A dragonman is a type of dragonkin. Maloriak was a human kidnapped by Nefarian and fused with the corpse of a dragonspawn. The result was a bumbling minion who possessed only a dull of his former intelligence.[1] Failed fusions are called aberrations and can be found in the Fleshrender's Workshop. Several of them appear as enemies in Island Expeditions, accompanying the black dragonflight.

Trivia
- The name dragonman comes from their model file names.
- At BlizzCon 2010, it was mentioned in an offhand comment that dragonmen were based on unused concept art for a scrapped idea for a playable race. That concept art seems to be the one present in The Art of World of Warcraft, see gallery below.[2]
- Dragonmen use the playable worgen skeleton.
- The dragonmen aberrations use the plague eruptor skeleton. They are known as dragonman hulk in the game files.
Speculation

It appears that the fusion process was a failed experiment by Nefarian to create loyal minions with their original intellect. It might also have been an attempt by Nefarian to recreate the dracthyr.
