Prior to Patch 2.4
Beginning with the implementation of the Burning Crusade, M'uru was found in Silvermoon City where his energy was being drained for use by the Blood Knights.
M'uru was a hostile level 73 to Horde players, but did not attack and could not be attacked. He was not hostile to Alliance players, however. The blood elves draining him could not be killed (they would remain at one percent health).
In Patch 2.4 and thereafter

In Patch 2.4.0, Kael'thas and his felblood minions captured M'uru from Silvermoon City and took him to Sunwell Plateau. The magisters who were draining him now stand dazed.
Without M'uru, Lady Liadrin was forced to seek out another source of power for the Blood Knights. She speaks to A'dal in Shattrath City, asking for forgiveness for M'uru's imprisonment, and pledging her allegiance to the Shattered Sun Offensive. In that same instant, it is revealed that M'uru's imprisonment was foretold by Velen. M'uru willingly accepted his role in the events that unfolded, knowing that it would lead to the elves' redemption.[1]
Blood elf paladins completing Claiming the Light must now gather remnants of "holy energy" that linger around the magisters, rather than the previous requirement of draining M'uru directly.
M'uru appears as a boss in Sunwell Plateau. He is now a darkened naaru, transforming into Entropius part-way through the encounter.
Captive or Martyr?
Until Patch 2.4, It was not known why M'uru allowed himself to remain a prisoner of the blood elves. See M'uru Speculation for previous discussion on M'uru's imprisonment.
