World of Warcraft has burned through all its villains? Not so! We show you who might soon appear as a new enemy.
Over the years, Blizzard has laid many villains in World of Warcraft to rest.
Sure, some of the enemies turned out not to be so dead and not quite as evil as thought (Illidan) and some simply reappear because they are reborn – like all the demons of the Burning Legion.
But which actual adversaries are there in World of Warcraft that are not definitively eliminated? We list the potential dangers that still lurk in Azeroth, the shattered world, or the known cosmos of Warcraft. On Reddit, the user Lionhearts has made the effort to compile some of these enemies. We have highlighted the most important ones and translated the information about them.
- Demon of the Legion (on this page)
- The Great Leaders
- The Old Gods
- Possible Traitors
- Just a Setback?
Please note that this list does not claim to be exhaustive. There are certainly many more potential adversaries.
Demon of the Legion
Some demons of the Burning Legion are not as interchangeable as others. Many have a story that goes back far, and many of them were already encountered in Warcraft 3.
Mal’Ganis
Mal’Ganis is a dreadlord and was supposed to watch over the Lich King in the name of the Legion when he was still serving the Legion. He led Arthas to wander to Northrend and thus ensured that Arthas ultimately became the Lich King.
Last seen: Mal’Ganis was summoned by Gul’dan to the Broken Shore (Legion opening event).
Where he might appear: As a dreadlord, he can theoretically be anywhere, as they like to disguise themselves as high-ranking individuals of a people to infiltrate it. He might appear on Argus in patch 7.3.
Varimathras
Varimathras was a dreadlord who worked for the Burning Legion but ultimately betrayed his brothers and served Lady Sylvanas. However, even the Dark Lady was betrayed by him, and he convinced High Apothecary Putress to use the new plague against everyone – against the Horde, Alliance, and Scourge alike.
Last seen: Varimathras was tortured in Antorus for his failure. Like all demons, he should still be capable of being resurrected, as his death occurred before Argus perished.
Where he might appear: Like all dreadlords in a high position among the various peoples.
On the next page, we deal with “Great Leaders” who could quickly become enemies.
