Celebras

Celebras is the son of Remulos and is a Keeper of the Grove, like his father. Cavindra calls Celebras her brother.

After Celebras's uncle Zaetar was killed by his centaur offspring, Zaetar's spirit was held prisoner by his mate, Theradras. In an attempt to free his uncle's spirit, Celebras and his dryad sisters entered Maraudon. However, the corruption that had spread through the caverns soon overcame them. Celebras the Cursed now wanders blindly inside, cursed by corruption.

Once he is killed by the adventurers of the Alliance and Horde, he is redeemed and appears as Celebras the Redeemed.

 * The Scepter of Celebras (quest)

Group Strategy
Have the tank charge Celebras and immediately use Thunder Clap or Demoralizing Shout. This will cause the initial adds to focus on the tank and will prevent them from running after the healer. Any additional adds should be immediately picked up with Demoralizing Shout. His casts are interruptible with Kick, Counterspell, Wind Shear, etc. Kill Celebras first, then AoE the remaining adds.

Solo Strategy - Rogue
He is soloable for a single rogue if you use the right tactics. Note that he spawns loads of adds, so you have to kill him "fast". As a combat rogue, start with Blade Flurry and Adrenaline Rush to remove the first few adds and pump in damage. When your health starts to get low, pop in a health potion, and keep Evasion until your health is near 30% because he will spawn more and more adds. When he dies, Vanish and move to the side to heal, then finish off the adds that are left.

Solo Strategy - Hunter
He can also be soloed by a hunter and his pet. Send your pet at Celebras and burn him down quickly. If your pet is being damaged too quickly by the adds, use multi-shot to pull some of them off and use freezing trap on one of them, then pop Deterrence if you have it. So long as you use rapid fire and all of your burst damage shots, you should finish Celebras off before you're in too much trouble. After you kill him, feign death and wait for the adds to kill your pet, then despawn.
