Lore

Azure Drakes are any of a number of dragons which make up the Blue Dragonflight.

Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
The blue dragonflight, while ruled by  Malygos, the lord of magic, was all but devastated by the evil  Deathwing and his black dragonflight. Though there are few great blue dragons left in the world, their magical powers are awesome to behold. Native to Northrend, the few blues stay relatively close to the great Dragonblight, where they commune with the ancient dragon spirits who died in ages past. Their freezing breath and gargantuan claws have been the death of many hapless travelers in Northrend.

Trivia

  • The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Twilight of the Dragons" series, for the card Arygos.
  • This card's art specifically depicts the blue dragon Arygos.
    Warcraft Wiki icon.pngThis section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.
    Arygos was an ancient blue dragon and offspring of Malygos. During the War of the Shifting Sands, he was taken captive by the Qiraji. After the short-lived races freed him from his 9,000-year imprisonment, Arygos openly sided with his father Malygos during the Nexus War. Following the death of his father Arygos wanted to ensure that he was chosen to be the leader of the blue dragonflight and allied himself with Deathwing, but was later betrayed and killed by the Twilight Father.
