Marduk Blackpool is a level 58 elite named skeleton in Scholomance.

Background

Brutal warlord of the Scourge also known as Marduk the Black. Amongst his many campaigns against the humans of Lordaeron, he cut a swath through their forces at the Battle of Darrowshire causing great death and suffering with his foul, rune laden sword. However his runeblade was lost in a battle near Corin's Crossing. A Dwarf captain shattered the sword on his enchanted shield, forcing Marduk to flee the field and winning the day for the Alliance.

Marduk's involvement in the Battle of Darrowshire was corrupting Joseph Redpath (Captain Redpath) and many other members of the Redpath Militia to ensure the defeat of the Defenders of Darrowshire.

Marduk's sword sank into the earth and corrupted it, eating a gorge into the land, now known as the Infectis Scar. However it seems that the Death Knight still retain the hilt of his sword and is still able to spread corruption through it.

After the initial invasion, he became a tutor in the Scholomance. He was a partner of Vectus, who researched corrupted dragon eggs in the hopes of creating a plagued dragonflight for their use. Blackpool paid little heed to the battles raging throughout Scholomance, until the [Dawn's Gambit] was unleashed in the Viewing Room. Then, he charged into battle to defend Vectus.

Note

'Marduk' is also a name of an ancient Mesopotamian deity.
