I've seen a few articles claim Riven is an Ahamkara, but do we know for sure? What gives me doubts about Riven being an Ahamkara is that the body/head look nothing like you would expect it to look like from the Ahamkara bones/skulls we've had on our armor. If Riven is a wish dragon, then why does the body bear such little resemblance to the shape of the bones?

Ahem.....Spoliers. I've completed the campaign, but not everyone has. [spoiler]I doubt he's an Ahamkara....but I think he's showing that the conflict we're engaged in is much older and much wider than just the races we've been battling for the last 4 years. I suspect that Riven is some being that is a servant of the Darkness or the Deep that has somehow become trapped in the Ascendant Realm....and was taking advantage of the chaos that Oryx's death has created. to stage his own jailbreak. Remember one of his lines to Uldren is, [i]"Even Paradise is a prison if you can't leave." [/i][/spoiler]
