Azerite. I'm dying to know how he reacts to that in his drink. - Azalora

There was a time back in the era of the Fourth War where Duraxxor was known as the Faceless under an organization that he followed alongside Malakortana and later when Myotis was once a group name. This was some time after his second death. He came into contact with the very substance you speak of. Azerite. In all its brilliance, never would he had thought to have come in contact with crystallized blood of the very planet. This world was far more living than it was a husk of elements and magical leylines.

And Duraxxor, being as he is particularly drawn to blood would partake in an experiment. He obtained the liquified version of the element. Various tests showed that it wasn't poisonous at first glance. In fact, what was bizarre was how this essence brought about some of the greater things in people, for better or worse. There was a page in a journal that the Lord had recorded in this experiment as follows.

" When I drank of her blood, I didn't know what I was expecting. The mixture seemed to possess the distinct taste of pomegranate for me. Which was practically impossible as I couldn't even remember what sort of thing it tasted like. And then, it hit me. I felt an energy sizzle through my veins as it worked its through my absorption. It was spectacular. My new -arm- finally felt as though it were truly a part of my body. And my mind began to race with ideas. Ideas that didn't follow a path of domination. No. Ideas that would possess freedom... " - Azerite entry 1

But his deeds wouldn't end there as he would later experiment with Azerite in a similar manner, but he would drink of it as a concentrate rather than a mixture of sanguine fluid.

" The lifeblood of Azeroth has many, potential uses but mine seems more aligned with using it more like a catalyst. I could still feel the effects from before. A high that reinforced my mind. It was like a drug. I felt much like the Wretched coming off of it before. And yet, I didn't degrade. So, I am going to try a concentrate of it. "

" At first, it was similar to the previous encounter. But like a blazing campfire, my stomach was lit aflame with a billowing warmth. It radiated all throughout my body, my veins appeared to have been fissures through my skin. I thought in a brief panic, I thought I had ingested too much. That was, until the golden hues with cyan undertones suddenly shifted, turning a sanguine brilliance in the palm of my hands. I felt... joy. My imagination running wild as the smile on my face solidified. I was in high spirits and my mind was thinking ahead of itself at a speed I wasn't used to. I felt as though I could tear down the walls of Orgrimmar with my strength. "

" Deep inside the core of my being, I felt a shift like no other. As if my body was merely an extension of what and who I was. Like it was a separate entity from the soul of my being. And something took shape in that small pocket. A core. An engine. Ever since, my existence has been altered, and my evolution progressed in a way that I didn't even think possible. It was glorious. " - Azerite Entry 23

And that was the last time Duraxxor had come in contact with Azerite in such a way. It brought this amazing feeling within him and even altered his history forever. If it wasn't for Azerite, he may have never left stagnation or even followed the path he went. And even now, Azerite seems to be peeking back into his life through a certain dragoness that fatefully met him in Silithus one day.

[[ Tagging @azalora-the-azerite-dragoness and @sanguinesorceress for continuity. I would also like to tag @miah-ambershade @gravekeeper-anna and if I missed anyone that is active, I apologize, for the connections with those organizations mentioned. ]]

Finished this set for a commission! It’s based on azerite from world of warcraft and is also one of my favorite color combinations!

Azerite Fields

   Hello everyone! Today we are going to take a look (and say goodbye ) to the strange substance I have mentioned in my Ancient Mana upload a few weeks back. 

   For those who aren't familiar, Azerite is the crystallized blood of Azeroth. It can be used for variety of purposes, from powering up powerful machines and channeling mighty magics to creating devastating explosives.

  The adventurers have been forced to gather countless metric tons of this substance over the past couple of years and I for one can say that despite it's undeniable beauty, it won't be missed. What do you say my dear friend? Anima? No, it'll certainly be something completely different, right?

  I hope that you like the final outcome, despite the tarnished reputation of this beautiful substance. Is there any fantasy/sci fi mineral or substance you would like to see painted in similar fashion? Share!
