Void gods are the most powerful type of void creature yet encountered. They are gigantic and, unlike void lords, wear no armor. The first, encountered by adventurers in the Sunwell, was born from a dying naaru named M'uru, and some parts of the naaru's form are still visible. A second was born of the alternate timeline's K'ure, a transformation which was initiated by Cho'gall deep within Oshu'gun on Draenor.
The Void gods and Void lords are one and the same, though there are lesser of them. They rarely take physical form as it is extremely difficult and requires the majority of their power. The Void gods/lords are responsible for the Old gods scattered throughout the Great Dark Beyond on various planets, including Azeroth. Their desire is to corrupt all life and destroy the Light.
However, these two are not confirmed to have been born of a dying Naaru, so it is debatable as to whether these are actually Void Gods, or another class of powerful void being which happens to use the same model.
Ner'zhul summons this creature using powers drawn from The Dark Star during the quest [91] Shadows Awaken. Again, this being is not summoned as a result of the death of a Naaru, but rather the leeching of it's energies while it is still in it's darkened state. It is also referred to as only a shard/fraction of the Dark Star's power, so it's classification is unconfirmed.
A fourth creature has a character model similar to other speculated void gods, but is of creature type Undead and has a unique model:
Nhallish is the 2nd boss of Shadowmoon Burial Grounds. It shares a similar mechanism of wanting to devour all life,[1] but some have classified it as a Void revenant like Xhul'horac <Shadowfel Amalgamation>.
