The War Within Alpha - Isle of Dorn Main Story Quest Preview
Are we approaching a Solo Raid WoW Experience?

I was looking at the new boss models, and I was wondering if anyone else thought the frost giant model looked a bit like an angsty/emo throim + goatee:

Well that seems pretty true but who is that guy anyhow? The boss that comes after 12/12 heroic?

Of course he looks like him, he seems to be titan-related.

How is he emo? Seems more like a giant with wounds that been hurt in battle rather then cutting himself.

Yes, everything that is cool is emo in the nerd's language. Oh how I HATE that logic. Stop bashing everything that is mysterious, dark or beautiful by calling it emo.

hair covering your face is emo

Hi there OP I had to log in to help you out with this model. I'm not lore expert but this model is the same model as those old slave dudes in the caves in Storm Peaks. One of the quest line and daily quests you can do for those super large blue girls. And there in lies the reason he is depressed. Because him and all his friends are slaves to this clan of huge blue females.

Actually no, not really, those guys are Vrykul, that guy is a titan-esque being. Originally Posted by SkyBlueAri

Ah, so being tormented beyond imagination, your heart cut out, your blood sucked constantly to do malicious experiments and imprisoned with no hope is being Emo now?

Emo? No. Emotional? Yes, his wife had been murdered. Poor Thorim.

"I wish my grass was emo so it would cut itself"
With that obligatory joke out of the way, not sure I would really call that model emo.
Because he has cuts that weren't self-inflicted?
Because he has long hair?
Because he's all grim and pissed looking?
I'm perfectly fine with making fun of the "ZOMG you just don't understand how much pain I'm in living in the suburbs! (//o)" type of attention-whores by rightfully calling them emo, but not seeing it with that model.

If it wasn't for sig limitations, I'd totally keep that for posterity. Still, +1 internets to you. Originally Posted by fizzbob

I'm amazed of the detail he has. I mean those wounds actually have depth.

He is supposed to be sort of the Pandaria version of Thorim. The difference is that while Thorim existed with many other keepers at Ulduar, due to the large threat posed by Yogg-Saron should he have escaped Ulduar, it seems Ra-Den was left to guard the Engine of Nalak'sha all by himself.
This became a problem when the Mogu, former servants of the Titans that were transformed by the curse of flesh, turned twisted over time and one of them, Lei Shen, entered the vaults and did battle with Ra-Den, somehow winning and ripping out the titan keeper's heart, which is what has given the Thunder King his power.
Since then, he was taken to Thunder Isle and locked inside the Thunder King's fortress, his "flesh" taken and used in experiments in fleshshaping. Likely when the Thunder King was killed during the rebellion, the mogu abandoned the island and Ra-Den was kept locked deep and alone below the fortress, possibly going mad.
