KEY Nightsabre Form/Scorpion Form Night Elf Form Shared Fandral
After Malfurion's return Fandral was taken to Moonglade as a Prisoner of the Cenarion Circle at the behest of the Dragon Alysra who turned out to be corrupted by the Twilight's Hammer Clan and freed Fandral of his Chains before the two kneeled to the Firelord Ragnaros. Fandral became Ragnaros' Majordomo and Archdruid of the Flame while Alysra became Alysrazor.
From then on Fandral served within the Firelands before Heroes of Azeroth came and slew him on the Steps of the Sulfuron Keep, banishing him to the Nexus where he ponders his inevitable Revenge.
"The Hatred burns within me like a Raging Inferno. I will not be denied my Vengeance against the Mortals of Azeroth but until that day comes ALL of the Nexus will burn!" - Majordomo Fandral Staghelm.
Constructive Criticism and Opinions are much appreciated.

Lichlord Fandral
A Scourge Lich Theme Night Elf Form with Plague Infested Nightsabre and Scorpion (Like Animals in Eastern Plaguelands) with Death Knight Inspired Graphics for Abilities.
My ideas for Heroic upgrades: First one: Blazing maelstrom: The pullin is much stronger and at the end of the ability, all affected are Burned. Second one: Incarnation: Piercer of the Firelands: Become an improved version of the scorpion which has 30 % more attack and ability power and have a searing aura around yourself. Change if it is to powerful or if doesn't fit with your concept. =)
Thanks Tacobreaker, those are two cool ideas and I will definitely keep them in mind.
