Nozdormu the Timeless is one of the Great Dragons who fought against the demons during the War of the Ancients. Following this intervention, he retreated into seclusion, immersing himself in his duties. He emerges only infrequently, when events require his direct presence. He intervened in the defeat of Deathwing at the hands of Krasus and his allies, one of the few times he has been seen in the skies of Azeroth. Nozdormu is tasked with ensuring that the flow of time occurs normally, without interruption, and that events happen as they are fated. To accomplish this mission, Nozdormu knows much about the nature of time. He uses his abilities and powers to prevent others from discovering these same secrets. Should a sorcerer or other mortal being begin to delve too deeply into magic that alters or affects time, Nozdormu always steps in to remove the threat, one way or another. The leader of the Bronze dragonflight was gifted by the titan, Aman'Thul, with a portion of his cosmic powers and the knowledge of his own death.
He is also known as:
The Timeless
Lord of the Centuries
Master of Time
Dragon of the Ages

He is present in WotLK at Wrymrest temple. He is is allied with four other dragonflights against the insane Malygos and his blue dragonflight.

At least Blizzard didn't put him in a blood elf model too.

Nozdormu is first mentioned in classic WoW, in his faction, lead by Anachronos, known as the Brood of Nozdormu.

Nozdormu is currently under suspicion of being the secret leader of the Infinite Dragonflight, which strangely has appeared to wage war on the Bronze Dragonflight (his own brood).

This speculation has come from information gathered at the quest "Mystery of the Infinite" (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=12470)

A good little fact: Nozdormu collects little clay sculptures of all the races in WoW.

Commento di Thrakin

At least give him his own model, duh.

Commento di 195714

Maybe He doesn't like his own flight.
Nexus War 2?

And Nozdormu and clay modeling?

This is THE BIG DOG. He could erase everyone if he wanted to.

Nozdormu, The Highfather empowered Nozdormu to guard time itself and police the ever-spinning pathways of fate and destiny. The stoic, honorable Nozdormu became known as the Timeless One.

Commento di TheMaelstorm

Well, I'm quite happy that he's hinted to be the IDF leader, I had written it ages ago in my blog:P

My points were (before the hint in wotlk)
-Nozdormu is gone on a mission that noone knows about
-Infinite dragonflight do have a superior leader (they mention it)
-Infinite dragonflight have similarities with Bronze Dragonflight
-Both use sand breath (a time metaphor obviously, but still same breath)
-They have more similarities as you can learn in caverns of time
-Infinites showed up sometime after Nozdormu left

and now.. the hourglass showed nozdormu when it was supposed to reveal the leader of infinites (or i think thats what happens).

One of the new bosses for incoming expansions are defined, eh?

(---------------------->Spoilers Included for this comment<---------)
For additional information about Nozdormu being the leader of the Infinite Dragonflight,Blizzard gave us (the players) many hints as to if he is the leader or not.Such information are as followed:
1.Chromie's questline
2.In the War of the Ancients Book,He apologizes to Korialstrasz for actions he would commit against him in the future, and says that not even he can change his ultimate 'fate'.
3.Upon entering the Mount Hyjal instance, Indormi says in an emote :"Do you think the rumors about the Infinite Dragonflight are true? I've sensed it...the familiarity."

However,despite all this information..Blizzard also plays with our thought on Nozdormu's position.This is basically shown in the WoW history site during the Titan's creation of the dragonflights when it stated: "In the beginning,there were many Dragonflights..." therefore indicating that the Infinite Dragonflight might have always been here in the first place and chose to act only when Nozdormu was missing.

Furthermore,in a book found in WoW called Legacy of the Ancients which is done for a low-level quest,it is stated under Nozdormu's name that his flight are "Considered to be protectors" and that "Nozdormu will always attempt to protect the time stream and the mortal races when threatened by greater enemies".

Most information from wowwiki.

I was thinking,

Nozdormu was shown how, when and why he would die, so he wouldn't be a smart ass.

What if showing him how he would die backfired, giving him an idea: "What if I can stop my death?"

The infinite dragonflight have so far:
1: Tried to stop Thrall reforming the Horde.
This would stop the Horde existing. Ergo WoW ends after Warcraft 2.
2: Tried to stop the Horde reaching Azeroth.
The Horde never invaded Azeroth, pretty obvious result there.
3: Tried to destroy the world tree by letting Archimonde reach it.
This seems to destroy the Alliance and the Horde on account of the Buring Legion killing everything.
4: Tried to assassinate Arthas while purging Strath.
Stops the Ner'zhul fusing with Arthas, Lich King and Scourge are weakened and probably destroyed.
Would probably result in the Alliance and Horde going to war and one side wiping out the other.

So my guess is he does something drastic, resulting in the Horde and or Alliance having to kill him.
So in he makes the infinite dragon flight to stop the Horde from forming, destroying them both or making them go to war again.

Or he could have been in charge of them in the first place, before he was Aspect of Time, the titans just made him in charge so he wouldn't be evil anymore. Either way thats my 2 cents worth.

I just love Alexstrasza's dragon form! And Malygos is also really cool :D but what I dont get is that they dishonour Nozdormus and Ysera by giving them a normal dragon form! I mean for christ sake, if you obtain the Bronze Drake mount, you can say your riding Nozdormu!

Commento di 282650

I hate Blizzard. They killed off Malygos. They will possibly kill Deathwing. Now it will suck if they make us kill Nozdormu too. We are left with somnambul dragon and a badly dressed prostitute, atop of Wyrmrest temple. Darn you blizzard, darn you all.

Commento di Twinkiey

nozdormu is only allied with 2 dragonflights, he is the leader of the bronze, he os allied with ysera and alexstrasza, remember deathwing : D

Commento di Darthmrkew

I am very sad what happened to all aspects.
Nozdormu betrayed.
Neltharion betrayed.
Malygos betrayed.
Ysera is sleeping.
Alexstrasza didn't prevent what happened at wrathgate.

Commento di 336631

I for one believe that Nozdormu is behind the Infinite Dragonflight. If you think about it, it kinda does make sense. He knows how he's going to die, therefore he's trying to prevent it from happening.

1: He tried to stop the Orcs from entering Azeroth in the Black Morass. -- This would prevent the Horde from being formed.
2: He tried to keep Thrall from escaping Durnholde in Old Hillsbrad. -- Same as above.
3: He tried to stop the wisps from coming to the aid of the Night Elves in the Battle for Mount Hyjal. -- This would mean the end of the mortal races.
4: He tried stopping Arthas from going to Northrend in the Culling of Stratholme. -- This would prevent the Scourge invasions, leave Illidan at his full strength and have the Horde and Alliance focus on destroying each other instead of working together to battle greater enemies.

All of those would have had a major effect to the ones who are destined to kill him; the heroes of Azeroth. He's going to be sending the armies of the Infinite untill it becomes clear that he will have to join the war himself, finally ending up facing the heroes that ends up killing him anyway.

..All of this, is theory of course.

EDIT: Examples of what could have happened from his unsuccesful attempts.

I gotta feel bad for Norzdormu and Ysera. They're the only Aspects that don't get their own model (Besides Deathwing, but we haven't seen him in WoW yet.)
I mean, even Nefarian gets his own unique model.
They must be jealous.

Commento di Kurtosis

Not a lore expert, but here's another idea for a cause:

4. Aman'Thul granted Nozdormu two things - a portion of Aman'thul's own power, and knowledge of Nozdormu's own death. An initially stoic Nozdormu may have accepted that, but over the aons his power over the flow of time may have tempted and corrupted him into trying to alter the flow of time to avoid his own death and make himself immortal.

The problem is, success would carry with it the curse that he no longer knows his own death, making it much more difficult to predict and avoid, but his own death may still be out in the future waiting to claim him. Hence he would need to not only find ways to predict and avoid that, but also to resurrect himself if that fails.

Hence the creation of the Infinite Dragonflight - previous Bronze dragons loyal to him and willing and able reverse and reroute the flow of time to resurrect Nozdormu in the event of his death. This would also require eliminating any of the Bronze Dragonflight - the only other time-altering-capable race - who choose not to join the Infinite Dragonflight, who might oppose and block the Infinite's efforts to use time to resurrect Nozdormu. Which is where we seem to find the situation now in WotLK.

Of course, the cost of such tampering would inevitably include as unintended consequences the creation of big problems for the races of Azeroth - anything from the merging of the Emerald Dream with reality to the resurrection of Archimonde and other past baddies. It could also have some beneficial effect, such as the reversion of Deathwing to the good Neltharion and enlistment of his Twighlight Dragonflight in the battle against the Infinites. All sorts of possibilities. So the races of Azeroth must once again band together to not only help the Bronze Dragonflight defeat the Inifinite and Nozdormu, but also to deal with the all the problems caused by Nozdormu and the Infinites' time tampering.

If Bliz were to go this route, it would open the door for all sorts of new raids and abilities that use time as a key mechanic. Prince of Persia, Sands of Time, and many other games have done this to very creative effect, and it would be really cool to see Bliz's (almost undoubtedly amazing) implementation of it.

Imagine the next hero class being of the Bronze Dragon race. Flight From = Bronze Dragon, caster form = high-elf, can instantly shift like Druids. Primary abilities focus on altering time - slowing, stopping, reversing, fast-forwarding, both for allies and enemies, local (a spot on the ground) and universal (everyone in 50yds). This could be used raids in order to redo sections where a mistake was made, or the mt died, or something even more complex (since the Infinites we're raiding can also use time to do the same things). It could be a healing-only class but with the powerful time-flow altering ability, and that would pretty much solve any healer shortage the way DKs solved tank shortages.

he knows how he's gona die meaning he cant stop it, becouse if he stops it he wouldnt find out that hes gona die then creating a paradox

Commento di Cyberknyght

I doubt that the matter is as simple as Nozdormu being corrupted..at least, I hope that Blizzard wouldn't use that as justification for the hundredth time in this lore. The one point I have to disprove it is circumstantial at best, and speculation at worst; I am surprised nobody has commented this:

Chromie says that immortal creatures have been barred entry to the Bronze Dragonshrine due to the temporal storms, yet Nozdormu appears there. Now, it could be that he is the one causing the anomaly, BUT its just as likely that he, for some reason, is no longer Lord of Time.

why does it seem every aspect has their own mysterious agenda

He needs a special model, maybe one that looks similar to his picture on Wowwiki?
