Archmage Khadgar was one of the most powerful wizards to have ever lived, one of the greatest heroes of the Alliance during the Second War, and the Supreme Commander of the Alliance Expedition to Draenor.

Background

At a young age, Khadgar was sent by the Kirin Tor to apprentice under Medivh in his tower at Karazhan. At first, Khadgar believed Medivh to be nothing more than he appeared to be, a kindly, old, if slightly eccentric wizard, but it wasn't long before he began to sense something was drastically wrong with his master. Though he never suspected that Medivh was actually being controlled by Sargeras, the Dark Titan, he became suspicious of his master's actions and motives. Eventually, he unraveled Medivh's plot to open a portal between Azeroth and Draenor after meeting a Horde emmisary, the half-orc assassin Garona. Knowing it was already too late to stop the Dark Portal from opening further, Khadgar and Garona rushed to King Llane Wrynn of Azeroth for help. The pair, along with Lord Anduin Lothar and a group of soldiers returned to Karazhan to find Medivh in psychic link with the orc warlock Gul'dan. Khadgar managed to defeat Medivh in magical combat, banishing both his soul, and that of Sargeras who was controlling him. Medivh himself was slain by Lothar.<ref>The Last Guardian</ref>

Following Medivh's death and the fall of Stormwind to the orcs, Khadgar fled north with Lord Lothar and the rest of the refugees to Lordaeron. He spent the Second War fighting with the Alliance of Lordaeron, all the while studying Medivh's spells and the nature of the Dark Portal. When the tide of the war turned and the Alliance managed to push the Horde back to the Portal itself, Khadgar attempted to destroy the Dark Portal, effectively severing the link between Azeroth and Draenor. The rift between worlds remained, however. To guard against a second attack from Draenor, Khadgar oversaw the construction of Nethergarde Keep in the Black Morass.

In the aftermath of the Second War, the Kirin Tor dispatched an assembly of mages to search Karazhan and seize all items of import for the purposes of research.<ref>Archmage Angela Dosantos#Gossip about Atiesh</ref> The Council of Six approached Khadgar for aid in venturing into the tower and retrieving those dangerous relics left behind during the chaos of Anduin Lothar's assault on Karazhan. With the aid of Archmage Vandol, sent by Archmage Antonidas, he secured some of Medivh's artifacts to bring them to Dalaran.<ref>Khadgar's Journal</ref>

Khadgar's fears would be validated only a year after Nethergarde's completion, when the portal opened again, and orc forces began pouring out, striking strategically to steal powerful artifacts. Fearing a second invasion, Khadgar led an Alliance Expedition to the orc homeworld, where he quickly discovered that the situation was even worse than he had feared. The orcs, under the leadership of the shaman Ner'zhul, were planning on opening doorways to new worlds for the Horde to plunder. Unable to stop Ner'zhul from opening his portals, and unable to contain the terrible energies they unleashed, the archmage used Medivh's spellbook to close the Dark Portal from the other side, thereby shielding Azeroth from the final cataclysm of Draenor's destruction. The fate of the expedition after this point is unknown.
