The '''Elemental Lords''' were the most trusted and powerful lieutenants in the elemental armies of the [[Old Gods]]. Their purpose was to keep the world of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]] in a perpetual state of chaos. When the [[titan]]s defeated the Old Gods, the Elemental Lords, and all [[elemental]]s with them, were banished to a planar prison of their own, now known as the [[Elemental Plane]].<ref name="S&L 99">{{ref rpg | last = Campbell | first = Tim | coauthors = Bob Fitch, Bruce Graw, Luke Johnson, Seth Johnson | editor = [[Ellen P.

The four lieutenants, seemingly no longer under the Old Gods' control, are finding new ways to wage war against each other, and it's possible that one or more of their factions are working for the good of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. Though they fight each other, they still maintain an [[Abyssal High Council]].

Elemental Lords have the power to take control over specific elementals of their own type, but only when those elementals are within the area of its divine presence. This ability does not work on primal or elder elementals. All smaller elementals will obey their Lord unquestioningly. Larger ones usually do also, but should they wish to resist the Lieutenant's commands, they may attempt to do so, but it is unlikely for that to happen. The Elemental Lord can also break another being's control of a summoned or enchanted elemental; those who have control over the elemental will have a difficult time maintaining control. Should the controller maintain command of the elemental, the Elemental Lord may not make another attempt to control or command that elemental for one full day.<ref name="S&L 99"/>

Whenever a spell is cast of the same magic type within the area of the Lord's presence, it becomes instantly aware, and can take control of the magic as he wishes. The spell can be countered, transfered to another target or area, or reflected back at the caster. This ability also functions against elemental spell-like abilities employed by other creatures, elementals or otherwise, with the sole exception of those used by creatures more powerful than the Elemental Lord. In much the same vein, the Elemental Lords can exert their control over magical items which employ spell or spell-like abilities, with the sole exception of those imbued within major artifacts.<ref name="S&L 99"/>

Ragnaros the Firelord currently inhabits Azeroth. He was summoned to the [[Redridge Mountains]] by the worshipful [[Dark Iron dwarves]]. It was their purpose to use him for domination of the other dwarf clans. Ironically however, he enslaved ''their'' society for his own purposes. In [[Blackrock Mountain]], Ragnaros and his fire elemental armies are locked in a war with [[Nefarian]] for control. While Ragnaros seeks to make his return to the Elemental Plane, he will destroy Azeroth if he wins at Blackrock.<ref name="S&L 99"/>
 
   
  +
== Notes ==
−
At war with Ragnaros is Neptulon, the most powerful of the Elemental Lords. Therefore, it is not surprising that many of Neptulon's servants are in Azeroth, working against the other 3 Lords. Neptulon, widely acknowledged to be the most evil of the Elemental Lords, seems to be utilizing the mortal races to weaken the forces of the other three Elemental Lords without risking his own. His agent, [[Duke Hydraxis]], leader of the [[Hydraxian Waterlords]], seeks to bring others to his side. He will at some point send those into the [[Molten Core]] to fight against the Firelords. Another agent, [[Tsunaman]] at [[Sun Rock Retreat]], also seeks to destroy Ragnaros's elementals in the [[Charred Vale]].

Hop on. Stormbeak flies to the starboard rotor and hovers just above it at various heights, as a not-so-implicit threat to Mor'norokk:

The other two Lords have not attempted to exert their influence on Azeroth to such an extent. Al'Akir holds domain over the [[air elemental]]s, while Therazane has control over the [[earth elemental]]s. It is possible that Therazane is the [[Earthmother]] that the [[tauren]] worship. While it is likely that the Earthmother is a goddess similar to [[Elune]] that arose after the Titans shaped Azeroth, Therazane is well known as the most benevolent of the Elemental Lords (all things being relative of course), unlike the chaotic Ragnaros and Al'Akir, or the evil Neptulon.

The elemental lords being inherently evil is a fairly common misconception that many hold. Elemental lords naturally progress towards disorder, following the real life laws of spontaneity that say nothing, be it energy matter or otherwise, moves towards what humans (or in Warcraft's case, any sentient being) would call "ordered" naturally. Elementals, being the most basic form of matter (elements, as defined in ancient Greece, combinations of storm, earth, fire, and the like) move very readily toward this state of chaos if left on their own. This quick descent into the warlike factions that make up the elemental planes, and the alignment with the old gods are two major causes for the elemental powers to be viewed as "evil".

−
The evil of the elementals however are far from absolute. In fact, it would seem that if cultured right, the elementals give great power and healing to those devoted and disciplined enough. In the story "Unbroken", the elements that contacted Nobundo state that the elements naturally war with each other, and that an arbiter, or second party is needed to bring harmony to the elements. They respond very readily to Nobundo's influence upon his arrival at the elemental plateaus (and vice a versa.) It stands to reason that if order can be brought so readily, then chaos is an even quicker path. The elements and their interactions with the Old Gods can be very easily explained by a rapid response to any outsider willing to deal with the problems between the elements.

The fact that the elements are not inherently evil is important. It is what allows for Shaman to commune with the elements and manage to retain a pure identity, it is what makes Therezane a very real possibility for the "Earth Mother", and it is what explains all of the apparent bipolarism of the various elemental lords.

It should be noted that most information seems to suggest that the elemental spirits that bestow powers to the shaman are separate enties from the elemental lords. The spirits have never taken names, simply being refered to as the spirit of their respected elements. More over, the spirit of earth has been described as having male characteristics, where as Therazane is seemingly female(though being elementals, they likely lack true gender).

{{elinks-quest|26254}}

−
The spirits are discribed as "cosmic partners", stretching the universe and existing on all worlds where nature still exist. The elemental lords, however, are bound to definate, physical forms. While the spirits have their own personas, they are far more abstract than the elemental lords are. While a connection between the spirits and the lords surely exists, exactly what that connect is has yet to be established.

Notes

Hop on. Stormbeak flies to the starboard rotor and hovers just above it at various heights, as a not-so-implicit threat to Mor'norokk:

Stormcaller Mylra says: All right, sunshine. Time to spill your guts before I spill 'em for ya!
Mor'norokk the Hateful yells: Wait! You can't do this! You people must have a code of honor or something!
Up.
Stormcaller Mylra says: I'm a daughter of the Wildhammer Clan and a shaman of the Earthen Ring. My code compels me to honor my ancestors and the elements.

Stormcaller Mylra says: Doesn't say a damn thing about dog-ugly ogres.

Mor'norokk the Hateful yells: Stop it, you tiny, angry woman! I'll tell you everything! What do you want to know?
Down.
Stormcaller Mylra says: You can start by telling us where the World Pillar fragment is. My gryphon's starting to look a bit[1] tired from hauling you around.
Mor'norokk the Hateful yells: It was delivered to the forgemaster at Deathwing's Fall. I swear... that's all I know!
Mor'norokk the Hateful yells: Happy now? Pull me up, you vicious little dwarf!
Stormcaller Mylra says: You were never in any danger, sweetheart. My friends down below would've caught you. You're worth far too much to us alive!
Five Wind Servants appear between Mor'norokk and the whirling blades.
Mor'norokk the Hateful yells: What? What have you done? No! Do you have any idea what the Twilight Council will do to me when they find out I've talked? I'd sooner die!
Mor'norokk Chain Lightnings the wind servants and cuts the chain, killing himself in the rotors.
Stormcaller Mylra says: Interesting. I'd never heard of the Twilight Council before now.
Stormbeak flies back to the poopdeck.
