The High Queen: Difference between revisions

No edit summary
Line 128:
* Alexstrasza, [[Our Dragons Are Different|<Queen of the Dragons>]] from ''World of Warcraft'' takes the term [[Authority Equals Asskicking]] to a whole new level by being one of the most powerful, albeit [[Big Good|benign]] creatures in Azeroth. As a matter of fact, she could take down the resident [[Big Bad]] by her own if she wanted to. [[Story-Breaker Power|Of course]], [[Technical Pacifist|that]] [[Friend to All Living Things|would be]] [[Alice in Wonderland (film)|against her vows]].
** Although, at this point, [[Big Bad|Deathwing]] is so [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|absurdly powerful]] himself that when Alexstrasza and him finally fought in Twilight Highlands after the Cataclysm, it reached a stalemate of sorts with her severely wounded to the point that a mere mortal had to carry her off to safety, but yeah she is considered one of the most powerful creatures to ever have ''existed'' (that's about 60,000 years since she became the [[Our Dragons Are Different|Queen of the Dragons]]/Life-binder via the [[Powers That Be|Tit]][[Neglectful Precursors|ans]]); it makes you wonder why she didn't just shit all over the Burning Legion, Lich King, the Old Gods, or even Malygos before the [[Big Damn Heroes]] did all the hard work for her. She ''has'' been pissed off enough to kill and enact revenge, especially when her own literal children are involved -- "Nekrosss... You had them [[Berserk Button|ssslay my children]]! [[Mama Bear|My children]]!" (seconds before eating Nekros).
* Empress Cygnus in ''[[Maple Story]]'', although she is less the ruler of Maple World as she is the leader of the heroes who defend it from darker forces.
* ''[[King's Quest]]'': Valanice is the most prominent, but Genesta and Titania also do well here.
** Valanice is a good (as in non-evil) Queen, but she is not presented as a radiant untouchable goddess who is never wrong. The Fairy Queens fit this trope much better.
