Bolvar Fordragon WoW Shadowlands: Did He Die?

Bolvar Fordragon was a venerated paladin of the Alliance and served as the Regent of Stormwind following the mysterious disappearance of King Varian Wrynn. but upon Varian's return, Bolvar was named the commander of the Alliance forces sent to take the battle to the Scourge in Northrend. After the treachery of Grand Apothecary Putress at the Battle of Angrathar the Wrathgate, Fordragon was believed to have been killed, either by the Forsaken Blight or the fires of the Red Dragonflight.

Even so, Fordragon survived and his body was altered by the dragons' flame. It was taken by the Scourge into Icecrown Citadel and then he was tortured by the Lich King to break his will and spirit. Nevertheless, it did not work. After the death of the mortal host of the Lich King, Arthas Menethil, Fordragon stated to Tirion Fordring that he should place the Helm of Domination on his head.

Then he was attacked by Sylvanas Windrunner and his power was taken from him. A short cinematic showed him being drug away by allies, but it didn't show whether he would survive from his wounds.

The game revealed that he did in fact survive and he will be a part of the expansion in a big way.
