Dimensius the All-Devouring

Dimensius the All-Devouring is a powerful void lord who manifested in the physical universe and destroyed the ethereal homeworld of K'aresh.

Biography
How the Voidlord found K'aresh is still hotly debated among the surviving ethereals, but the effects of his coming were unmistakable: he opened countless gateways into the Void and the Twisting Nether around the planet, bathing K'aresh in arcane and dark energies. One of the mortal races hastily attempted to construct magical barriers around its cities, but although the dark energies were blocked, the unimpeded flood of arcane energy tore away the mortals' corporeal shells and infused their souls with enough energy to transform them into ethereals. This altered state proved to be a blessing in disguise, however, as their enhanced minds and magical abilities allowed the ethereals to fight Dimensius and his limited forces to a standstill. Over the years, however, Dimensius eventually grew powerful enough to summon armies of fellow void creatures, forcing the ethereals to flee into the Twisting Nether. Pandemonius served Dimensius as one of his commanders during the assault on K'aresh.

The Ethereum, a faction of ethereals that were once the ruling class on K'aresh, vowed vengeance upon Dimensius, and have been tracking it ever since.

Dimensius at some point also attacked a world named Karkora. The naaru T'uure arrived to defend its inhabitants and expended its own life force to save Karkora's people. It shattered into fragments, releasing a massive holy nova that washed away the void and banished Dimensius from the world.

The Burning Crusade
Dimensius taunted the Alliance and Horde adventurers when they finish the quest On Nethery Wings.

Dimensius arrived in the exploded ruins of Manaforge Ultris in Netherstorm, where he was defeated by the ethereals of the Protectorate and adventurers.

Strategy
Speak to Captain Saeed, and the quest will begin. you are escorted up to Manaforge Ultris by Saeed and a large platoon of Protectorate Ethereals. Along the way, any trash mobs outside will attack, but will be downed quickly and with ease. Speak to Saeed again outside the forge to start the battle. The fight itself is not complicated, just difficult. Dimensius is immobile, but extremely dangerous. The red circle in the center of the room marks his melee range. He likes to cast Shadow Spiral, and will occasionally uses Shadow Vault. At about half health, he will summon his Spawn of Dimensius, and things begin to get nasty for the Platoon. Once the Spawns are destroyed, The fight returns to normal. At that point, it's just a matter of kill or be killed.

A strategy for healers is to simply keep Saeed healed and allow him to tank. Also, Dimensius cannot reach you in the hallway, being immobile. This is a convenient exploit for far-ranged classes. Buff the platoon members, as well as the party, before beginning the fight, to make things easier.
