Says the guy who calls Zarosians 100% evil. Kharshai may be cool, but he doesn't lift a finger to Azzanadra. Plus, I've liked Azzanadra since Kharshai was but a name in Zemouregal's notes.


Personally, I've always preferred Kharshai, but Azzanadra is my second favourite.

My favourite Mahjarrat is also Azzanadra. Mostly because of his hat. However he did call us a friend :D

Kharshai interests me and I trust him not to kill me as I am a regent in the Fremmy lands but I don't like him that much. Great lore in that miniquest though.

Azzanadra has Dt which came with Ghostly Robes Miniquest and TTAS plus the awesome "feel the might of Zaros" line so yeah he has the best lore and just is awesome.

Kharshai isn't Zarosian nor Zamorakian so I can call him good if I want to. If it is true, that is a different case.

Azzanadra is a friendly fella, but he's spineless and naïve. He allowed Sliske to turn us in a wight (while he explicitly said we're part of Zaros' plans and needed to stay in one piece) and still believes Sliske is loyal to Zaros (I doubt Sliske knows the meaning of loyalty, only if it benefits him).

@Hc4l Gabba Azzanadra did not see that and could not have stopped Sliske. I fail to see how he is spineless though...

Mod Ana says Azzanadra is not naive about Sliske I asked about it in the TWW FAQ so :P

Allowed Sliske to turn us into a wight? I doubt he had any idea what was going on there. He fled the scene after Lucien's death (likely expecting everybody else to do the same. He says it himself, dragonkin are nothing to mess with). Unless you blame him for not psychically predicting that would happen and grabbing Sliske's wrist to drag him to the temple, or happen to be getting Azzanadra mixed up with Wahisietel.

And, to be fair on the second point, Sliske WAS loyal to Zaros during that quest. He was almost OOC-ly trusting of Sliske in TWW, though. Every time he mentioned Sliske before that, it was how he didn't like him (he was just a useful ally), how he was untrustworthy. I've chalked it up to him not having had much of a choice. He didn't want to kill or incapacitate Sliske: about the only way of stopping him from doing what ever he wants to, it seems.

I think Sliske is loyal to Sliske first and foremost. He's up to something and has his own ideas on how to get there. Whatever the plan Zaros has cooked up Azzanadra and Sliske are certainly not signing from the same hymn sheet. The purpose of adventure is to shine light into dark places,

^That. Actions speak louder than words, Sliske only did things if it benefitted him or if he enjoyed a laugh.

He isn't the type of guy with the word "loyalty" in his dictionary. Zaros knows that.

Apparently some people think they know Sliske better than a J Mod :P

Sliske has benefitted Zaros plenty. It may benefit himself at the same time but that does not make him disloyal.


Neither did what I say make him disloyal. Neither has anything that's been said placed Zaros' wellbeing over his own though.

I think nearly everybody's favourite Mahjarrat is Azzanadra. Personally, my preference in order would be him, Wahisietel, then Karshai.

I think it all comes down to these people not having done us any harm previously, such as with Zemouregal and Enakhra. Akthanakos and Hazeel haven't either, but those I see as similar; they were both restored (well, I never restored Hazeel but I'm assuming he'll be brought back regardless in future) but other than that they've not really featured as much as the others.

We all know of our good friend Azzanadra. I would also consider Wahisietel as a friend, helping and protecting us in the 18th ritual, and coming to trust us. Karshai is likeable due to him being neutral, so everybody can like him. Also he's very much our Fremennik shield-brother, and who deosn't love the Fremennik? :P
