Sire Denathrius

Sire Denathrius, the Master, is the creator and the former leader of the realm of Revendreth and its inhabitants, the venthyr people, which he ruled from Castle Nathria. Calculating and methodical, Denathrius is ancient beyond measure and one of the most powerful beings in all the Shadowlands. He created the venthyr in his likeness, forging them from the souls of the redeemed.[5] The first venthyr were born directly from Denathrius' will, such as Prince Renathal[1] who considers him his father.[6][7] He is also the creator of the Nathrezim, cruel and cunning beings with the purpose to be the greatest spies and infiltrators in all of reality, in order to spread the influence of Death throughout the cosmos.[8]

In the midst of a rebellion caused by the anima drought that's swept over the Shadowlands, rumors suggested that Denathrius may no longer be fit for the role of Master of Revendreth. Crowning a new Sire could return the plane to its former glory, or leave it mired in the same decadence and sin it is charged with cleansing.[9] Consequently, Denathrius beseeched Azeroth's champions to help him quell the rebellion led by Prince Renathal, which was threatened to destroy the venthyr way of life, but not all was as Denathrius claimed.[1]

In truth, Denathrius has been corrupted by the very sins Revendreth swore to punish. Cooperating with Zovaal the Jailer, he wished to rule all the Shadowlands and to free the Jailer from his bonds by channeling massive amounts of anima into the Maw. Although he accomplished his plan, he was later defeated by the Maw Walkers in his own castle, while his essence was absorbed by his sentient blade Remornia. At Dawnkeep, Denathrius was placed under the watch of the naaru Z'rali to fulfill his repentance, until he was freed by the nathrezim who infiltrated Revendreth.

As the one behind the drought of anima that plagues the Shadowlands, he is one of the expansion's secondary antagonists and the final boss of Castle Nathria.
