Antaen

Antaen are massive demons found on Argus. They are so large that Illidan Stormrage and Prophet Velen mistook the top of one's head for a siege weapon.^[1] Two are similarly submerged in front of the Xenedar, using their horns as portals to summon Soulripper Warfiends. The only other example directly encountered is Kin'garoth, creator of the Garothi fel reavers.

Named

•   Kin'garoth <Engineer of the Apocalypse>

Types

•   Antaen Light-Breaker

Notes

• The antaen model is named Goliath in the files.
• The antaen are based on early concept for an "Argus Dreadlord".^[2]
• They use the animations of Ragnaros' model from the Firelands encounter.
• Antaen are reminiscent of The RealmWalker from Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, a strange extra-planar creature with a portal on its back similar to the antaen's horns.
• The architecture of the Burning Legion appears to be heavily inspired by the Anteans.
