"Don't look at him as a giant, he's still thousands of cans of protein powder just away from the entry threshold of the Giant Retinue Wrestling World Championships." --Introduction to the Naga Giants.
1, can not reach the threshold of giants
From the introduction of the Naga giants, we can read that their actual size is far from the size of the giants. Although the Naga giant is one of the largest among the creatures, he still looks a little small in front of our common molten core giants, mountain giants, and sea giants.
In Nashthar, players can find these Naga giants. The size of the Naga is already stronger than the character used by the player, and these Naga giants are a little taller and stronger than the usual Nagas, which is about 2 to 3 times the height of the human characters. And the size of the giants we commonly see is far beyond this threshold, and ordinary humans are really human in front of them, like ants, and their lives are too insignificant.
2. So what are they?
These Naga giants in Hearthstone are often referred to as Naga barbarians, Naga mobs, and naga behemoths. These giant Nagas were usually the heavily armored warriors of the Nasht Empire, and they were the most barbaric siege weapons when the Empire's armies intended to capture the city.
The Naga barbarians went berserk like wild beasts, so it was understandable that they were called Naga beasts. Interestingly, the Naga barbarians were still linguistically capable, although the Grand Mage Khadeja often referred to them as rude beasts.
These Naga barbarians, the Naga mob, were not born like this. Tracing the origins of the Naga, we all know that the Nagas were originally the upper elves of the Kadore Empire, and because of Enzos's "gifts", they were distorted into the current Nagas.
In fact, when the Well of Eternity exploded, although the Well of Eternity was destroyed, the arcane energy of the well water was still there. And with Enzos's twisted curse, the remaining arcane energy of the well water is also affecting the changes of the Naga. The well water energy will not kill these upper elves, but will manifest itself in the Naga in the form of mutation. Well, they used to live by the well.
In fact, in each Naga, there are more or less different mutations or mutations, but these mutations are not as obvious as Enzos's twisted power: for example, some Nagas will grow some soft bone spurs on their bodies or shoulders, or blue swirls appear on their skin... In many female Nagas, the effects of this arcane magic are particularly pronounced: four arms. Queen Asara is a representative of this.
In response to the other Nagas, due to the uneven overflow and distribution of well water energy during the explosion, some individuals who had come into contact with and absorbed a large amount of well water magic energy underwent very significant changes in the process of distortion: the most obvious was the change in body shape, and the giant expanded so much that they could not enter and exit the Nashatar building normally. Some are even closer to the creatures of the deep sea, unlike the Nagas. The Naga barbarians are exactly such beings: huge, multi-purpose mutant individuals.
The arcane energy in the Great Vortex gives these individuals greater strength and additional characteristics, maximizing their biological strengths and minimizing their weaknesses. This is also the principle of conforming to the creation of the Titan Order, because do not forget that the arcane energy comes from the Titans.
On the other hand, changes in appearance do not affect their minds. Therefore, no matter what kind of Nagas they were, they remained loyal to their queen. No matter how many tens of thousands of years have passed, Queen Aisara has always been their Queen of Nashthar. Aisara herself was satisfied with this.
3. Some significant individuals
In the Zanzir region of Nashtar, a Naga called the Zanzir tribe had a large number of Naga barbarian warriors. They were loyal followers of Queen Asara and had been expanding their territory for the Nasht Empire.
At the Tomb of Sagras, Isara had sent the Naga barbarians to steal the Tidal Stone of Gorgonis. From the day of his birth, the Naga mob Hayatan had been trained by the Queen, had experienced all kinds of cruel and barbaric conquests, and was ready to dedicate his most violent power to his Queen. On the Abyss Throne, players encounter Hayatan, a reckless and vicious Naga mob.
Finally, in the original setting, the concept map of the Naga barbarians is actually closer to the ordinary Naga. It was later changed to a powerful hind limb, polyamorous, and a shorter, stubby tail. The Nagas were not opposed to such special variations, seeing them as a sign of greatness and believing that the Nagas might one day become the most perfect species in Azeroth.
