||
| + | '''Luxor Armstead''' is a former citizen of [[Gilneas]]. After giving his help in the [[Gilneas civil war]] and the [[Invasion of Gilneas]] he was, togeather with the others, evacuated to [[Darnassus]], but not long after that he moved to an appartement is the [[Cathedral Square]], in [[Stormwind City]]. |
||
| − | The '''elementals''' are potent and volatile [[elemental spirit]]s of pure elemental energies and were once the minions of the [[Old Gods]] (and some may still be). Many are commanded by the most powerful [[The Old Gods and the Ordering of Azeroth|elemental lieutenants]] called the [[Elemental Lord]]s — [[Ragnaros|Ragnaros the Firelord]], [[Therazane|Therazane the Stonemother]], [[Al'Akir|Al'Akir the Windlord]], and [[Neptulon|Neptulon the Tidehunter]] — whilst others are commanded by primordial elementals known as [[Elemental Spirits]]. |
||
| + | ==Biography== |
||
| − | There are four types of elementals, each corresponding to the basic elements of the world: earth, fire, wind, and water. Each elemental tends to be immune to damage from their element type. For instance, fire elementals are immune to fire damage. |
||
| + | Luxor Armstead was born to a poor hunter and his wife, who lived in a small house in the middle of [[Gilneas City]], following the birth of his sister, two years years later. Luxor grew up in [[Gilneas]], spending most of his time with hunting with his father in the forests. Luxor got to school in the same class as [[Liam Greymane]], prince of the kingdom and they became friends. On the age of 20, he fought alongside the other Gilneans in the [[Gilneas civil war]]. He defended his city from the feral [[worgen]]. In that war, he was bitten by one, but ignored it and fought futher. However, he slowly changed in one of them. He got crazy and even killed his entire family. Eventually, he was captured by the Gilneans, but they kept him alive, because they thought he could still be saved. They freed him in [[Duskhaven]], because they needed his help in the [[Invasion of Gilneas]], which later coused the death of [[Liam Greymane|Liam]] and Luxor's dog, Bully. Although Luxor and the other Gilneans stood strong against the [[Forsaken]] and the [[Orc|orcs]], Gilneas lost, and they were forced to leave. |
||
| + | Luxor and the other failed but survived Gilneans were evacuated to [[Darnassus]]. Luxor lived a while in the [[Night elf|night elven]] city of [[Lor'danel]], and the time that he lived there was the most depressing time of his life. Not just because of the depressive environment of [[Darkshore]], but also because he had recently lost his dog, his best friend, and his entire family. He had no friends or family left. After a view months, he moved to a small appartement in the [[Cathedral Square]] in [[Stormwind City]], and found a job as one of the royal hunters of [[Stormwind (kingdom)|Stormwind]]. Soon they foud out that Luxor was a very skilled and talented hunter, and they started to give him more difficult missions. He was send to [[Duskwood]], [[Stranglethorn Vale|Stranglethorn]], the [[Plaguelands]], [[Winterspring]], and then... [[Outland]]. He accepted the job, knowing that he wouldn't be able to come home for a while. And there he still is, in [[Honor Hold]], where he resides in the local inn, fighting against the might of the [[Burning Legion]]. |

| − | ==Characteristics in World of Warcraft== |
||
| − | * Chaotic manifestations of the elements. |
||
| − | * Cannot be skinned. |
||
| − | * [[Enchanting|Enchanter]]s can enchant weapons with Elemental Slaying, which gives the player bonus attack power against Elementals, and also causes their weapon to glow red. |
||
| − | * All elementals can be [[Banish]]ed by [[Warlock]]s. |
||
| − | * Some have innate abilities; many resist (or are immune to) attacks from the element which with they are affiliated. |
||
| − | * A large number of Elementals look similar to the Voidwalker; for example, many Fire Elementals use orange, flaming Voidwalker models. |
||
| + | ==Personallity== |
||
| − | == History and Culture == |
||
| + | Unlike most other [[Gilneas|Gilneans]], Luxor's handling with other people is softly and friendly. He is charming to women. He likes to drink a beer, but knows when to stop; he is always sober and smart, and is confident and knows what to do. Not only in social dealing, but also in combat. |
||
| − | When the Old Gods were defeated and imprisoned by the [[Titan]]s, the Titans banished all elementals to the [[Elemental Plane]]. The [[Elemental Plane]] is a violent and dangerous place where elementals of one type battle with all others in a never-ending conflict to expand their territory. It is no wonder, then, that some elementals attempt to escape from the unceasing struggle by traveling to Azeroth, where they establish solitary lairs in suitable environments. Such transplanted elementals find it difficult to shake off the warlike existence they lived on the Elemental Plane; they guard their new territory viciously and constantly seek to expand their boundaries. |
||
| + | ===Hobbies and interests=== |
||
| − | All elementals speak Kalimag and, whether summoned to Azeroth or there of their own free will, wear a set of magic bracers. These bracers form automatically when the elemental leaves the Elemental Plane. They tie the elemental to Azeroth and allow it to exist outside of the Elemental Plane. If the magic of the bracer's is disrupted, usually by prolonged physical or magical attack, the elemental loses much of its power and may inadvertently return to the Elemental Plane.{{Cite|MG|53}} |
||
| + | '''Reading''' - Luxor loves to read old, Gilnean books, so you might often find him in the librery.<br /> |
||
| + | '''Engineering''' - Luxor has an intrest in technology. He is very handy in fixing and even making things.<br /> |
||
| + | '''Hunting''' - Luxor loves his work, where he come close to nature together with his pet.<br /> |
||
| + | ===Relations and opinions=== |
||
| − | Over the centuries, they have been finding ways to return to Azeroth, and now run rampant in many areas, though it's usually only the weakest of their ranks that are able to slip through the "cracks". All but the most powerful elementals are mindless beings, who carry out tasks at the whim of their masters. Recently however, more and more elementals have begun appearing on Azeroth, serving an as yet unidentified purpose. |
||
| + | * [[Alliance]]: Luxor thinks is was a good idea to join the Alliance. |
||
| + | ** [[Stormwind (faction)|Stormwind]]: Luxor thinks [[Stormwind City|Stormwind]] is beautifel city and the people are very nice. |
||
| + | ** [[Darnassus (faction)|Darnassus]]: Since the [[Night elf|night elves]] helped Gilneas during it's invasion, he likes nigh elves. |
||
| + | ** [[Gilneas (faction)|Gilneas]]: Luxor whould defenitly die for his kingdom. |
||
| + | * [[Horde]]: Since it was the Horde who had invaded Gilneas, he really really hates the Horde. |
||
| + | ** [[Orgrimmar (faction)|Orgrimmar]]: Luxor thinks [[Orc|orcs]] ar primitive brutes, and hates them. Especially [[Garrosh Hellscream]] |
||
| + | ** [[Undercity (faction)|Undercity]]: The [[undead]] [[Forsaken]] is the thing he most hates. |
||
| + | ** [[Thunder Bluff (faction)|Thunder Bluff]]: The only [[tauren]] Luxor has ever seen was in the [[Darkmoon Faire]], and since that guy was nice, his preliminary forecast is that tauren are nice and peaceful. |
||
| + | * [[Burning Legion]]: Since recentely, Luxor fought the Burning Legion. He thinks the same about the Buning Legion as the Legion does about life. |
||
| + | * [[Scourge]]: Luxor thinks that the Scourge's mentality is the same as the Forsaken's. |
||
| + | ==Apperance== |
||
| − | Air, earth, fire, and water elementals exist in the primitive places of Azeroth, enjoying those sites where their elements can shine through. These creatures are powerful - and make for even more powerful allies and servants. Therefore, necromancers, and wizards hunt them for their magic and their abilities. Most elementals will kill mortal creatures on sight, either to defend their territories or out of pure spite and amusement. Very few elementals are peaceful in any way.{{Cite|MoM|191}} |
||
| + | Unlike his personality, Luxor's look is pretty much what you would expect from a [[Gilneas|Gilnean]]; a large, bearish man. He is small for his age, and has a big mustache and a small beard, and small, green eyes. He also has a pony tail, but he always hides it underneath his Gilnean hat. In his worgen form, his hair is black or dark grey, he's got blue eyes and big, sharp teath. |
||
| + | ==Notes and trivia== |
||
| − | Some intelligent creatures of Azeroth have found ways to summon elementals and bind them to their will as servants or guards. [[Human]] [[mage]]s are fond of summoning Water Elementals for their brute force and imposing size. [[Ragnaros]] was summoned into the material plane by the [[Dark Iron Dwarves]] three centuries ago, and now resides in the [[Molten Core]], though he is but a shadow of his original self there. When he was first summoned into Azeroth by [[Sorcerer-thane Thaurissan]], the dwarf was killed by the unmitigated fiery powers that he had unleashed. |
||
| + | ===Pets and mounts=== |
||
| − | |||
| + | For his 9th birthday, Luxor got a bulldog, which he named Bully. Bully died following the [[Invasion of Gilneas]]. In [[Lordaeron (continent)|Lordaeron]], he tamed a wolf, which he named after his hunting trainer in [[Stormwind City|Stormwind]], [[Wulf Hansreim|Wulf]]. With the move to [[Stormwind City|Stormwind]], he also bought a black stallion, which he called Motor. With his move to [[Honor Hold]], he bought a [[gryphon]], which he called Aerie. |
||
| − | The four lieutenants, seemingly no longer under the Old Gods' control, are finding new ways to wage war against each other, and it's possible that one or more of their factions are working for the good of Azeroth. Though they fight each other, they still maintain an [[Abyssal High Council]]. |
||

They are could intertwine with the current world of Azeroth.

- "I will never forget what I did to my mother... my sister... and... my father."
- —Luxor after he found what he did to his family
Luxor Armstead is a former citizen of Gilneas. After giving his help in the Gilneas civil war and the Invasion of Gilneas he was, togeather with the others, evacuated to Darnassus, but not long after that he moved to an appartement is the Cathedral Square, in Stormwind City.
Biography
Luxor Armstead was born to a poor hunter and his wife, who lived in a small house in the middle of Gilneas City, following the birth of his sister, two years years later. Luxor grew up in Gilneas, spending most of his time with hunting with his father in the forests. Luxor got to school in the same class as Liam Greymane, prince of the kingdom and they became friends. On the age of 20, he fought alongside the other Gilneans in the Gilneas civil war. He defended his city from the feral worgen. In that war, he was bitten by one, but ignored it and fought futher. However, he slowly changed in one of them. He got crazy and even killed his entire family. Eventually, he was captured by the Gilneans, but they kept him alive, because they thought he could still be saved. They freed him in Duskhaven, because they needed his help in the Invasion of Gilneas, which later coused the death of Liam and Luxor's dog, Bully. Although Luxor and the other Gilneans stood strong against the Forsaken and the orcs, Gilneas lost, and they were forced to leave.
Luxor and the other failed but survived Gilneans were evacuated to Darnassus. Luxor lived a while in the night elven city of Lor'danel, and the time that he lived there was the most depressing time of his life. Not just because of the depressive environment of Darkshore, but also because he had recently lost his dog, his best friend, and his entire family. He had no friends or family left. After a view months, he moved to a small appartement in the Cathedral Square in Stormwind City, and found a job as one of the royal hunters of Stormwind. Soon they foud out that Luxor was a very skilled and talented hunter, and they started to give him more difficult missions. He was send to Duskwood, Stranglethorn, the Plaguelands, Winterspring, and then... Outland. He accepted the job, knowing that he wouldn't be able to come home for a while. And there he still is, in Honor Hold, where he resides in the local inn, fighting against the might of the Burning Legion.
Personallity
Unlike most other Gilneans, Luxor's handling with other people is softly and friendly. He is charming to women. He likes to drink a beer, but knows when to stop; he is always sober and smart, and is confident and knows what to do. Not only in social dealing, but also in combat.
Hobbies and interests
Reading - Luxor loves to read old, Gilnean books, so you might often find him in the librery.
Engineering - Luxor has an intrest in technology. He is very handy in fixing and even making things.
Hunting - Luxor loves his work, where he come close to nature together with his pet.
Relations and opinions
- Alliance: Luxor thinks is was a good idea to join the Alliance.
- Stormwind: Luxor thinks Stormwind is beautifel city and the people are very nice.
- Darnassus: Since the night elves helped Gilneas during it's invasion, he likes nigh elves.
- Gilneas: Luxor whould defenitly die for his kingdom.
- Horde: Since it was the Horde who had invaded Gilneas, he really really hates the Horde.
- Orgrimmar: Luxor thinks orcs ar primitive brutes, and hates them. Especially Garrosh Hellscream
- Undercity: The undead Forsaken is the thing he most hates.
- Thunder Bluff: The only tauren Luxor has ever seen was in the Darkmoon Faire, and since that guy was nice, his preliminary forecast is that tauren are nice and peaceful.
- Burning Legion: Since recentely, Luxor fought the Burning Legion. He thinks the same about the Buning Legion as the Legion does about life.
- Scourge: Luxor thinks that the Scourge's mentality is the same as the Forsaken's.
Apperance
Unlike his personality, Luxor's look is pretty much what you would expect from a Gilnean; a large, bearish man. He is small for his age, and has a big mustache and a small beard, and small, green eyes. He also has a pony tail, but he always hides it underneath his Gilnean hat. In his worgen form, his hair is black or dark grey, he's got blue eyes and big, sharp teath.
Notes and trivia
Pets and mounts
For his 9th birthday, Luxor got a bulldog, which he named Bully. Bully died following the Invasion of Gilneas. In Lordaeron, he tamed a wolf, which he named after his hunting trainer in Stormwind, Wulf. With the move to Stormwind, he also bought a black stallion, which he called Motor. With his move to Honor Hold, he bought a gryphon, which he called Aerie.
