Though the orcs were convinced and began leaving Grim Batol, Deathwing's attack on the caravan, however, failed. Nekros tried to use the Demon Soul on Deathwing but was unsuccessful due to the disk having no power over the black dragon.
He then sent Tyranastrasz , old and sick, to stop the Deathwing, but he failed and was killed. At the behest of Krasus, the three remaining free aspects, Malygos , Ysera and Nozdormu , grudgingly decided to come out of their lairs and attack Deathwing. However, due to the power they had given to the Demon Soul, they were no match for the black leviathan. Furthermore, he discovered its weakness and destroyed it, releasing all the powers of the dragons who had given their power ten thousand years earlier.
Deathwing was sent retreating with four very angry, fully-empowered Dragon Aspects on his heels, though he managed to elude them in the end. Shortly after the battle of Grim Batol, Lord Daval Prestor vanished under unusual circumstances when Deathwing was forced to go into hiding, with his chateau abandoned and his servants gone. Deathwing's influence over the nobles disappeared along with him.
Onyxia and Nefarian , offspring of Deathwing and masters of the black dragonflight in the absence of their father, have tried to control the world. Onyxia followed in her father's footsteps by taking the Prestor name to attempt to manipulate the Alliance.
She posed as a human counselor named Katrana Prestor for the new child King of Stormwind. He was able to enslave the Blackrock Clan orcs who served him on the top of the mountain, the Blackrock Spire. This section concerns content related to The Burning Crusade.
In a brief dialogue with Overlord Mor'ghor , Lady Sinestra Sintharia revealed that Deathwing survived the events of the Battle of Grim Batol, and seeks the Netherwing eggs to continue Nefarian's experiments. Deathwing's consort Sintharia serves as the primary antagonist of Night of the Dragon , carrying on Deathwing's experiments of creating twilight dragons. Deathwing himself does not appear until the end of the novel, where it is revealed he is using the research of his children and consort to perfect the creation of the Twilight dragonflight.
Some time after Sinestra's death, Deathwing retrieved her corpse and used the power of N'Zoth to reanimate her for the sole purpose of creating more eggs to turn into twilight dragons. Deathwing first made his debut in World of Warcraft as a cameo appearance during the battle against the Old God Yogg-Saron , inside Ulduar. He appears in human form and under his original name of Neltharion and is featured along with all the other Aspects in a flashback that depicts the creation of the Dragon Soul , ten thousand years earlier.
Cataclysm marked the return of Deathwing and his wrath constituted a world-changing event known as the Shattering. He plays a part in a number of quests as well as the achievement [ Stood in the Fire ] and is also the final boss encounter of the expansion. He is the last of the Dragon Aspects to appear in dragon form in the game, and is the third one that can be confronted by raids or dungeons the first being Malygos and second Nozdormu in the corrupted form of Murozond.
Deathwing rising from the Maelstrom. Deathwing unleashing destruction on Azeroth after bursting forth from the Elemental Plane. After the battle at Grim Batol, Deathwing returned to Deepholm , the realm of the earth elementals , to recuperate. When he arrived, the native stone dragons flocked to his side, easily swayed by the Old God -amplified power of the Aspect of Earth. Hidden away inside the Stonecore in the Temple of Earth , Deathwing waited, recovering from the wounds of his last battle against the forces of Azeroth.
As he bided his time until he could reforge the world in molten fire, the Twilight's Hammer toiled over him, forging a new armor of elementium plates that were then hammered to the Dragon Aspect's skin to hold his tormented body together. In recent years, the whisperings of the Old Gods had gotten worse; the Old Ones' dread power steadily increased as C'Thun and Yogg-Saron stirred from their ancient slumbers, and the growing influence of the Old Gods magnified Deathwing's power ten-fold.
From within his lair in the elemental plane of Deepholm, Deathwing awoke from his slumber and literally erupted into the world. His explosion into Azeroth was so powerful that it tore a rift between the Elemental Plane and Azeroth and caused earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and floods, reshaping the very face of the world.
Very few lands have remained untouched in the wake of the devastating Shattering. Stormwind City got its share of the destruction when Deathwing swooped into it and crashed down on the city gates.
The entire park was blown away, and his searing heat caused the towers where he landed to glow red until they were fully repaired. Afterward, he flew off, something which puzzled the city guards as they are certain he would be able to destroy the entire city if he wanted to.
Following his explosive escape from Deepholm, Deathwing cast a deadly shadow over the people of Azeroth. Deathwing randomly chose zones to attack; a reddened sky was the only warning before every living creature caught in his approach was consumed by his terrible fire and killed. Dying in this manner rewarded the [ Stood in the Fire ] achievement. Deathwing continued strafing random zones "until his ruinous reign was brought to an end" until the end of patch 4.
The main storyline quest of the Badlands in Cataclysm is centered around Rheastrasza and her research of the black dragonflight and of a way of purifying them. She has captured the black dragon, Nyxondra , and forces her to lay eggs for the experiments. She feels pity for the black dragon but knows it is for the greater good. After succeeding in creating a purified black dragon egg, she constantly moves around to avoid being found by agents of the black dragonflight, who want to destroy the egg.
In the quest [] Rheastrasza's Gift , she is killed by Deathwing, who was after the egg. The egg he destroyed, however, was not the purified one, but Rheastrasza's own egg.
The real egg, purified by a titan device an adventurer acquires during the quest chain, hatches into Wrathion. There is also a minor quest chain involving Theldurin the Lost and his friends telling rather tall tales about how each of them defeated Deathwing.
At the beginning of the storyline, Deathwing summons the Firelord, Ragnaros along with his fire elemental servants into the world of Azeroth, aided by his mortal followers, the Twilight's Hammer cult with the ultimate goal of destroying Nordrassil.
During the Uldum storyline it is revealed that Deathwing enlisted the aid of Al'Akir and his air elemental minions to do his bidding. The Neferset tribe of the Tol'vir , native residents of Uldum, have also joined his ranks as they have been seduced by the promises of power and removal of the Curse of Flesh. Al'Akir, as well as mortal forces led by Commander Schnottz , also sought to gain control of the Forge of Origination , a titan superweapon capable of wiping out all life on Azeroth.
Deathwing is later seen in the Twilight highlands quest chain. After beating back his Twilight dragon minions, the player along with Alexstrasza and her son Calen , use a sanctified circle of life to lure Deathwing to their location so Alexstrasza can destroy him once and for all. The plan quickly falls apart as Deathwing proves to be more powerful then they realize.
After a quick dialogue, Deathwing and Alexstrasza face each other above Grim Batol , shadowing the events of Day of the Dragon.
After a long battle, Alexstrasza and Deathwing spiral out of sight, with Deathwing spitting a stream of magma. Alexstrasza, severely wounded, lands near the entrance and tells the player, along with Calen, that Deathwing was dead.
Soon after, however, Deathwing rises above the hillside, wounded, but not nearly as bad as Alexstrasza. The player then flees with the near-dead Alexstrasza as Calen distracts Deathwing long enough for them to escape. Deathwing then leaves as, according to Calen, he was wounded more then he let on and needed time to heal. Deathwing uses [ Shadowflame ]. It is revealed that once, long ago, Deathwing had been warned that an orc named Thrall would rise to challenge and possibly defeat him.
So Deathwing sent out the Twilight Father to kill him. Deathwing sends Blackmoore from an alternate universe in an attempt to assassinate Thrall, but the plan fails when Thrall kills Blackmoore. Following the death of Malygos , the Blue Dragonflight are torn between two possible new leaders - Kalecgos , and Arygos. Ultimately, it is revealed that Arygos has entered into an alliance with the Blue Dragonflight's original despoiler, Deathwing, in order to become the new Aspect of Magic - and Deathwing, though eager to see him overthrow Kalecgos, warns him not to repeat the mistakes of his father.
Their plot ends in failure, however, as Tarecgosa sacrifices herself to save Kalecgos from Arygos' assault, and Arygos flees Coldarra - swearing that Neltharion will destroy them all. As Thrall and the other Aspects, including the newly-elevated Kalecgos, debated on how to defeat Deathwing, the shaman's spirit communed with the earth and took an earthen form. It was there that he encountered Deathwing, using the power of the Old Gods to imprison his spirit within.
The corrupted Aspect mocked Thrall, believing that the Aspects sought to replace him as Earth-Warder with the mortal shaman, and claiming that the "gift" he had been granted by the Titans - his charge to defend Azeroth - was in fact a curse, imprisoning him to his duty. To demonstrate, he allowed Thrall to experience what it was like to have the weight of the earth on his shoulders, claiming that this was what the Aspects wanted - "to damn you to a life of eternal torment", as Deathwing stated it.
He then unleashed a series of scathing attacks against Thrall's earthen form; because the shaman had embraced Azeroth, and Azeroth embraced him, his "wounds" materialized in the physical world in the form of earthquakes. The Aspects decided that in order to defeat Deathwing, they would have to acquire the Dragon Soul in its "purest form" - a period not long after its creation, during the War of the Ancients ten millennia earlier.
As the Soul was imbued with a powerful enchantment to prevent dragonkind from ever using it, the Aspects called on Thrall to be the wielder of the Dragon Soul in the battle against Deathwing. Deathwing is the final boss of the Dragon Soul raid that opened with Patch 4. The final battle against Deathwing is actually two encounters within the same instance; one fought on his back as he flies toward the Maelstrom , and then the final battle at the Maelstrom itself.
Deathwing also features heavily in the three five-man dungeons that lead up to the raid. In the first, End Time , the future is shown if Deathwing is not defeated and the Hour of Twilight at last falls - a charred Dragonblight in Northrend, with all life extinguished forever.
Deathwing is shown as a burnt-out shell of his former self, his powers having, at last, destroyed him from within. His lifeless corpse is impaled at the top of Wyrmrest Temple, his lava-like blood seeping from his mouth. To prevent the Hour of Twilight, the bronze aspect Nozdormu sends adventurers to go ten thousand years into the past, to the War of the Ancients, and retrieve the Dragon Soul - having been completely obliterated by Rhonin and Krasus shortly before the Shattering - so that Thrall could invoke its power to defeat Deathwing, though his past self tried to jealously defend the talisman from the adventurers - but it doesn't work.
Once the artifact is retrieved, the adventurers must escort Thrall to Wyrmrest Temple and protect him from Deathwing's minions, so that the weapon could be secured for the final battle. In the Dragon Soul raid, adventurers work together to defeat Deathwing's commanders in order to buy Thrall and the Aspects time to charge the Demon Soul.
Deathwing's forces were killed over several weeks. When the twilight dragon falls, Thrall unleashes the Demon Soul upon its creator. Wounded, Deathwing flees, attempting to return to the relative safety of Deepholm, through the Maelstrom. Thrall, the Aspects, and the Adventurers give chase, riding the Alliance gunship The Skyfire after the Aspect of Death, battling his personal escort along the way.
The battles against Deathwing lasted "a few terrible hours". After catching up, the adventurers leap out of The Skyfire's bomb bay to parachute onto Deathwing's back and begin prying the elementium plates from his back, eventually making a big enough opening for Thrall to blast Deathwing with the Demon Soul.
Deathwing is blasted out of the sky, and crashes into the Maelstrom. The defenders of Azeroth briefly rejoice at having rid themselves of the Destroyer, but Deathwing rises from the Maelstrom. Without his armor, his molten form begins to mutate, granting him a form far more terrifying than before somewhat resembling creatures like Iso'rath. The final battle for Azeroth began in earnest, as Deathwing continuously attempted to finish the job he started by bringing forth a second Cataclysm that would end the world.
Each time, the Aspects step in and use their power to stop him until one final blow from the Demon Soul completely obliterates the corrupted Aspect, leaving only the remnants of his shattered armor. Portions of his metal jaw are brought to the Western Earthshrine in Orgrimmar and the Eastern Earthshrine in Stormwind to commemorate his defeat.
Much like the statue in Dalaran commemorating the fall of the Lich King, the monument also allows the ability to see the ending cinematic after Deathwing's fall; speaking to Lord Itharius in Orgrimmar or Chromie in Stormwind will play the final cinematic. A portion of Deathwing's jaw on display near the Eastern Earthshrine in Stormwind.
A portion of Deathwing's jaw on display near the Western Earthshrine in Orgrimmar. Deathwing makes two appearances during Lorewalker Cho 's history lessons. In [] The Zandalari Prophecy , Zul had seen a vision a great armored dragon clenching the world with his ferocious jaws.
King Rastakhan did nothing of the coming of this Cataclysm. Lorewalker Cho then established that his visions did come to past and Zuldazar was no more. In [] Gods and Monsters , Deathwing can be seen alongside Wrathion. A council of the six greatest warlocks eventually sought the powers their defeated foes wielded, including Deathwing.
Deathwing's banishment from Highmountain at the hands of Huln Highmountain and the [ Hammer of Khaz'goroth ] is witnessed in visions during Mayla Highmountain 's trials to become high chieftain in [] The Path of Huln and [] Titanic Showdown. An illusion of Deathwing appears during the final battle with N'Zoth the Corruptor , raining fire down on the raid. When N'Zoth was freed from his prison, his vision for Wrathion was to corrupt him just as he had Neltharion , with Wrathion ruling the revived Black Empire under N'Zoth's command.
Ironically given Deathwing's status as the Old Gods' most powerful servant, [11] it would be his scion Wrathion who would play a key role in N'Zoth's final defeat by coming up with the plan to use the Forge of Origination , as well as using Xal'atath to open a hole in N'Zoth's carapace and allow heroes to begin the final battle.
A vision of Deathwing fighting the aspects appears within the nightmares of Ysera. While Deathwing was once a benevolent entity, the whispers of the Old Gods have corrupted him into a being driven by hatred. He harbors a hatred for all mortal races and wishes to see them dead. He's also been driven utterly insane by the whispers plaguing him, especially when in possession of the Demon Soul. Deathwing was so attached to it that, even when warned by the goblin alchemists who made his first armor that the Demon Soul's energies would kill him if he kept it with him too long, he only agreed to part with it temporarily after being reminded that it would likely be stolen from him if he were to die.
In spite of this insanity, Deathwing does display a degree of cunning. Although he hates mortals, he is apparently willing to tolerate them if it can prove of any help in his plans, though inevitably he will do away with them when they have outlived their usefulness.
Despite Deathwing's overall loathing of mortals, he has a sense of respect for, and perhaps even a fear of, Medivh , stating in Day of the Dragon that he would never willingly face Medivh in combat, though this might have technically been fear of the portion of Sargeras that was locked inside Medivh.
He viewed Thrall in a similar way; when the Twilight Father expressed disbelief that Thrall could triumph, Deathwing made it clear that he planned to take no chances. He also showed genuine loyalty to the Old Gods due to his belief that they could free him from his burden.
As a young proto-dragon, Neltharion was a lover of combat He taunted those afraid of Galakrond for being weak, and got himself involved in a fight between Malygos and Coros simply to show off his own strength.
It was Malygos's power which led to Neltharion sparking their friendship. He is usually referred to as "Deathwing" by the majority of beings. Only a few mages, night elves and dragons still call him "Neltharion". However, over the years Deathwing has been given many names, including, but not limited to:. One of the big questions during the Cataclysm development was "what does Deathwing look like? Deathwing had been established in lore for a long time, but he had never been depicted in that much detail other than some images from Chris Metzen and Warcraft II.
But to have a really comprehensive design for Deathwing was an early top priority. The developers wanted Deathwing to have a unique, nasty and aggressive look, but also wanted to have the preexisting World of Warcraft dragons look as if they were part of the same family. They headed into the idea that Deathwing's rage manifests itself literally as the boiling lava inside him and he actually needs metal plates to contain them.
On their search for a unique signature that would set Deathwing apart from the other dragons the development team experimented with his jaw. So they replaced his jaw on an early sketch with a metallic one and made it bigger, giving him a very unique silhouette. When they showed it to the game team the immediate reaction was extremely positive.
When he succumbed, Neltharion ceased to exist, taking up a new name and a bitter purpose. He became Deathwing and his subjects were placed beneath the iron rule of a tyrant.
Upon his irrevocable shift to evil, he turned against his destiny, and his mind unwound, causing suffering wherever he could. When he went mad, Deathwing lowered the mountains and allowed the races to intermingle. He ruined fertile land and destroyed other terrain so that the races would be forced to fight for food. Deathwing's efforts gave birth to an occupation that has remained with all races since then: war.
Deathwing is a terrifying opponent who is as cruel as he is vicious. He cares nothing for honor or nobility, striking with whatever weapons and cunning he has at his disposal, reveling in causing earthquakes and ripping open volcanic fissures. He often sends his minions into combat while he surveys the battlefield, striking at whatever weaknesses he discovers.
He was a young human diplomat and noble that joined the high council of the Alliance during the Second War. The ancient black dragon Deathwing returned to Northrend and landed in the Dragonblight , at the foot of Wyrmrest Temple. He announced that he is close to death and wishes to end his life there with the others already present. Many of the blue dragons were furious that their ancient enemy would claim such an honor there. Others admired his willingness to set aside the past. The non-dragons were simply excited at the idea that such a powerful dragon was there.
The Lich King wants to corrupt him and make him undead while the nerubians want to enlist him in their cause and unleash him upon the Scourge before he dies. Scavengers want his bones and flesh and treasure-hunters want his skin and claws and any items he carries.
The heroes will have to keep this situation from escalating into a multi-sided war. During the canceled Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans game, Thrall would have met with Deathwing in order to match wits. Thrall killed him by closing shut his fire-breathing organs from inside his very body with a metal trap, leading to the evil dragon exploding when trying to use his fire breath against the orc. The fact that Deathwing was seen smoking a hookah was blamed on a "miscommunication", [70] but Blizzard chose to keep it anyway.
However, it also killed most of the night elves. Then Neltharion turned to the other dragons and essentially said, "By the way, I was the only one who didn't put any of my power in here, so I'm now stronger than you. And you know what would be awesome?
Me ruling the world. Neltharion's appearance changed from a normal dragon into a big fiery demon dragon, and he was reborn as Deathwing the Destroyer. After this battle, the four other aspects hid themselves, along with their dragonflights.
The Dragon Soul now known as the Demon Soul was killing Deathwing, so he had the goblins forge him some adamantite armor to keep him from being torn apart. The Demon Soul went on to have many great adventures with Malfurion and Illidan that we're not going to get into here, but after the defeat of the Burning Legion the other four aspects sealed it up and Malfurion hid it so that Deathwing couldn't use it anymore.
Deathwing waited for ten thousand years, causing a lot of earth-related havoc in the meantime. Near the end of the second war the one with the Horde attacking everything , Deathwing snuck across to Draenor and hid some eggs, which became the Netherwing Flight. After he got back, he discovered the location of the Demon Soul. He decided that if he couldn't use it to destroy the world, then someone ought to.
He used a goblin servant to give the artifact to the orcs of Grim Batol, who used it to enslave Alexstrasza and the Red Dragonflight. He then tried to maneuver a human mage, Rhonin, and some of his companions in a complicated plot to get the orcs to move Alexstrasza and her eggs out of Grim Batol.
There, he figured, he could capture or kill Alexstrasza and steal some of her eggs to raise as his own. He also posed as Lord Daval Prestor and became King of Alterac, in sort of a secondary plot to destroy the Alliance from within. But in the end, Rhonin destroyed the Demon Soul and Deathwing was sent running from the four other dragon aspects, now returned to their full power.
What he's up to now: While players haven't encountered Deathwing for some time, he's been quite busy. According to Night of the Dragon , Deathwing has been hidden away from the prying eyes of the other Aspects and attempting to create the ultimate Dragonflight with which to conquer or destroy Azeroth.
In the quest [47] Rheastrasza's Gift , she is killed by Deathwing, who was after the egg. The egg he destroyed, however, was not the purified one, but Rheastrasza's own egg. There is also a quest chain involving Theldurin the Lost and his friends telling rather tall tales about how each of them defeated Deathwing.
At the beginning of the storyline, Deathwing summons the Firelord, Ragnaros along with his fire elemental servants into the world of Azeroth, aided by his mortal followers, the Twilight's Hammer clan with the ultimate goal of destroying Nordrassil. During the Uldum storyline it is revealed that Deathwing enlisted the aid of Al'Akir and his air elemental minions to do his bidding.
The Tol'vir , native residents of Uldum have joined his ranks as well, seduced by the promises of power and removal of the Curse of Flesh. He also sent his mortal minions, led by Commander Schnottz to gain control of the Maker's Terrace and reconfigure it into a weapon of mass destruction.
In Twilight Highlands the Horde fleet is ambushed, undefended, by Deathwing and his twilight drakes. Though Garrosh is personally able to fend one such drake off, his ship itself suffers massive damage and falls into the ocean below.
The remainder of the fleet suffers a similar fate, crashing down into the sea. Deathwing is later seen in the Twilight highlands quest chain.
After beating back his Twilight dragon minions, the player along with Alexstrasza and her son Calen , use a sanctified circle of life to lure Deathwing to their location so Alexstrasza could destroy him once and for all. The plan quickly falls apart as Deathwing proves to be more powerful then they realize.

Following the death of Malygos , the Blue Dragonflight are torn between two possible new leaders - Kalecgos , and Arygos.
Ultimately, it is revealed that Arygos has entered into an alliance with the Blue Dragonflight's original despoiler, Deathwing, in order to become the new Aspect of Magic - and Deathwing, though eager to see him overthrow Kaelcgos, warns him not to repeat the mistakes of his father.
Their plot ends in failure, however, as Tarecgosa sacrifices herself to save Kalecgos from Arygos' assault, and Arygos flees Coldarra - swearing that Neltharion will destroy them all. Deathwing's possible future - a burnt shell impaled at the summit of Wyrmrest Temple.

Thrall and his allies from the Wyrmrest Accord fight their way past Deathwing and the Old God's minions. The heroes leap atop Deathwing's back and make use of the crazed Elementals atop his back to remove his Elementium plating.
Deathwing then falls into the Maelstrom. When he rises he is completely insane and the gathered heroes manage to defeat him. After he falls Thrall announces that he can feel the elements awakening and rejoicing, and that the Cataclysm is over. During the cancelled Warcraft Adventures: Lord of the Clans game, Thrall would have met with Deathwing in order to match wits.
The fact that Deathwing was seen smoking a hookah was blamed on a "miscommunication".

Deathwing sends Blackmoore from an alternate false universe in an attempt to assassinate Thrall, but the plan fails when Thrall kills Blackmoore. While Deathwing was once a benevolent entity, he is now completely evil.
He hates all mortal races, and wishes to kill them all. He's also utterly insane, most notably shown when he had the Demon Soul. Deathwing was attached to it, such that even when warned by the goblin alchemists who made his first armor that the Demon Soul's energies would kill him if he kept it with him too long, it wasn't enough for him to let go of it, and was only willing to part with, temporarily, when reminded that it would likely be stolen from him if he was dead.
