Ephial

Ephial is a human necromancer found in Admiral Taylor's Farm in western Spires of Arak. After the Alliance established their garrison in Arak, Taylor noticed that Ephial was obsessed with ley lines. 
When a group of lumberjacks disappeared, Ephial and Nas Dunberlin went to clear the area of wasps. A few days later, the Iron Horde attacked and Ephial went missing after the fighting but subsequently returned. Wrathion told Taylor to keep an eye on Ephial. 
When Taylor left for the Ring of Blood arena battles, Ephial took control of the garrison. After Taylor returned, he was determined to put things rightAdmiral Taylor's Garrison Log but Ephial turned on his comrades, killed everyone in the garrison and raised them as ghosts.

==Notes and trivia==
*Ephial's motives for betraying Taylor lay in the promises of power, offered by someone or something he refers to as the 'dark one'.
*He is similar to Naberius, in the sense that both betrayed their Alliance expeditions to Draenor in order to dabble with the dark powers of necromancy.
*His name is likely a reference to , who betrayed the Greeks during the famous Battle of Thermopylae in the Greco-Persian Wars.
==Speculation==
The identity of the dark one is unclear but is widely speculated to be either an Old God or Kel'Thuzad; Ephial's abilities, Soul Fire and Void Bolt, could fit either one (as well as countless other possibilities). It could also be the Jailer, which would be the case regardless in the latter case.
