Rimblat Earthshatter

Rimblat Earthshatter is a tauren quest giver located in the Eastern Plaguelands. He is affiliated with the Earthen Ring.

==History==
===Wrath of the Lich King===
Earthshatter appears at the Battle for Light's Hope Chapel during The Light of Dawn (quest). Unlike most of the named mobs in the fight minus the Argent Defenders, both Rimblat and Rayne can be taken down if they are heavily focused on. However, they will merely fall unconscious, rather than outright die. When the Lich King kills several members of the Argent Dawn, Rimblat is one of them. Afterward, he is resurrected prior to the quest's ending.
He also appears at the Argent Stand in Zul'Drak. He and Rayne do not give any quests here in Northrend, but are interactable and will speak of how devastated Zul'Drak is.
===Cataclysm===
After the Cataclysm, he returned to Light's Hope Chapel and can be recruited to join Fiona's Caravan.
===Warlords of Draenor===
He appeared on with Fiona and her caravan. While there, he was trapped by the botani but soon rescued by the Alliance commander.
===Dragonflight===
He appears in the Waking Shores at the Dragonscale Basecamp to act as a consultant for the Dragonscale Expedition.

;Dragonscale Basecamp, Waking Shores
Well-met. The earth here is waking in remarkable ways. The Expedition has sought some of the Earthen Ring to act as consultants. I am happy to oblige. It is a wonderful opportunity to see old friends and discover more of Azeroth.
;Zul'Drak
: Can you hear it, <class>? The elements cry out that this land is almost dead. The Drakkari are stealing the power of their gods by killing them just to defend themselves against the Scourge.
: They are short-sighted and will be their own undoing in the end.

Greetings, <name>.
I've been expec...
<Rimblat coughs.>
Excuse me, old habit. I am Rimblat of the Earthen Ring.

:In the last war, tauren fought. Shaman were sent in defense of this world against the Scourge invasion. Most lost their lives. Many were otherwise ripped asunder, their body parts used for foul experiments in that cursed citadel. I mourn their passing but my heart swells with pride at their courage.
::
::I was a young tauren, barely having reached adolescence at the time, but I knew that those that would brave the battles for our freedom were well protected in my namesake's vestments.
:::
:::The name of Earthshatter has been one held by my family for hundreds of years. And like my father and his father before him, I too have inherited the right to create the vestments of my namesake.
==Trivia==
*Cue "I've been expec..." in his interaction description is the humor reference to common random voiced tauren greeting "Ah, I've been expecting you". Anyway, he can still welcome character by the full voiced greeting randomly.
*While his TCG art portrays him with brown fur and mane, his in-game model is grey-colored.
