World of Warcraft – Of good and evil dragons

This is what it’s about: In World of Warcraft, it’s not just about orcs and humans. The world of Azeroth has long been home to powerful dragons and their brood, the so-called “Dragonflights”. These ancient and powerful beings play an essential role in the story of the Warcraft world.

What role do dragons play in World of Warcraft?

Dragons in World of Warcraft are not just large scaled beasts that fly and breathe fire. Rather, the dragons of Azeroth descend from the five great “Dragon Aspects”. These primordial dragons were once chosen by the mighty Titans and made guardians of the world.

Each dragon was given its own god-like powers to carry out its task. The five aspects are:

• The bronze dragon Nozdormu, the guardian of time.
• The red dragon Alexstrasza, who loved all living beings as the Life Binder. Fun Fact: You can play Alexstrasza in Heroes of the Storm
  
• The green dragon Ysera, the guardian of dreams and especially of the mystical “Emerald Dream”.
• Malygos, a cheerful blue dragon, who was chosen as the guardian of magic.
• The black dragon Neltharion, the guardian of the depths of the earth.

The story of the fall of the dragons

This is what happened: After the Titans disappeared, the dragons, according to their roles, took care of Azeroth. However, in the depths of the world, Neltharion came into contact with horrific old gods and gradually lost his mind. At some point, he succumbed to madness and believed the whisperings.

This was the War of the Ancients: Neltharion’s madness became the downfall of the dragons when he created an artifact called the “Dragon Soul” (the great first battle against the demons) during the
