You can't attack this NPC if you're a horde.

Kommentar von 9646

You can't kill kids in World of Warcraft, thus even the "king" is immune to death.

Kommentar von mggamer

If you look carefully you will see that his pvp isn't enabled. This is why you can't attack him.

Kommentar von 87333

Kommentar von 90086

Kommentar von 108803

the king isnt on alcaz island anymore they removed him i went there and saw nothing

Kommentar von Edrila

This guy is the reason the horde hate us. We get a freaking child as our leader, and the horde have this awesome warchief and leader of races Thrall. Someone should assassinate this kid so we can have a real leader.

Kommentar von 45972

This kid isn't actually the stormwind faction leader. if you look around him you should see Highlord Bolvar Fordragon (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=1748) who is given 'leader' staus. Stormwind is led by him. Not by anduin.

Kommentar von evankimori

This NPC has been referenced in Dark Legacy Comics @ http://darklegacycomics.com/

Comic # 131 - Fugitive.

Kommentar von 91315

The ID of Varian Wrynn is 11699

Kommentar von 93332

There's quite a lot of lore in the game surrounding his capture.

The missing diplomat quest chain is the first hint.
Another chain which seems to follows on from this chain in terms of lore begins in dustwallow with a disturbing development, leading on to Jaina Must Know and finishing with Return to Jaina.

The first chain lets us know that some important diplomat has been kidnapped, and that the defias are involved. It turns out the king is missing. The next chain shows us that the defias have been in dustwallow, and have captured an important prisoner. It also tells us that person is captured on Alcaz island.

We also find out that someone high up in the ranks in stormwind is working against the alliance. This is of course talking about Lady Katrana Prestor, who happens to be onyxia in disguise. There maybe more lore relating to this that I have not yet come across, but it at least hopefully explains why the king is in a cage on alcaz island :)

EDIT: This post was initially in response to a comment which has since been removed. You are quite correct Shelireih, however in it's initial context this post made sense. If my hazy memory serves me right, I believe there was no page for Varian at the time, so a lot of discussion on him was on his son's page instead.

Kommentar von Lacrox

Spoilers:

According to the current in-game quests and the Warcraft comic series, Varian Wrynn, escapes from the Defias during transport from Alcaz Island. He winds up on the shore of Durotar in an amnesiac state and is captured and entered into the Dire Maul gladiator tournament. Not knowing his own name, he is given the title Lo'Gosh (a legendary white wolf). After winning the tournament and a number of other adventures he rediscovers his identity and is attempting to return to Stormwind to reclaim his title and be reunited with his son.

Currently the rumor is that the Missing Diplomat quest line will be completed when the comic series reaches it's conclusion.

Kommentar von masterbro

OMG i just found where he is on alcaz island hs under a basement then u go under water and come back up and tehre he is it is amazing that he is so hiden! its awsome

Kommentar von 69138

I can't believe a 6 year old kid is taller than my Gnome... That's just not right.

Kommentar von Sly99

Varian Wyrnn is no longer in Alcaz Island, he was removed in patch 1.9 and replaced by an elite naga on patch 1.10, do not wast your time trying to find him because he will not be there.

He is still in the MPQ files though so he still may be added in the future as the same model.

There are multiple reasons why he may not show up here.

Kommentar von 142001

ok iv put a pic of his dad (the real king) in the screenshots :P this is patch 2.4.2

Kommentar von 97910

I just went there today and he was not there.
there was an elite naga though.

Kommentar von 113424

King Varian Wrynn is currently situated in Northrend leading the Valiance Expedition and fighting against the Scourge.

Kommentar von 93779

I know that Prestor is really Onyxia, but isn't it true that Anduin is actually a demon? Or at the very least possesed by one? I know I've seen this somewhere but I can't find anything about it on Wowhead or Wowwiki. Can anyone confirm?

Kommentar von 169612

patch 2.4.3 , searched all Alcaz island , couldn't find King Varian Wrynn

Kommentar von 201995

i found the real king and took a screen shot for you. :)

Kommentar von 203295

if you a gm you can kill him with the command .kill

Kommentar von 169612

Still cannot find him

Kommentar von 99801

in WOTLK the real king of SW is back

Kommentar von ologx28

Actually in the next expanion "Wrath of the Lich King" the real king of Stormwind is back..next to his son

Kommentar von Chaserbl

and the kings is here
added in last patch on wotlk :)

Kommentar von 169612

He is also dual-wielding http://www.wowhead.com/?item=18348

Kommentar von backfire

As of 2 minutes ago on the current patch, the King is not on Alcaz Island and Tidelord Rrurgaz (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=16072)has taken his place. Hope that clears up any confusion.

Kommentar von 224480

hes in the cage

Kommentar von 178151

He also has a twin http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22365#comments

Kommentar von Factsfountain

How exactly did Wowhead manage to discern that anduin has 10 copper?

Kommentar von okion12

he looks retarded

Kommentar von Harson

Anduin no longer says the quote about if you have seen his father when you click on him.

Kommentar von 288482

"In remembrance of the supreme allied commander, Anduin Lothar: A man who would sacrifice everything in defense of his king, his people, his home...

Let our enemies know our names. Let our allies honor our passing. We are the Sons of Lothar."

- General Turalyon

This is what he wrote on the Monument of Remembrance, which is in Honor Hold.

Other Sons of Lothar (with the title) include:

Force Commander Danath Trollbance and Khadgar

Anduin Wrynn was named after Anduin Lothar

I think there should be some kind of quest chain explaining who Anduin Lothar was and why his friends consider themselves Sons of Lothar. The Horde have the epic quest chain about Thrall and the Mag'har, why can't we Alliance get one about who Lothar was?

Kommentar von 374186

Now he has a voice, lol..

Kommentar von corilan75

I find it annoying that the voice-over when you create a new human character still says the humans are led by the child-king Anduin Wrynn. With his father back in town, I think Blizz should update the introductory human lead-in.

Kommentar von 258919

He has two comments when you click on him, one of which is.

"Greetings, citizen."

This just ticks me off. He acts like I'm a lowly "citizen". He's a freaking level 5. If it weren't for the green name, the guards, and his daddy standing right next to him, I would chop his arms off.

Kommentar von julienpdx

his name is a Tolkienism---the river "Anduin" is where the Ring of Power was lost before it came to the Creature Gollum.

Kommentar von thetwink13

why cant we kill this guy? we cant splatter a helpless child? i mean at least undead, who as said in wows lore have no moral standings and just want to rule azeroth, should be able to kill him? baby eating ftw

Kommentar von 428165

or "person of low birth who happens to be skilled at slaying dragons"

This just made my day. =)

Kommentar von Bareno

In 3.3.3, he magicly ages by about 3-5 years!

Picture.

Kommentar von 499095

I hope we can kill him now that hes an adult

Kommentar von 124863

why is everyone so keen on killing him? what harm has he ever done apart from being the boy that never aged?

Kommentar von 569196

Well, I have heard that Anduin is going to be the Stormwind king in Cataclysm, is it true?

Kommentar von 582467

What I want to know is, how does Wowhead know how much money he drops if it's impossible to kill him?

Kommentar von 476703

The new model's face looks creepy

Kommentar von 614369

This kid's clothes look pretty mundane for a prince. Come on, Blizzard, give him some real royal clothes! It's disappointing that the prince of the most powerful human kingdom looks like every other little kid in the world.

Kommentar von 476703

3.3.5 appears to be going live today. As soon as the game's up I'll see if anduin's got a new model and submit a screen shot if so.

EDIT: Damn, still no new model. WHY, BLIZZ?

Kommentar von Xcythe

"Wealth: 10 copper"

Looks like he has a cheapskate for a father.

Kommentar von 353694

Anduin's father vs dranosh's father. hmm intressting question...

Kommentar von 305281

New model still looks kinda weak. Seeing as he's Varian's son, you'd think he would be decked out in crazy armor and being trained by his father in the arts of ass kicking. If I remember correctly, Varian would have started training as a Warrior at about 13-15 years old. But hey, at least his age is updated, the kid finally hit puberty.

Kommentar von PotatoKing

*above person gets cleaved*

Kommentar von 421845

If you've read The Shattering: Preclude to Cataclysm it states two things:

1. Jaina notes his body will be more like his mothers, who was kinda willowy, rather than his burly father.

2. Also, the bodyguard assigned to him by Magni also notices Anduin does not have an affinity to weapons, and pretty much assigns him to Rohan in order to train him as a priest. Although what happens after word really sets his instruction behind a bit.

Fixed a small, but very important typo.

Kommentar von 361391

Ladies and Gentlemen of vanilla wow, we now have undeniable proof that your characters are slowly becoming old men and women…

Kommentar von 725162

Kid only has 102 HP. He needs to start eating his Wheaties.

Kommentar von Lagun

Finally got a new older model during Cataclysm.

"At least I have reached puberty ! Thank you, Deathwing !"

Kommentar von brusko

He's only level 5 but he gets a flying mount?

Kommentar von 460651

Funny little bit of pointless knowledge, if you talk to Anduin after you're finished with the Twilight Highlands pre-req quest chain he'll still have the option to have him follow you around. Kinda funny to have a pet Prince following you around town.

He'll stop following you if you try to leave Stormwind though, which is a bit of a bummer.

Kommentar von 763639

As of cataclysm, the best NPC to escort. He has a horse, a gryphon, and an unbreakable will to follow you anywhere (even underwater on his horse).

Kommentar von LeviGratton

Did his quest on my Paladin and he said "You're a paladin? Highlord Fordragon was, as well. He taught me a great deal. I... I still miss him."

Wonder what he says for the other classes. I assume Warrior will relate to his father, and Mage to Jaina.

*Edit*

<Name>, I remember when you first came to see my father after the battle for Ebon Hold. I'm glad you're still with us.

I've always wondered what it would be like to be a druid. Where do your clothes go when you change into a bear?

So you're a hunter? My father has taught me to be pretty handy with a bow, myself.

You're a mage, like Jaina Proudmoore? How long have you studied the arcane? It seems so difficult to master.

You're a paladin? Highlord Fordragon was, as well. He taught me a great deal. I... I still miss him.

I'm training to be a priest, myself. One day I hope can command as much power as you.

This is great, I never get to talk to Stormwind's rogues. They're always so quiet and secretive...

What's it like to be a shaman? I met Thrall once. My father doesn't trust him but he seemed very wise.

Being a powerful warlock must be hard. Do you ever worry you'll lose control of one of your demons?

You're one of the fiercest-looking warriors I've ever seen, <Name>!

I think Paladins have the best line.

Kommentar von Cyberium

Anduin is a fabulous child. He is wise beyond his age and a very capable diplomat. In novels and comics he showed his ability to handle political anxiety really well. He was perceptive about Onyxia's agenda and would constantly remind his father of staying on the right path. When King Wrynn met with Thrall for the first time Anduin was the first o put down his weapon (Thrall: "Looks like we have a diplomat amongst us."). Garrosh argued about the talk about trades, Anduin said, "Why waste fine warriors when a few words could yield you more profit?"

Anduin has great relationship with Magni, Jaina, and being one of the very few people who could control his father's temper. He knows other people would judge him by his age and appearances so he used that to his advantage (like with Moira). He made friend with Baine Bloodhoof, supported Baine in his campaign of retaking Thunderbluff. When players approach him he shows admiration without prejudice.

In short, no one in the known WoW verse have active dislike towards Anduin, and he's loved by many. He's versed with political tricks as well as a compassionate heart. With holy light's protection and some grow up he'd no doubt be a greater king than his father, and most certainly better than Garrosh.

Kommentar von 811040

The little man is quite the diplomat, for those of you who read 'The Shattering". Also that he is a great holy priest in the making.

Kommentar von Artora

He is featured in a Dark Legacy Comic, he gets insulted, sort of.

Link to the comic: http://www.darklegacycomics.com/281.html

Kommentar von splunk

It seems you can still ask him to follow you, even after you've done the quests involving him with Samuelson. I equip my Alliance Balloon and promise to give it to him IF he follows me.

Kommentar von 956081

I know the kid would rather be a priest instead of warrior. But I can't help shake the feeling that this Prince is going to be the new Turalyon(started off as a priest before going paladin) some day.

Kommentar von 961304

Fruit loop.

Kommentar von 984346

to Shelireih on 2010/02/01 (Patch 3.3.0)
"His" capture? Anduin was not captured, Varian was.

Anduin was actually kinda of captured by moira bronzebeard
when magni tried too heal the elements (prelude to cataclysm) he "returned home" crystallized after drinking a potion Anduin was in ironforge that time and he stayed after but moira came back with her son of thausarion some dark iron dwarf leader i dont know much about but he took over control of ironforge and issolated it no-one in no-one out all kinds of transport and messages did get blocked and anduin was still in ironforge so he was kinda captured i guess (luckly for him he did get a heartstone from Jaina

Kommentar von Sooba

I hated him. Until I started reading WoW novels.
Now I think he's great.

Kommentar von 1006401

Just read The shattering by Chiristie Golden and you can have all the lore on Anduin you could ever need

Kommentar von 770339

They grow up so fast!

Kommentar von 1013439

I think Blizzard should need to work on the model on teenager characters as Prince Wyrnn's model is scarier than Deathwing himself.

Kommentar von 601669

The prince is no longer in the keep. Where did he go Theramore?

Kommentar von exou

So uhh, patch 5.0.4, i can't find him. I went to the keep and he's missing. Should we be concerned?

Kommentar von Azunyan

He's... missing in the Keep. I was surprised not to see him there since he can't be killed by players.

It was also weird seeing the A Villain Unmasked quest play out without him around. Samuelson jumps at Varian and they just duke it out (with the guards assisting the King) without Anduin around to cast the shield on his father. Samuelson doesn't even transform.

Is this some kind of bug or is he really not in the keep?

Kommentar von Moreofme

The prince is classified as pet rather than companion or guardian. I am not certain that was his father's intention when he sent him off with me tough...

Kommentar von Maxeek

Anduin is currently kicking ass in Pandaria. Somehow he decided he likes pandas more then his father and hes around a lot. I see bright future for his character.

Kommentar von 1000732

So, I experienced the strangest bit of cognitive dissonance earlier, when I was fighting along side Andy here on my Horde Rogue.

I can just see how this would have gone.

Anduin: <Strategizing>
Merry: <Initially chillin', eyes Andy and slowly reaches out with a dagger>
Anduin: <Turns around sharply>
Merry: <Hides dagger behind back, whistle innocently>
Anduin: STOP THAT!
Merry: ...What? I didn't do anything.

For the record, I DID try and take him to the Horde Camp. The little bugger runs off before you get there.

Why couldn't I use a gryphon at level 5?

When does he become king? World of Warcraft: Rise of the Emerald Molten Murloc Undead Legion?

Appears ONE of the mentioned names were correct!
