~ Jormag to the Pact Commander. |
Jormag, the Elder Dragon of Ice and Persuasion, is one of the main antagonists (alongside Bangar Ruinbringer and Primordus) of the story season "The Icebrood Saga" in Guild Wars 2 and the overarching antagonist of the expansion pack End of Dragons.
They are voiced by Debra Wilson.
Appearance[]
As not many seen Jormag and survived, not much is known about their appearance. Their visible body is covered in ice. Their blood is a deadly ice as well, and is able to corrupt anything it touches. Their head has several mandibles with one cracked, which has been identified to be the tooth obtained by Asgeir. Jormag is also able to possess their minions and speak through them, which they often use to communicate with the Pact Commander.
Biography[]
Jormag was born as the scion of the Elder Dragon Soo-Won. Initially mindless like the others, Jormag eventually developed their own personality and fascinations and left Soo-Won for the world, becoming hostile to their siblings and mother.
Jormag dwells in the frozen lands of Norhern Shiverpeaks. Unlike the other Elder Dragons, Jormag doesn't directly enslave, but instead offers promises of power. During the events of Guild Wars, Jormag whispered through their champion Drakkar to corrupt Svanir and his sister, Jora, two norns. However, it succeeded only in corrupting Svanir, and since then there has been a cult following Jormag and Svanir, the Sons of Svanir, who worship Jormag as the ultimate Spirit of the Wild, while killing any females as a revenge to Jora. Jormag awoke in 1165 AE, driving the Kodan and Norn south, causing massive earthquakes and creating new seas. The northern races were no match for Jormag, however, a norn hero, Asgeir Dragonrender, managed to hurt Jormag and took one of their teeth. Since then, the tooth can be found in the Norn city of Hoelbrak. It has been prophesized that when someone manages to damage the tooth, it will be time to kill Jormag. Jormag is an overarching antagonist of the Norn "Personal Story" in Guild Wars 2, and a major antagonist since the events of "Living World Season 5".
Quotes[]
“ | We fought Jormag—gladly we fought it, for norn are made for battle. But never had we fought a beast like this. It was a living blizzard. It and its minions froze us where we fought and buried our lands in snow and ice and tore apart Gunnar's Hold with a massive glacier. It took our lands. It drove us south. And despite the destruction, there are still foolish norn who hear the call of Svanir and seek the power of Jormag. In the end they are reduced to icebrood themselves, flesh wrapped in ice, fed by malevolence and hatred. | „ |
