Realization About The Antagonist

[Cjmate 1270]

 

Setherin- Lich King

Harbingers- Blood Prince Council

Floating fortress- Naxxramas

The North- Northrend

The gate that the humans are attacking- Wrathgate

Forsaken- Dwarves

Ice castle- Icecrown Citadel 

Cultists- Vrykul

 

Dwarves + Elves = Alliance

Orcs + Humans = Horde

 

Only difference is that humans don't have dragon allies.

It is closer to LotR, in my opinion:

 

• Harbingers are Nazgul
• Setherein is a sort of weird combination between Smaug and Sauron
• Immolated creatures are the orc minions
• They even used to use Black speech.

Come to think of it, the initial antagonist before it was reformed was Sauron and his army— Now it is a little bit more different.

Please don't compare the Antagonists to WoW, that is like the Anime and Punk Rock inspirations to some of the Harbingers...

*never watched lotc. Cries many tears at own ignorance.

 

Edit: Just pointing out what I saw from all of the lore! I do not think it is a bad thing, just something I thought I found similarity in.

[The Fact Core 511]

I see the harbingers mostly as the first stage of Nazguls :P

Never watched LOTC either. I NEVER KNEW WE HAD A MOVIE! That's awesome! Seen LOTR though. ;)
