Background
Araj the Summoner was a lich in the service of Ner'zhul, the Lich King, who became regional commander of Scourge forces in the Western Plaguelands. He first appeared in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos in Chapter Seven: The Shores of Northrend in the Human Campaign. The lich was in charge of a scourge stronghold that was attacked and razed by Arthas, hoping the dreadlord Mal'Ganis was cowering within the base. Araj was able to be killed in the mission, but he obviously was not, seeing his reappearance in World of Warcraft. It is known that he was the former leader of Scholomance before aiding the scourge invasion of Caer Darrow and later claiming the city of Andorhal as his own.
Headquartered in the ruined city of Andorhal, Araj had two primary responsibilities: spread the Plague of Undeath via massive Plague Cauldrons situated at various points throughout the area, and continue to pound at the Forsaken defenses at the strategic pass known as the Bulwark. These duties kept him busy for some time after the end of the Third War, but ultimately it was the spreading of his resources that spelt his doom. Considering the Forsaken to be the most necessary target of Scourge forces, he left his southern flank far less guarded than was wise, perhaps not considering an Alliance incursion likely. Araj also lead the Undead ravagers to Hearthglen during the Third War,somehow he escaped from Uther and his knights.
Agents of the Argent Dawn are planning to infiltrate the city and summon forth the lich to defeat him.
Notes
The 
[Attuned Dampener] (tb) works against Araj. You get it from Chromie in the Andorhal.
See Thottbot's debuff description.
