Sargeras

**Sargeras** is the planet-sized titan who founded the Burning Legion and is the principal of all demons. Formerly a champion of the Pantheon, he is sworn to defend the Milky Way and is the chosen one of Aman'thul. One day, he tore apart the planet Mardum, and the extreme concentration of fel magic coming from the planet turned him into an embodiment of demonic, burning hatred. With new demonic powers and Vortana's infusion of pure evil, he formed his own Burning Legion, which endangered the Milky Way Galaxy. Sargeras' goal is no longer to protect the galaxy, and instead he aims to destroy not the galaxy but the entire universe. Now he was the corrupted titan incarnated by fel magic.

Sargeras also benefited Vortana, the goddess of chaos, with their corruption, which included the dark elves in the Burning Legion. This situation not only endangered the entire Milky Way, but also posed a potential threat to the Dyshi pantheon.

## History

Victorious, Sargeras evaluated his Demonic army. Although overwhelmingly strong, they lacked strategic thinking and he could not lead every attack alone; He needed valuable lieutenants. He found what he was looking for in the Eredar, a highly intelligent race who are masters of magic. He seduced two of his leaders, Archimonde and Kil'jaeden, into serving him for great power, but not all were deceived; Velen saw through the lies and fled with some of his people, becoming a Draenei.

Ever since he heard about Azeroth, Sargeras wanted to prioritize it, but he didn't know where the planet was located in the galaxy. That is, until he senses the great magical power of the Well of Eternity, a flow of magical power across Azeroth, and gives him a goal for his crusade. To destroy the world spirit of Azeroth, Sargeras had to be there in person, but if he were to physically travel there it would take countless millennia. That's why space travel is done through portals; but the larger the thing you need to travel through, the larger the portal.

Sargeras first sent his voice to influence the leaders of Azeroth, the noble elves, so that he could corrupt them as he did the Eredar. Once he captured the planet, he sent one of his chosen Eredar, Archimonde, to initiate his plan to summon Sargeras to Azeroth. This led to the War of the Ancients, in which the Night Elves, Cenarius' woodland creatures, and Alexstrasza's Crimson Dragons faced off against the Burning Legion and managed to prevent Sargeras' arrival in Azeroth. The defeat of his first invasion caused Sargeras to rethink his approach to destroying Azeroth. If he wanted to be summoned to the planet, he had to first focus on destroying the races that lived on it.

It would be 9,000 years before he would have the opportunity to influence Azeroth once again, and he would do so using the Guards of Tirisfal. This order was created to fight demonic invasions, so he would use it against them and send an Avatar of himself into battle. His avatar was defeated by Aegwynn, the then-chosen Guardian, and said avatar's corpse was hidden in Azeroth. Sargeras used this connection to slowly corrupt the mind of the Guardian and thus his child, Medivh. When Medivh came of age and eventually became the Guardian of Tirisfal, Sargeras found a way to enter the planet, but focusing on summoning himself there would be repeating the mistakes of the past. Instead, he had Medivh communicate with Gul'dan, an Orc Sorcerer from Draenor.

Sargeras was actually near Argus because the planet had a world spirit within it. He was corrupting said soul with Fel energies so he could have a Titan ally on his side, unknowingly doing the same thing he feared the Void Lords would do.

In the many battles leading up to the final confrontation, the forces of Azeroth managed to restore the Titan Pantheon, slain by Sargeras eons ago. With the help of the Pantheon, Sargeras was finally sealed away, bringing an end to the Burning Legion and saving the Milky Way Galaxy, but not without one last trick from the Fel Titan. While he was carried away, Sargeras drew his sword in a desperate attempt to kill the world spirit within Azeroth. He managed to sink his sword deep into the planet's core, and to this day the extent of damage he inflicted on the unborn Titan is unknown.
