Shahram is summoned by the Blackblade of Shahram
Blackblade of Shahram is a two-handed sword with a proc that summons the elemental Shahram to fight for you. It drops off of General Drakkisath, the final boss of Upper Blackrock Spire, at an approximative 1% rate.
Background
The Blackblade of Shahram is a large charcoal-black scimitar crafted entirely of dark iron and inscribed with draconic runes of power. Legend says Nefarian crafted the weapon in his human guise as Victor Nefarius, using the forges of the Blackhand orcs. He crafted it especially for Drakkisath. While held, it confers complete immunity to energy drain and ability damage. The weapon binds to its wielder’s hand when wielded. Once per day, the wielder can invoke the Blackblade’s summoning power, calling forth Shahram, a fiery destroyer who serves the wielder unerringly. Shahram is bound to the blade and cannot resist the owner’s commands, but otherwise loathes its servitude and does everything within its power to break free. Unfortunately, his freedom requires the destruction of the Blackblade - a daunting task for any artifact.[1]
