What's the source on the filename for this concept art, or is it arbitary? This looks a lot more like the Shatterer to me both in size and shape. --Santax (talk · contribs) 09:40, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Title name is made by yours truly. Image comes from here, which is a step-by-step explanation of how Levi created the cinematic stills for the scene in the Vigil intro trailer, which as one should know if they saw the trailer, depicts Kralkatorrik's flight south. The figure in the center forefront is Almorra Soulkeeper - the others, her warband. As one would also note, the depiction of Kralkatorrik was removed from the final version of said cinematic. It's also not the only version of Kralkatorrik artwork by Levi - though the other just shows the back of Kralk's head (the background of that image is the same as the first scene of the Vigil cinematic).

Does this mean that we can actually use actual concept art of Jormag on Jormag's page rather than a cropped screencap of a cinematic? --Santax (talk · contribs) 17:09, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
IMO, the situations are different, as this is clearly used where Kralkatorrik should be, but with that we just have a name to indicate usage in an old version of a cinematic which we know nothing about. But honestly, I don't like this image being on the top because 1) it's unused in the final product and 2) it doesn't exactly match actual concept art of Kralkatorrik used in-game.

Edit: In other words, we shouldn't use that on Jormag (Gallery placement is okay, IMO) for the same reason we shouldn't use the image of a dragon's back from the Vigil trailer on Jormag despite being in the shiverpeaks, or the glowing eyes in the tunnels of the Depths that's used in the same cinematic.
