'''The Cleaner''' is a black level 73 elite demon. Although he looks like a black Dreadlord he appears not to be one.
   
  +
== Abilities ==
'''Saronite''' is a new [[metal]] found in [[Northrend]].
 
  +
He can hit for 4500-5000 on a lvl 70 cloth wearer and is said to be immune to all damage.
   
==Origin==
+
== Source ==
  +
The Cleaner spawns when someone besides the hunter attacks [[Simone the Seductress]] during the level 60 hunter quest {{quest|Stave of the Ancients}}, and proceeds to kill the interloper and the hunter while Simone despawns. He can also be triggered by attacking Simone in her troll form, however you need to have over one player or mob on her aggro table, otherwise she will simply kill you with her Fool's Plight.
Saronite is an [[element]] associated with the [[Old God]] [[Yogg-Saron]]. According to the [[Archivum Console]] in [[Ulduar (instance)|Ulduar]], a powerful acid found within Yogg-Saron is believed to be responsible for the liquefaction of Saronite.
 
   
  +
He also spawns if someone interferes with a priest doing {{quest|The Balance of Light and Shadow}} quest.
[[Borus Ironbender]], the Horde Grand Master Blacksmith trainer in [[Agmar's Hammer]] in the [[Dragonblight]], remarks — from his observations of [[Angrathar the Wrath Gate]] — that he had never seen a metal "breathe" before, and that the only people who seemed to know what this metal was were the [[tuskarr]]. They called it the "Black Blood of Yogg-Saron", and in a quest of the same name ({{questlong|Horde|72|Black Blood of Yogg-Saron}}), Borus sends players to the [[Pit of Narjun]] outside [[Azjol-Nerub]] to collect samples of this metal.
 
   
  +
Easiest way to currently spawn this mob seems to be to pop [[Army of the Dead]] and then aggro one of the demons.
Judging by the fact that most "modern" Scourge [[fortress]]es in Northrend — [[Icecrown Citadel]] itself being the prime example — are constructed of Saronite, it's clear that "Black Blood of Yogg-Saron" is simply another name for this metal.
 
   
  +
It seems that a Cleaner spawns whenever damage is dealt by an outsider source, therefore more than one Cleaner can be spawned at the same time.
From the quest {{Questlong|neutral|74|Pure Evil}}, it is shown exactly how strong and resistant the evil metal is. The Saronite [[ore]] collected was completly unscratched by the attacks from [[Crusade Commander Korfax|Crusade Commander Korfax's]] [[Arcanite Reaper]]. The ore was also completely resistant to the nature magic used against it by [[Rayne]] and [[Rimblat Earthshatter]]. Finally the ore was struck by the powers of the [[Holy Light]] by [[Avenger Metz]], and the ore reacted but seemed to reflect the spell back at everyone in the area or the ore.
 
   
 
== Quotes ==
This would seem to be the main reason the [[Lich King]] choose the use this evil ore to create his fortresses in Icecrown as well as create his warmachines from the metal, allowing them to be resistant to whatever attack was launched against them. Also it is likely that since the Lich King is so powerful, and his undead minions have no will of their own to speak of, they would be resistant to the evil of Yogg-Saron.

===The side effects of Saronite mining===
 
Often, mortals who mine Saronite for prolonged periods of time appear to be driven insane. Indeed, many of the people who have been rescued from the [[Saronite Mines]] tell of hearing strange whispers of unknown origins, attempting to shape their perceptions of those around them. Others became enraged and simply attacked their would-be rescuers at the very suggestion of being taken away from the "Master", while still others yell madly about their mysterious "Master", and attempt to offer their lives to it by hurling themselves down into the deep recesses of the mines.
 
 
Players who spend time in the [[Saronite Mines]] of [[Ymirheim]] in central [[Icecrown]] or [[Whisper Gulch]] in the [[Howling Fjord]] will begin seeing whispers of unknown origin appearing in their chat logs.
 
 
The only beings able to safely wear Saronite are the Scourge.
 
 
It drives any creature that can think on its own into madness, even knights of the Ebon Blade.
 
 
===Uses of Saronite===
 
The major user of saronite is the [[Scourge]], who utilizes this evil metal to its full potential. They have used this metal to power their war machines and construct their master's stronghold, [[Icecrown Citadel]], as well as the ramparts, spires and cathedrals that practically cover the Icecrown region. The Scourge, in the laboratories of the [[Fleshwerks]], have also begun implanting broken shards of saronite into the bodies of ghouls, resulting in much deadlier minions in the Scourge legions. The Lich King has even commissioned the construction of a [[necropolis]], [[Malykriss: The Vile Hold|Malykriss]], which would be made completely of saronite.
 
 
Saronite is also used by both the Scourge and by player characters of the Alliance and Horde to craft armor and weaponry. In the [[Scarlet Enclave]], the skeletal archers led by [[Orithos the Sky Darkener]] used saronite-headed arrows to rain death on the citizens of [[Havenshire]] (and, in {{questlong|neutral|55|Tonight We Dine In Havenshire}}, sends [[death knight]] players to retrieve them). Because of the rarity of the metal outside of Northrend, saronite armor was only given to death knights of [[Acherus: The Ebon Hold|Acherus]] who truly proved themselves in battle against the enemies of the Scourge.
 
 
Grand master [[blacksmith]]s can also make armor and weaponry from saronite, and grand master [[engineer]]s can craft explosives, bullets and arrows.

The Cleaner is a black level 73 elite demon. Although he looks like a black Dreadlord he appears not to be one.

Abilities

He can hit for 4500-5000 on a lvl 70 cloth wearer and is said to be immune to all damage.

Source

The Cleaner spawns when someone besides the hunter attacks Simone the Seductress during the level 60 hunter quest Stave of the Ancients, and proceeds to kill the interloper and the hunter while Simone despawns. He can also be triggered by attacking Simone in her troll form, however you need to have over one player or mob on her aggro table, otherwise she will simply kill you with her Fool's Plight.

He also spawns if someone interferes with a priest doing The Balance of Light and Shadow quest.

Easiest way to currently spawn this mob seems to be to pop Spell deathknight armyofthedead [Army of the Dead] and then aggro one of the demons.

It seems that a Cleaner spawns whenever damage is dealt by an outsider source, therefore more than one Cleaner can be spawned at the same time.
