I love the guy to death, but Blizz really didn’t put too much thought into him. I think that really hit me at the Blizzcon when they had his VA come up and describe his work for a bit. When he asked what he liked best about Rokhan he replied “He’s badass.” When pressed again, he again replied “Badass”.
Now obviously, I don’t speak for the man but that answer made me tilt my head. After all of the other VA’s went into small spiels about what made them connect with their characters (Bless Patty) just stating that he’s kind of a badass just seemed to fall flat. Then it hit me that Rokhan really didn’t get that much in BFA. More than he ever had in previous expansions sure, but he was just kinda along for the ride outside of Nazmir and even there we didn’t see him actually do much. Rokhan was a footnote in BFA. Hardly worth mentioning. I don’t think it’s an understatement to say he might be the most underdeveloped faction leader outside of the Pandaren reps.
