Anyone have any characters from the lore they really want to see made into cards?

I know Hearthstone pulls a lot of their content from Warcraft lore, but since I never played WoW I'm not sure how dedicated they are to it.

I'm really hoping that Legends actually pays attention to the 4+ other games worth of world building there is in the TES franchise. There are a lot of characters from previous games that I would love to see featured as legendary cards.

To name a few:

  • Cyrus the Redguard - player character of the spin off game Redguard

  • Jagar Tharn - Antagonist of TES I: Arena

  • The Tribunal - Vivec, Amalexia, and Sotha Sil. Important character in TES III: Morrowind

  • The Numidium - Giant time breaking super centurion seen in TES II: Daggerfall

  • Haskill - Chamberlain to the MadGod Sheogorath, seen the the Shivering Isles dlc

  • Odahviing - Dragon companion in Skyrim

  • Mannimarco - The King of Worms, head honcho of all necromancers, seen in Daggerfall and TES IV: Oblivion

  • Nulfaga - powerful witch and important quest giver from Daggerfall

  • Master Arngeir - Greybeard quest giver met in Skyrim

  • The Underking - Mysterious lich and also an important quest giver in Daggerfall

  • The Mudcrab Merchant

  • Lucien Lachance - Dark Brotherhood quest giver from Oblivion

  • N'Gasta - Sload necromancer seen in Redguard

  • The Grey Fox - Head of the Thieves guild, most famous thief of all time, seen in Oblivion

And those are just character seen in the games. There are a lot more characters mentioned in the lore that were never actually seen:

  • Jurgen Windcaller - Founder of the Greybeards

  • Gaiden Shinji - Famous imperial hero, and founder of the Arena in the imperial city

  • Pelinal Whitestrake - The divine crusader. Supposedly a homicidal cyborg time traveler from a distant era.

  • Umaril the Unfeathered - Ayleid demi-god sorcerer king of the first era.

  • Indoril Nerevar - Most famous of the Dunmeri hero's, served as God-King of the Chimer along with the tribunal.

  • Ysmir Wulfharth - The Dragon of the North, legendary ancient king of Skyrim. He was supposedly one of the Shezarrine, reincarnations of the Trickster God Lorkhan

  • Saint Alessia - Leader of mankind's great rebellion against the Ayleids, and founder of the First Empire, as well as the religion of the Eight Divines.

  • Reman Cyrodiil - God-Hero who united all the nations of Tamriel, fought off the Akiviri invasion, and founded the Second Empire.

  • Talos Stormcrown - One of the most obvious choices for a card. Nordic Hero General who conquered all of Tamriel, founded the Third Empire (the Septim dynasty we see up to Oblivion) and supposedly ascended to godhood.

And finally there is my favorite obscure character from the lore, Frandar Hunding. He was the greatest of all the Yokudan Sword-Singers. According to legend, he ended the civil war on Yokuda by pulling of a sword move that sliced the fabric of reality and caused a nuclear explosion that sunk the continent.

There are a lot more characters I'm sure, but I don't want to go through the trouble of naming them all. The ones here are mostly from the provinces with the races of man, since I'm not as familiar with the Beast and Mer races.
