New picture[]
I updated the picture in accorance to the Naaru Article, where I also sent a new picture of A'dal. This one is easier to see his Naaru form from the front, rather than the side. --Venixer 07:47, 4 February 2007 (EST)
Big Kahoona?[]
As far as lore goes, it seems to me as if A'dal is the man (or Naaru) at the top in terms of the forces of good, much as Sargeras is towards the Burning Legion. A'dal is the ruler of the Sha'tar and seemingly the Naaru in general. As such, he also seems to be the supreme ruler of all those under the service of the Sha'tar so that would be the Aldor, the Scryers, the Shattered Sun Offensive, The Exodar Draenei and the Blood Knights (as of Patch 2.4) to name a few. He seems to make all the big decisions for the good guys and his forsight and wisdom towards situations seems beyond reproach. I get the feeling Blizzard have accidently created Sargeras' equal and his true arch-nemesis without even realising it. --Azkera 15:05, 11 March 2008
Actually, it seems that the Old Gods, or at least the three mentioned in WotA are individually more powerful than any Titan, Sargeras included. It seems that the Titans won through an advantage in numbers, not individual prowess. "It had taken the combined might of many Titans to even force them into captivity; after their triumphant return, there would be little effort needed to eradicate this single, arrogant creature and turn his warriors to their cause." (Arrogant creature meaning Sargeras) So it would seem that the Titans are both bigger and badder than Sargeras himself.
In regards to your other point, I think Malfurion and Alexstraza could both give A'dal a run for his money as "big kahuna" of the good guys. Lckyluke372 (talk) 01:04, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Name[]
Adal means noble in (some old dialect of) german, right? It certainly fits. Xavius, the Satyr Lord 10:53, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- You were thinking of something like this?--Gourra 11:14, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, something like that. Actually, I came upon it when looking at the Wikipedia article for Adolf Hitler. Seems his name means either "Noble wolf who lives in a hut" or "Noble wolf shepherd". Xavius, the Satyr Lord (talk) 08:51, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Godhood[]
Thoughts: Is A'dal a god? Especially considering his quest in Wrath, "The Boon of A'dal." ...Talk amongst yourselves. :) --JakeARoonie (talk) 06:55, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
