Iridikron's Bargain with the Rebellious Titanforged

I believe it would serve as a far more interesting narrative if he had them join alongside him for the purpose of freedom and reflect that’s his ultimate goal from liberating Azeroth of the titans, to secure the truest freedom; not just for the elemental spirits and dragonkind but all of Azeroth & those who have greater intelligence & free wills.

Iridikron hates anything and anyone Titan-related; if Titanforged are a race, Iridikron is racist against them. Titanforged rejecting the Titans wouldn’t be enough for him. He wants anything or anyone Titan gone.

@Ausspiritual-dathremar

That’s why I’ve drawn the dynamic between Iridikron and Illidan in the past and believe he too would serve as a fantastic anti-hero for the story. Both of them willing to go through extreme measures and forge dire or questionable pacts, along with presenting controversial morals in order to fulfill their great ambitions and accomplish their grand goals.

You’re assuming their goals are beneficial for others. Illidan’s weren’t until those retcons in Legion whitewashed him. Now, it’s up in the air. Iridikron’s goals are not beneficial for the world if you’re Titanforged. So ordered dragons, the Wild Gods, Vry’kul, humans, dwarfs, gnomes (maybe elves too given they’re trolls altered by arcane)… all on his hitlist.

Yeah, but if the titanforged are rebelling against the titans themselves — Having him make a compromise & open to some morally grey decisions for his perspective of ‘the greater good’ would make for a better narrative & story than a simple: “Hurdur dey all bad, I bonk at thee on the heads! GRR!”

Yeah that’s true. Albeit as far as retcons go – I feel Legion whitewashed him pretty well

However, Iridikron’s story hasn’t been finished yet; so there’s still room for development, evolution and plot twists ahoy

The Automa have Meat.

They were stuffing the Souls of the Eternal Ones into Zereth Mortis’s Eggs which are reprogrammable.

No doubt the Titans learned of how the First Ones experimented on Zereth Ordos’s Eggs to create Meat Robots and got similar ideas with Elementals!

i forgot this guy exists i think blizz wrote him out because there was too many dragons in the plot. I got him confused with fyrakk from the start
