bring down the barrier when it was time to deal with the Qiraji once and for all.
  • This Means War: Initially refused to get involved in the War of the Shifting Sands until the Qiraji attacked the Caverns of Time.
  • Warrior Prince
  • You Are in Command Now: As Nozdormu's heir, he will eventually take command of the Bronze Flight and become the Aspect of Time when Nozdormr meets his inevitable demise.

Chromie a.k.a. Chronormu

A member of the Bronze flight, Chromie seems to be charged with maintaining the timelines in Nozdormu's absence. She gives players a number of tasks that deal with preventing the disruption of the current timeline.

Her preferred guise is of a female gnome.
