The N'Raqi, also known as the Faceless Ones or the Faceless, are mysterious monsters that reside in Azjol-Nerub and Icecrown in Northrend.
Overview[]
Faceless Ones are vaguely humanoid creatures who, as the name implies, have no discernible faces insofar as other races recognize them. One arm is much larger than the other, grotesque and misshapen, while the other is little more than a prehensile tentacle. Faceless generals are massive Faceless with a hardened shell. They seem to be the leaders of the Faceless ones.
Tales say they lived in Azjol-Nerub long before the Scourge came, dwelling too deep for the Nerubians to hunt them. The strange Faceless Ones are ancient monsters long imprisoned beneath the ice and recently loosed again. Faceless Ones have a long magical heritage. They draw upon their race's legacy of arcane spellcasting traditions to increase their power. Although Faceless Ones have a racially low intellect, they have a strong heritage of necromantic magic. A second passage into the Old Kingdom has been discovered by the Scourge, and the Faceless Ones will overpower even the undead and then be free to escape into Northrend proper.
