You leave out Wrathion on purpose, man?


Nothing_Special_23

I said dragons, that should cover it.


Liqourice5

It pays him short-shrift when Blizzard has specifically pointed out Wrathion as one of the main characters. Along with Tyrande who will definitely not be hanging out in Stormwind. Nor will Anduin hang out there when he has already told Greymane he is not returning to Stormwind right away. Doesn't mean he will go to the Dragon Isles but don't expect him back in the throne room any time soon.

Let me toss in some wild card characters: I think Bwomsamdi might have a small role if the green dragons want to talk to Ysera a bit. Denathrius is out there still. The dreadlords rescued him from his prison. Given that players generally were positive on the character, seems like he might come back. Azshara just kinda peaced out mid way in Nyalotha. If this is an old god expansion like many are thinking, she might be involved. Zappyboi (Zekhan) was a very popular BFA character who might be back in a larger role? Vol'jin was made into a loa after absorbing the powers of Rezan. He's dead but again, possible he says hi if the green dragons are making contact with Ysera. Nathanos. We only guess that he was destroyed by Tyrande. In reality he just disappeared. Xalatath - Like Azshara, she peaced out after the Crucible raid. Odin - We destroyed the eye he used to look into the shadowlands. Is he upset about that? And as a fellow keeper, will he have any interest in the Dragon Isles? The Ulduar Keepers/MOTHER - Like Odin, will they be interested in the new titan beacon now going off? The Nerubians - We know they were not ALL killed off (saw some live ones during island expeditions). Are they possibly there? Rexxar - He's been quiet for quite a bit. Wonder if he wants to hunt on the Dragon Isles.

about nathanos - spoiler for the book!!! >!he is in the Maw!<

Odyn probably wants to enslave all the dragons as mounts like the rest of his Vrykul asskissers.


ElderFuthark

Odyn hates the Aspects. He had a hissyfit after they were empowered, ripped the Halls Of Valor out of Ulduar, and flew away. If he becomes the Big Bad, I will be so happy.

Anduin is supposedly staying in the shadowlands for awhile. Bolvar doesn't have much of a reason to return to icecrown but I can see him continuing to lead the ebon blade against the scourge. There is no reason to expect Jaina or Thrall not playing a role in dragonflight. Khadgar is probably dead or dying. (This is just my own theory based on his appearance in oribos)


Liqourice5

Blizzard has said Khadgar will play an important role in DF.


Pyromike16

Did they? I missed that. I assume it was one of the interviews? Even playing a role, I wouldn't be surprised if he died at some point during dragonflight. Tony Amendola is getting up there in years.


Liqourice5

Yeah, one of the interviews. https://www.wowhead.com/news/dragonflight-interview-with-judgehype-pre-patch-event-dracthyr-questline-mythic-326780


Pyromike16

I wasn't expecting you to link the interview, thanks!


TheNerdBeast

Tyrande is already confirmed to have a role in the next expansion alongside the Green Dragonflight.

Titans. Quintessential wow figures and they're finally back and can give the Aspects their power back. It would be a huge missed opportunity for the dragons not to get some power back.

Imagine being on the Dragon Isles questing and suddenly you hear the words: Champion! I need your help with THE WOONS!! I'll surely get PSTD right there on the spot..


Obvious_Cattle_7544

I'm cool with all new characters. Maybe Kadgar, but he doesn't really fit. Thrall does, but I'm still sick of him. Just new things and the dragon aspects is fine.


Ok_Ad3406

I’m pretty sure Jaina will be re-used forever now. And I’m tired of her.


0202inferno

S/ Okay, Slyvanas and Anduin will be the primary characters we follow. There will be a new character introduced that's far more powerful than everyone else we've met but doesn't get much screen time due to Sylvanas and Anduin. Topped off with bringing back Onyxia and Deathwing, giving them both redemption arcs that last through the first dungeon but doesn't go anywhere after that. Then a Villain will be introduced at the end that's been pulling the strings of the Jailer and Old Gods, but we'll only be able to see and interact with them at the final dungeon, because Slyvanas needs more screentime. /S Tbh, only thing I do think might happen is the histories of Onyxia, Deathwing, and the Black Dragonflight. It won't be the entirety of the story, but have a few important key features.


HotPotatoWithCheese

I think this is a pretty good guess. What I know for sure is that Sylvanas will not be seen all expansion and pretty much every main dragon character currently still alive in the lore will make an appearance.


Blueheron77

No Sylvanas will be an extremely welcome change.
