Blasted Lands

The **Blasted Lands** bear that name for a reason: they were twisted by the magic that brought the Dark Portal into being, spewing the rampaging orcish Horde into Azeroth. Though the original portal was destroyed by Khadgar in the Second War, it was later rebuilt for Ner'zhul's Horde to cross. To the north of the region is the Swamp of Sorrows.

## Rares

###### Akubar the Seer - Alive

A Lost One shaman that commands fire, water and lightning on the eastern coast. Crazed from a loss of connection to the Light, this one-draenei will attack any in sight.

###### Blackleaf - Alive

Within the Tainted Forest, Legion corruption is on the rise with the local flora and fauna. Blackleaf is an example of such, an ancient who was twisted into a demonic agent.

###### Cassia the Slitherqueen - Alive

As a Priestess of Azshara, Cassia resides among the Bloodwash Naga, wielding her holy magics against the Rockpool Murlocs and any who would interfere at the Red Reaches. Using offensive and defensive spells, she poses a constant threat regardless of the approach.

###### Clack the Reaver - Alive

On the northern road leading into the Swamp of Sorrows, a scorpion whose rock hard chitin resides. Clack is overtly hostile towards any they come in sight of, and will use splashes and stings of venom to wear down travellers to an early grave.

###### Deatheye - Alive

South-west of Nethergarde Keep, the basilisk Deatheye stalks for prey on the road. Using their burning gaze and stone breath, they slow down and stagger their victims to make for swift kills.

###### Dreadscorn - Alive

At the Altar of Storms in the area, Dreadscorn defends it in the name of the Shadowsworn. This demon-worshipping orc utilises a spiked mace to enforce his presence against would-be invaders.

###### Grunter - Alive

North of the Dark Portal, the Helboar Grunter seeks prey. This demonic swine uses their hulking force and sharp tusks to rip targets apart into bloody masses.

###### Magronos the Unyielding - Alive

At Dreadmaul Post, Magronos imposes upon the local land. This axe-wielding ogre uses their ungodly strength and violent rage to prepare for a resumed conquest of the lands.

###### Mojo the Twisted - Alive

North of Dreadmaul Post, Mojo commands shadow and fel. Within his cave, the ogre plots his schemes, hidden in the hills.

###### Mordak Nightbender - Alive

South of Nethergarde Keep, Mordak Nightbender can be found brewing unholy concoctions. This Shadowsworn orc uses void and fel magics to corrupt his surroundings to bring assailants low.

###### Narixxus the Doombringer - Alive

Narixxus stands at the Tainted Scar, committing to dark rituals at an altar. The Eredar commands destructive fel magics to defend their ritual site.

###### Ravage - Alive

North of Dreadmaul Post, Ravage can be detected by their pinkish purple-hued fur. Once their jaws get around a target, the odd-furred hyena is known to leave infections in the wound.

###### Spiteflayer - Alive

On the road north-east of the Dark Portal, the vulture Spiteflayer takes to the skies. Fel magic had corrupted this bird into having two heads, where they spit fel fireballs at their targets from above.

###### Teremus the Devourer - Alive

Circling the Dark Portal, the Black Drake Teremus seeks to consume the souls of unfortunate passers-by. Using a mix of unholy powers and draconic fire, the ominous nature of the Dark Portal is maintained, even from the outside.
