Furion is trapped in stasis inside the Emerald Nightmare, last I heard.

The Emerald Dream is the Emerald Nightmare.

And I think Arthas was the lead role in the overall War3 storyline... he certainly changed more things than Furion did, especially when you consider what he did under the thrall of Ner'zhul. Wiped out Quel'thalas (thus starting the events that lead to the Blood Elves), eliminated Uther and the Knights of the Silver Hand, obliterated the human kingdom of Lordaeron, corrupted most of the Night Elf lands, sacrificed Muradin to gain power in the form of Frostmourne (and also betrayed his own soldiers by convincing them that the ogre and troll mercenaries he hired were the reason their ships were destroyed, which is basically betraying two sets of people at the same time), and by making the Scourge more powerful and more autonomous, heavily influenced the corruption, exile, and (in WoW time) death of Illidan. About the only people he didn't screw over were Thrall's group.

I'm not talking about what character had the biggest influence. I mean protagonist as in "hero", which Arthas certainly is not.
