Galakrond, a massive proto-dragon,[1] was the "progenitor of dragonkind". He was a threat which five proto-dragons of varying colors united against.[2] From him, the Titans changed those five into the Aspects. His size alone was greater than all of the Aspects combined,[3] large enough that the only possible being Galakrond could be compared to was himself. His roar could be heard from miles around, and the flap of his wings generated powerful wind.[4] As time went on, Galakrond grew hideous mutations all over his body, such as limbs and even eyes. Galakrond was not always this large and he used to have a smoother, more streamlined appearance.[5] By devouring proto-dragons and then regurgitating them, Galakrond's victims came back as undead.
A bone fragment from his corpse was retrieved by Trag Highmountain. He could see its potential and took it with him.[1]
Some time afterwards, Grand Necrolord Antiok was put in charge of an effort to raise Galakrond to undeath.[6]

In prehistoric Azeroth, the proto-dragons lived in fear of Galakrond. On a day when dozens gathered to hunt, Galakrond appeared and took their prey, terrifying them all. The blue-white proto-dragon Malygos was curious as to why Galakrond would hunt in that area when he never had before, to which his new friend Neltharion responded that there was more food. Malygos, however, was quick to point out that the food was their food.
As proto-dragons began dying brutally, becoming nothing more than shriveled up husks of skin and bone, Malygos grew to believe Galakrond was somehow behind it. A terrified purple proto-dragon crying "Swallowed them up! Swallowed them up!" only backed up Malygos's theories.
Some time later, Galakrond began devouring dozens of proto-dragons. Kalecgos, who was seeing this time through the eyes of Malygos, noted that his neck seemed bloated. No one could understand why Galakrond was eating them, and as Malygos dove for cover the massive dragon's jaws surrounded him.
