A Bandit Lord under the command of a sizeable force of thieves and villains. He established one of his temporary base camps, unluckily, inbetween a conflict between the Dreadlord Varimathras and Sylvanas.
Sylvanas, lacking sizeable forces, used one of her faithful Banshees to possess Blackthorn, who then was forced to command his bandits to serve Sylvanas. Thus did Sylvanas gain another vanguard against her temporary enemy, Varimathras.
