:All the action figure turned comic book characters are named after an NPC, but it does seem to be pointless speculation if they are not in the same area, and have never said to be related.--{{User:Sandwichman2448/Sig}} 23:05, October 31, 2009 (UTC)

Revision as of 23:05, 31 October 2009

Forums: Village pump → Relatives of NPCs

Many articles on NPCs include lines which make some guesses on the presumed genealogy of said NPC. The article of Broll Bearmantle has the following information: "Broll's name suggests that he may be related to Athridas Bearmantle, a level 11 quest giver in Dolanaar." Broll is not alone in this issue: there are many NPC articles out there in which WoWWikians have attempted to establish some family connection with another character sometimes on the other side of Azeroth. Clearly, all of this is pure speculation with few to zero chances of us ever finding out whether or not the humble Athridas is really the long lost brother of good ol' Broll.
