Lore question regarding Dark Iron succession

Back during vanilla wow era, if Dagran Thaurissan and Moira (and her baby) all died, and Dark Irons not loyal to Ragnaros took over, who might they be lead by?

Are there any Dark Irons characters in the lore who are already established in leadership (or opposition as the case may be) roles who are not pro-Ragnaros?

I think the Thorium Brotherhood would be the friendly race had Moria died before the events of Cata.

Of course, get any dwarf drunk enough and they’ll be your bestie so long as the ale flows.

He’s a new character, but Anvil-Thane Thurgaden seems to run the show in Shadowforge, while Moira’s away. As well as “thane” in general being a title used for high-ranking or ruling Dwarves.

Thanks for the suggestion. Makes sense, but the wowpedia page on him is a stub so not much info found just yet.

Thank you, that’s right on the money. I knew there were dark irons who were anti-Ragnaros and pro-Dark Iron freedom from Elemental Lord dictatorship.

However, while having the correct pov I was searching for, I wonder if there are others of a more leadership type rather than what is essentially just a blacksmith guild. (Not that blacksmiths can’t be capable of many other things, but still.)
