Therazane Therazane the Stonemother was one of the leaders of the Old Gods ' armies among other Elemental Lord s who were other powerful elemental lieutenants in their own right : Ragnaros the Firelord , Al ' Akir the Windlord , and Neptulon the Tidehunter . Therazane is a monstrous humanoid covered with stones , earth , and clinging plants . She has squat legs and two powerful arms . Her unblinking eyes of gold - flecked agate look out into the world from her head . ( According to the RPG : She has squat legs and four powerful arms . Her unblinking eyes of gold - flecked agate look out into the world from her one head , but there are two other faces to be seen as well . ) Therazane the Stonemother is ruler over the earth , dirt , rock , and mountains . She is revered by all earth elemental s and creatures that dwell underneath the ground . Some druids of the wild see her as the embodiment of all that is peaceful and calm about the world . Some sages believe she feels pain whenever the ground is sundered and weeps at the destruction wrought by Deathwing and his ilk . If so , however , she has done nothing specific to oppose the great dragon . Therazane is the most peaceful of the Elemental Lord s . She is a patient , loving , motherly type who encourages growing things and loves simply to spend long periods of time relaxing with those creatures that make their homes upon her . She often feels as though she is always at war with the other Elemental Lord s : Al ' Akir erodes her surface with winds , Neptulon beats his waves constantly upon her shores , and Ragnaros is a blazing furnace that churns at her fiery core . She would be perfectly happy if the three of them would just go away . Therazane is slow to anger and attempts to avoid combat whenever possible . If roused to battle , however , she can be a fearsome , powerful opponent . She typically drives toward the most dangerous foe , smashing her target into tiny red pieces before moving on to the next . Should she be seriously challenged , she simply sinks into the earth and retreats . It is theorized by some that the kind and gentle Earthmother to which the tauren refer to is this creature . The War with the Titans . The Old Gods chaotic forces raged across the face of the world and when the titan s arrived on Azeroth they clashed . Though the elementals were powerful beyond mortal comprehension , their combined forces could not stop the mighty titans . One by one , the elemental lords fell , and their forces dispersed . The Pantheon shattered the Old Gods ' citadels and chained three of the five evil gods far beneath the surface of the world . Without the Old Gods ' power to keep their raging spirits bound to the physical world , the elementals were banished to an abyssal plane , where they would contend with one another for all eternity . With the elementals ' departure , nature calmed , and the world settled into a peaceful harmony . Therazane ' s name may be derived from , a Latin word meaning " earth " . Appearance . " As you watch , the earth ahead seems to rise up , forming into a monstrous humanoid covered with stones , earth and clinging plants . It has squat legs and four powerful arms , and the suggestion of large , saggy breasts and wide hips indicate that this creature is undeniably female . Unblinking eyes of gold - flecked agate stare at you from a face that seems curious , inquisitive … and you see what appear to be two other faces beside the one that regards you now , one of anger and fury , the other of perhaps sorrow and longing . " In Cataclysm . Therazane is a quest giver in Deepholm , residing at Therazane ' s Throne . Another bulk of her quests are given at the phased Halcyon Egress . Her quests are similar in experience to the Sons of Hodir ' s questline in Storm Peaks . While she offers quests to adventurers in Deepholm , Therazane makes it clear she has no love for the mortals who killed Princess Theradras , and warns those who speak to her that they will eventually outlive their usefulness . In the Cataclysm beta , Therazane shared a model with Princess Theradras .
