Archimonde the Defiler, Supreme Lord of the Burning Crusade, is a mighty eredar lord, and the Supreme Lord of the Burning Legion's infinite armies. He is Mannoroth's master and commander, and he oversees all the Legion's conquests throughout Creation. He is an equal to Kil'jaeden, and though he lacks his brother's wisdom and vision, Archimonde makes up for it with his terrible power, as well as tactical brilliance.
It was Archimonde who plotted the invasion of Mundus, placing the pit lord Mannoroth in charge of the operation. Currently, Archimonde's loyal servant ravages Mundus, with the Defiler observing carefully. Should Mannoroth fail in his duties, it seems likely that Archimonde would personally become involved in the Invasion of Mundus, and unleash the fullest wrath of the Burning Legion...

Archimonde laying waste to a world.
Powers and Personality[]
Unlike his brother Kil'jaeden, whose vision and faith influences his actions in service to the Legion, Archimonde is a being motivated purely by lust for conquest and destruction of his enemies. Purely malevolent, the Lord of the Burning Onslaught has absolutely no concept of mercy, and he shows his foes none. Equal parts cunning and mighty, Archimonde employs his tactics and powers so that his cunning will succeed where strength cannot, and his strength will succeed where cunning cannot.
Nevertheless, Archimonde's powers are likened to a god in their own right, and he wields nearly limitless fel power as well as physical strength. One of the most mighty beings in Existence, he has never come upon any obstacle, nor any challenge that he cannot crush under his heel.
