Lady Katrana Prestor and Lord [[Bolvar Fordragon]] serve as the king's main advisers, and they pretty much call the shots.

Her motivations are unknown; she's certainly either working for something malicious, or she is malicious herself.<ref>{{ref book |author= White Wolf |title= [[Alliance Player's Guide]] |isbn= 9781588467737 |pages=162-163}}</ref>

Lady Katrana Prestor and Lord Bolvar Fordragon serve as the king's main advisers, and they pretty much call the shots. However, Bolvar is not one to insult the judgment of an "educated" lady like Katrana Prestor. It seems like her advice is pretty much the exact opposite of anything a logical person with half a brain would come up with. As a result of Lady Prestor's intervention, proper human leadership has become impossible. She doesn't seem to think the other races are necessary. Katrana won't even allow the king to send reinforcements to human lands that desperately need it, such as Duskwood and the Redridge Mountains. Every report of enemy activity on those fronts is shot down for lack of "proof", despite knowledge of dead men and women. It's unknown what she did to get the prince's ear, but for whatever reason she’s managed to keep both the king and Lord Bolvar following her directions (and some of them are clearly nonsense). She's just playing games with the Alliance troops when they have good men and women dying out on the front.

True identity

Lady Prestor is the human form of the black dragon Onyxia, broodmother of the black dragonflight and daughter of Deathwing. She controls Highlord Bolvar through the use of the Inv jewelry talisman 11 [Drakefire Amulet]. Her name is an homage to the form her father took when human, Lord Daval Prestor. She manipulates the Kingdom of Stormwind, keeping them in the dark while her brother NefarianLord Victor Nefarius — manipulates the Dark Horde in its battle against Ragnaros.

While Nefarian is her brother, there is no evidence that the Victor Nefarius' human identity is supposed to be related to the "Prestor" line.

In Wrath of the Lich King

Wrath-Logo-Small This section concerns content related to Wrath of the Lich King.

Both Highlord Fordragon and Lady Prestor were removed in Patch 3.0.2. During the second Scourge Invasion, an Argent Healer stood in Prestor's place.

With Varian's return and the fact that Onyxia is considered dead by the time of Wrath of the Lich King, it is unlikely Lady Prestor will return.

Name

Katrana's name may be derived from the word katran (катран in the cyrilic script) present in several Slavic languages, meaning spiny dogfish and more commonly tar. If this is the case, her name (meaning tar) refers to her real identity as a black dragon, or, if the name means mud shark, to her evil nature.
