![]() ![]() ![]() The arrival at Kalimdor reminded the pair of demon lords only too well that the threat of the night elves still remained, as well as the demigod, Cenarius. The pit lord was eager to take his frustrations out on the orcs, so at the first opportunity he and Tichondrius picked up the trail and followed the orcs to the ancient land of Kalimdor. Mannoroth became even more enraged when Tichondrius informed him that the orcs had left the continent. Mannoroth was still sore over the orcs' failure to conquer Azeroth years before, and was angrier still when Tichondrius smugly observed that the Scourge had done the job the orcs couldn't. ![]() The humans, having lost their most powerful leaders and heroes, quickly fell before the might of the Legion, now joined by Mannoroth. Once Archimonde was summoned, he decreed that the Lich King was no longer needed, and gave Tichondrius control of the Scourge.

The dreadlord continued his work, eventually overseeing the death of Uther Lightbringer, the invasion and destruction of Quel'Thalas, and the siege of Dalaran. The Darkener expressed (justified) concern that Ner'zhul had alternative plans for his new "champion", but Mephistroth pointed out that he "wouldn't dare undermine our efforts now." Tichondrius regularly discussed the Scourge's progress with his colleagues, Anetheron and Mephistroth, who remained on a Legion planet in the Nether. He took particular amusement in sending Arthas to acquire the Urn of King Terenas, a task which would involve killing Arthas's former mentor Uther the Lightbringer. The ghost of Kel'Thuzad, however, informed Arthas that Tichondrius and the other dreadlords were actually the Lich King's jailers. Because he didn't entirely trust Arthas, Tichondrius pretended to be another one of the Lich King's followers.

Tichondrius introduces himself to Arthas.Īs befitting his status as the greatest of the Nathrezim, Tichondrius was placed in charge of a number of Scourge operations. Though seemingly broken by the dreadlords, Ner'zhul sought vengeance and was able to play on the dreadlord's fears of Kil'jaeden in order trick them into allowing him to hurl Frostmourne out of the Frozen Throne. To this end, they would construct the Icecrown Citadel within Northrend. While the Lich King gathered his strength, Tichondrius and his fellow dreadlords would serve as jailors and executors meant to hasten the Lich King's task by any means necessary. The Lich King and the dreadlords who had tortured him were then sent to Azeroth in order to weaken any resistance that the Burning Legion would in face during the Third War. These items were locked in a diamond-hard block of ice to imprison Ner'zhul. The dreadlords bound his disembodied spirit to a specifically crafted set of armor and a mighty runeblade called Frostmourne. Kil'jaeden passed the orc's spirit through death and revived as a spectral entity. Eventually, Ner'zhul, his sanity cracking, would agree to serve Kil'jaeden. The breaking of Ner'zhulĪt Kil'jaeden's command a group of dreadlords consisting of Tichondrius, Mal'Ganis, Balnazzar, Detheroc, and Varimathras tortured the orc shaman Ner'zhul after he had escaped from Draenor to the Twisting Nether.

Tichondrius returns in World of Warcraft: Legion, emerging from the Twisting Nether once more to help lead the Burning Legion's third invasion of Azeroth. While he appeared often, he was never available for the user to control. He was a major character in the Warcraft III campaigns Path of the Damned, The Invasion of Kalimdor, and Eternity's End. Tichondrius later met his end in battle against the empowered Demon hunter Illidan Stormrage. Tichondrius, along with the other Dreadlords, commanded the Scourge during the invasion of Kalimdor.
