***POSSIBLE SPOILER***???

Unless I am behind the times, I believe we know Ra-den's model now.

On this page: http://www.wowhead.com/news=210031/5-2- ... -new-items

If you scroll down to the icons, you will see this icon on the first row, about the middle: Image

If you click, it says "achievement_boss_ra_den"

Which looks a lot like this model datamined a while back. If you go here: http://www.wowhead.com/news=209850/5-2- ... tal-cities#.

There is a section with models and if you hover over this guy, it says "captured titan." Ra-den may be a titan? The lore will all shake out when we get there, but I think this is pretty compelling evidence. When I first saw this "captured titan," I thought of Ra-den but now seeing the achievement icon as well...

And yes I have searched to see if this had been said buried in some thread I overlooked, I don't want to steal anyones thunder here.

Get it? Thunder? Raiden--- ehh nevermind.

Yup, that's his model all right. It shows that model in Ra-den's dungeon journal page.

He's a titan keeper, much like Thorim or Freya--Wrathion refers to him as such in his 5.2 dialog.

Titanic constructs are labelled as "titans" in game files. For example, the generic model used by (among others) Loken is called "titan.m2". Ra-Den is meant to be the Keeper of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, betrayed and imprisoned by Lei Shen.
