==Background==
 
[[Image:Blightcaller-past.jpg|thumb|right|Before the Blightcaller - Nathanos Marris in Caverns of Time: Old Hillsbrad]]
 
In life, Nathanos Marris was the first and last of the human ranger lords, trained by the [[high elves]] in the ways of war and a disciple of [[Sylvanas Windrunner]], now the Banshee Queen of the [[Forsaken]].
 
 
Nathanos's accomplishments were unprecedented. He was a tactical genius, responsible for [[Alliance]] victories spanning a decade of conflict in addition to his formidable combat skills (5 of the best agents SI:7 went after him and he presumably killed 4 and the fifth one died 3 days after returning to [[Stormwind]] under mysterious circumstances.)
 
 
When the [[Scourge]] came, he defended himself in his house but alas, the Scourge's mighty [[abomination]], [[Ramstein the Gorger]], slew Nathanos. Nathanos became a mindless servant of the [[Lich King]], but he was freed by the Banshee Queen along with many other undead. He took the name Blightcaller and was given the title ''Champion of the Forsaken''.
 
 
Now he resides at [[Marris Stead]] in the [[Eastern Plaguelands]], recruiting soldiers to rid the Plaguelands of various nuisances and slaying all Scourge and Alliance filth that cross his path. The Blightcaller is also Supreme Commander of Horde Forces in the Eastern Plaguelands.
 
 
He has tamed two [[Blighthound]]s, always guarding him with their lives, and is able to summon a whole skeletal army within a few minutes.
 
 
==Current activities==
 
Nathanos now stands his post in the Eastern Plaguelands. He aids the Horde, distributing assignments to fight against the Scourge. His presence is also discovered by the Alliance in World of Warcraft, and since then has been branded as an abomination that must not be left alive.
 
 
Recently, [[Varian Wrynn]] (formerly [[Highlord Bolvar Fordragon]]) has enlisted Alliance adventurers to kill Blightcaller.
 
 
==Strategy==
 
One strategy is to take Nathanos down as fast as possible, whilst reducing the aggro on weaker party members.<br />
 
This enables the group to at least complete the quest, or gain honor under the [[Honor system]] for the kill, while all the party is (still) alive.
 
 
'''Numbers'''
 
* You need at least 8 people in a raid group at lower levels, with a main and off-tank.
 
* He has been soloed by a level 72 Retribution Paladin with Tempest Keep equivilent gear.
 
* If you only want the quest completion, Nathanos, and do not mind running or dying, then this can be done solo at about Lvl 68.
 
 
'''Preparation'''
 
* Buff your party with as many armor spells as possible such as the Druid spell [[Mark of the Wild]]. Your party will take a lot of damage from the mobs of skeletons Nathanos calls every 8 seconds.
 
* Use guardian potions and elixirs such as [[Greater Stoneshield Potion]] for armor or [[Elixir of Major Fortitude]] for increased health.
 
* Use battle elixirs such as [[Elixir of Major Strength]] and [[Adept's Elixir]] to increase the damage per second.
 
'''Order of Attack'''
 
* Focus on Nathanos himself and take him down as fast as possible. He has roughly 35,000 to 77,000 health and can be taken down in a minute or so, at which point no more skeletons will be added.
 
* The Blighthounds will not do any serious damage until he is down. Deal with them second, and the skeletons third.
 
'''Damage Limitation'''
 
* If you have a tank with serious armor, use them to collect the damage from the skeletons, taking it away from cloth wearers (mage, warlock, priest) and leather wearers (Druid, Shaman and Rogue) — the Paladin and warrior spells should be useful here to redirect any aggro.
 
* Avoid healing as 2-4 skeletons are attracted to the healer. This includes [[Direct Heal|direct heals]] such as Druid [[Healing Touch]] and [[Regrowth]], [[heal over time]] spells such as Druid [[Rejuvenation]] (though this generates less threat), Warlock's drain spells, [[bandage]]s, potions, pet heals, and life stealing enchants. Rather than heal, run; stop fighting to reduce threat (trinkets etc with Spirit bonuses are useful here) and heal normally; or let your tanks do the healing to attract aggro back.
 
 
==Notes==
 
A younger version of Nathanos Marris can be seen alive, in very similar attire (minus the rot), in the Town Hall of Southshore in the [[Old Hillsbrad Foothills]] wing of the [[Caverns of Time]].
