So I cleaned this up instead of being made of daft in others' comment sections anymore XD

Azshara you look rather stable here this must be from before Xavius oh-so-geniusly opened his portal to nowhere and Sargeras et your brains.

She is very purple yes.

(It's photoshop over pencil crayon; there was an ungodly smudge on her nose for no reason I can discern, so I messed with it XD; )

Heh ... and I suddenly had a flashback to BtVS S5 when Giles asks Buffy what Glorificus is like, and Buffy says, "She's a lot like Cordelia, actually."

(And I mean S1 Cordy, who was just "Well of course I'm the center of attention, it is my due.")

I sort of concept Azshara thus: her ego become so inflated by all the worship (which I would like to think had some justification at some point: she had to have had QUALITIES) that she actually bought the nonsense about Sargeras being the only consort worthy of her. ~ Which maybe fits in as another piece of that complexity you mentioned.

That makes sense. Like--she started out a charismatic, caring, brilliant leader and all those qualities got twisted over time.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinkin'.

Absolute power worship corrupts absolutely.
