I went purely with "has power & has a predisposition for arrogance". She is pretty much the among the highest in nightborne culture next to Thalyssra. Same for Shandris, she among the highest Generals of the nelfs. Another obvious candiate would be another of the Windrunner Sisters, though Vereesa is to soft, which leaves only Alleria, but she is already headed for a semi-villain role with the whole void stuff; or at least a "good" void user in a shadow and light expansion that has us fight both while also allying with both.
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
im tired of good guys gone bad villains and after we beat the shit out of them, theyre like:
and because of some 5D chess convoluted story line that makes no sense, were supposed to forgive them.
i just want clear cut baddies to KILL.
yrel is another crazy bitch that we at some point gonna not kill.
we wont kill zovaal either, we gonna put him in naughty jail next to sargeras.

Why do we need a "bad bitch"? Isn't a 17 years enough for the edgelord waifus?
Where do you guys get this wack retcon from? Ner'zhul betrayed KJ and the Legion, never was there a mention of the Jailer trying to order the Lich King into doing anything. There's even a PoV book of Arthas during it all which just debunks this idea.
Obviously the jailer was involved with the legion getting ahold of the helm and frostmourne, but he had no direct connection involved during Ner'zhul's time as the Lich King. As far as we even know with the Legion, they don't even know the stuff came from the Jailer as in Legion, frostmourne is mentioned to be made by the nethrezim. Which is info they have from the Legion.
I feel like Bellular is to blame for this stupid head cannon :/
Easily considering she's spent the past ten years bowing and serving. Just because she was too stupid to realize his plans would affect her, too, before he spelled it out for her doesn't make her strong and independent.
At no point in her existence as a character has she existed independently. Everything she is exists as a reaction to someone else. Either Arthas, Anduin, or Zovaal. She's like a walking failed Bechdel test. How often has she gone out of her way to talk about Arthas, or the Jailor (the latter in relatively effusive tones because, again, somehow the master manipulator is also simultaneously the village idiot), with little to no provocation? If she were more dependent she'd be Vereesa.
As for who the next "bad bitch" character should be, here's a thought: don't lazily recycle 1990s Dark Age cliches, especially not the lowest-common-denominator "bad girl" pouting and posing her way through 30 pages with some shitty name like Requiem or Bloodchylde. Create an interesting, compelling, morally-ambiguous or openly-evil antagonist with understandable motives, a logical thought process one can follow from A to Z without having to pretzel their brain or compartmentalize everything to reconcile lurching attempts at recharacterization, and a strong onscreen presence, then make that antagonist female.
Be seeing you guys on Bloodsail Buccaneers NA!
I picture her in a pant suit with purple hair (in game) informing the world of Azeroth that they just got an insane pay raise and are using their new found power and wealth to strangle the world as the villian but because they also give some money to the children and fly in rocket ships to space people will think that they are actually a good person. This slowly corrupts and drains the soul of the planet but no one can or do anything about it because it is a hot button topic and comon, the children. The way we actually defeat this villain isn't with weapons or fights. Its to out raise them so that someone else can win the popularity contest. Surprisingly enough, exactly what every player needs to donate is one WoWToken a month to stem the tied of the corruption. Players that don't meet this goal actually lose power and their gear gets weaker. Players that meet it remain normal but are shamed for just being normal. Players that far exceed it (say 3 or 4 WoWTokens) actually gain power and get access to a new talent tree called "Will of the Lobbyist" that gives you sway over the population. So the more gold you pump into it the more points you get to spend in it. If you fail to reach your goals you lose points on a lock out to lock out basis.
Can you stop the evil in game corporate villain that started off meaning well but eventually turned to evil because money just does that to people? Well you can help! All you have to do is feed the evil out of game corporation villian money by buying a shit ton of gold from the store! Congratulations gamers! You now can fight capitalism by supplying it!
Jaina probably.
she did alot of bitchy stuff already.
Including her voicelines from wc3
She's all voided up and is dealing with the trauma of spending a thousand years being hunted on a hell planet. Also we already saw an alternate timeline where she was both crazy and evil.
She isn't crazy and evil now but she has all the makings of somebody that the narrative could make crazy and evil.
