Archmage Ataeric was a level 22 human member of the Kirin Tor in Lordaeron. When the Horde invaded Silverpine Forest, he and the other Ambermill residents shifted Ambermill into a pocket dimension. Horde adventurers are sent to kill him in order to return Ambermill to the Azeroth plane, after which Daschla will raise him and the other magi into undeath. He later participates in the Battle for Silverpine where he kills Loremaster Dibbs and Phin Odelic. The fight with him requires that you kill his minions, rather than fighting him. Killing them will fill his mana bar until he is overloaded and destroys himself.
Loyalties
Despite his passionately pro-Alliance stance, referring to Lordaeron as Alliance land and even yelling for his comrades to flee instead of being turned by the Val'kyr, when this very fate befalls him he changes his attitude completely. He and the other Ambermill residents are seen during the final battle for Silverpine fighting on the Forsaken's side, killing their former comrades. The reason for this sudden change in attitude is unknown.
