Naga (Warcraft)

Backstory

During the War of the Ancients the Highborne, led by Queen Azshara, called forth the forces of the Burning Legion. When the Well of Eternity imploded some of the Highborne survived, but many went down with the land. The magic contained in the well allowed the latter beings to survive, however, and they became known as the naga.

Description

The naga generally have a humanoid torso with a snakes tail in place of their legs. The males appear more draconic, and have devolved into beasts. The females still look elven, but can have four or more arms, and possibly snakes for hair.

History

The Naga now live under the Maelstrom in the great city of Nazjatar, where Queen Azshara rules. They wait for the right time to take back the land, but some were too impatient and left to join Illidan.
