Description Neltharion. The Earth-Warder. Chosen by Khaz'goroth to be the Dragon Aspect of Earth. A once noble being.

Until the Old Gods drove him to insanity.

Now, with his power increased by tenfold, his body literally tearing itself apart, and his plans to destroy all mortals has given him a new name: Deathwing, the Aspect of Death. He created a powerful relic called the Demon Soul which allowed him to control the other dragon aspects at his command. The Aspect of Life, Alexstrasza bore witness to the destruction of her children. Deathwing raged war with the Blue Dragonflight and nearly brought them to extinction.
But with a battle between the other aspects, Deathwing became fatally wounded and fled into the cavernous deeps of Deepholm, the elemental plane of earth. It was there where his wounds healed. Adamantite armor was attached to his body to prevent himself from coming apart.

But now...

Deathwing has erupted from Deepholm, tearing through the Maelstrom and causing the great upheaval known as the Shattering. Massive waves engulfed shores and flooded many areas, earthquakes wreaked havoc across the world, and volcanoes consumed forests with lava. All of this was only a stepping stone to his ultimate goal... to reshape the world into his perfect image.

The hour of twilight has fallen.

All this problem because of Demon Soul

And all while he rests in the pit where he skid to a halt on the floors of the cavernous realm of Deepholm, the Cult of Twilight swings its hammers ceaselessly, pounding in the stakes that hold the armor to the hide of the Aspect of Death. The plates are pressed glowing red-hot to his scales, and he screams in pain, thrashing and flailing, every movement swaying and heaving the earth above. Tidal waves obliterate shorelines with every beat of his ragged wings. His return to Azeroth is like that of a supervolcanic eruption, belching clouds of black smoke and miasma from the elemental plane and throwing the swirling Maelstrom into an even greater state of chaos, if that were even possible. His mere passing heralds ultimate destruction, everything he touches forever scarred.

Only one word to describe this... EPIC! I really do feel this describes Neltharion - A aspect meaning to do good, but fell to corruption. Similar to Arthas - The Lich King (My FAVORITE lore character btw). All in all, I like it. Good job!
