'''Sintharia''', also known as '''Sinestra''' or '''Lady Sinestra''', was the former prime consort of [[Deathwing]] and mother of [[Nefarian]] and [[Onyxia]]. Until recently, she was believed dead. Her experiments led to the creation of the [[Twilight Dragonflight]], through which she planned to rule Azeroth. Her plans never came to fruition, and it was believed she was killed by her own creation, the twilight dragon [[Dargonax]]. However, recent events have indicated that she has been returned to life by the [[Twilight's Hammer clan|Twilight's Hammer]].

Sintharia was once the prime consort of Neltharion, who later came to be known as {{NPC||Deathwing}}. She gave birth to some of Deathwing's most despicable children including {{NPC||Nefarian}} and his sister, {{NPC||Onyxia}}. After Neltharion's madness overtook him and the rest of the black dragonflight, the newly disfigured Deathwing attempted to mate with his consorts, causing Sintharia a great deal of pain and leaving behind scars and burn marks. Sintharia was the only mate known to have survived.
   
  +
Approximately five hundred years prior to the opening of the Dark Portal, Sintharia attempted to bring down the [[Kirin Tor]] with a curse that left the wizards unable to use their magic. Her scheme was foiled in part by [[Korialstrasz]], consort to Alexstrasza, and when Sintharia was defeated, most believed her to be dead. She survived, however, and forsook her mate and children, taking on the guise of Lady Sinestra, a name she came to use as a dragon as well.<ref>{{ref book |author= Knaak, Richard A. |authorlink= Richard A.

After the disappearance of Deathwing and the deaths of Nefarian and Onyxia, Sinestra reemerged hoping to continue her family's plan of creating a superior dragonflight to rule over Azeroth. Gathering up what shards of the [[Demon Soul]] she could find and [[Balacgos's Bane]], Sinestra used these relics, along with the eggs of various flights she had collected over the centuries and the captured nether dragon [[Zzeraku]], to create the [[twilight dragonflight]]. One of the first of these new twilight dragons was [[Dargonax]], whom she considered to be her child. Her old nemesis Korialstrasz, along with others such as Zzeraku, the blue dragon [[Kalecgos]], the wizard [[Rhonin]], [[Vereesa Windrunner]], and the draenei priestess [[Iridi]], put a stop to her operation. When Dargonax's already unstable powers finally destabilized, he burned away, taking his "mother" with him. Korialstrasz believed that Sintharia's last, angered glance may have been at him.<ref>{{ref book |author= Knaak, Richard A. |authorlink= Richard A.

After Neltharion's madness overtook him and the rest of the black dragonflight, the newly disfigured Deathwing attempted to mate with his consorts, causing Sintharia a great deal of pain and leaving behind scars and burn marks. Sintharia was the only mate known to have survived.

Approximately five hundred years prior to the opening of the Dark Portal, Sintharia attempted to bring down the Kirin Tor with a curse that left the wizards unable to use their magic. Her scheme was foiled in part by Korialstrasz, consort to Alexstrasza, and when Sintharia was defeated, most believed her to be dead. She survived, however, and forsook her mate and children, taking on the guise of Lady Sinestra, a name she came to use as a dragon as well.[1]

Dragonmaw Enforcer says: Yes... Yes we move now... Please no hurt us...
Lady Sinestra smiles.
Lady Sinestra says: I thought you would see it my way...
Lady Sinestra says: Overlord Mor'ghor, I presume... A pleasure to finally make your acquaintance. I am Lady Sinestra.
Overlord Mor'ghor says: I will not drag this out any further than it needs, Lady Sinestra. You have bent my ear, now tell me what it is that you want from the Dragonmaw.
Lady Sinestra says: You have no doubt heard about Nefarian's failures on Azeroth... While he has fallen, the experiment continues. My master... He continues the work that his progeny began.
