Rhonin is a powerful human mage of the Kirin Tor. He was instrumental in breaking the power of the Orcs at the end of the Second War by freeing the Dragonqueen Alexstrasza from her imprisonment by the Orc Warlock Nekros Skullcrusher, who used the Demon Soul to keep her prisoner. In the fictional Warcraft Universe, the Kirin Tor are the ruling body of the magocratic nation of Dalaran, based in the Violet Citadel. ... ...
He was assisted in this mission by the High Elven ranger Vereesa, the warrior Dwarf Falstad, and the dragon-mage Krasus, who was the instigator of this mission. He was also assisted (at first) by the evil dragon Deathwing, but Deathwing's true purpose was to steal some of Alexstrasza's eggs to replenish his own decimated dragonflight. With a stone created from one of Deathwing's scales, Rhonin was able to destroy the Demon Soul and release Alexstrasza. In the game Warcraft, Neltharion the Earth Warder was one of the Dragon Aspects created to defend Kalimdor. ...
During this mission, Rhonin and Vereesa fell in love, and were later married. While they were preparing for the birth of their twin offspring, Rhonin was once again summoned by Krasus for help. Apparently, the dragon-mage had discovered a rift in time, which swallowed both of them, along with the Orc veteran Broxigar. The three were sent 10,000 years back in time to the first invasion of the Burning Legion. The Burning Legion is the huge demonic army created by the titan Sargeras in the fictional Warcraft universe. ...
He was instrumental in breaking the power of the orcs at the end of the Second War by freeing the Dragonqueen Alexstrasza from her imprisonment by Nekros Skullcrusher, a former orc warlock of the Dragonmaw Clan who used the Demon Soul to keep her prisoner.
Rhonin was once a promising mage of the Kirin Tor until a disastrous mission involving the reckless use of magic cost the lives of all his comrades - whilst Rhonin was casting a spell, others in his group got in the path of his attack.
As a reward for Rhonin's courage, Nozdormu allowed Rhonin to return to Vereesa at the moment she went into labor to ensure he would not miss a moment of the twins' lives.
