The name "Dr. Terrible" appears in at least one TV show (from 2001). However, the Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog musical web miniseries was being produced and published in mid 2008, shortly before the WotLK expansion was released. It is possible that this name was inspired by the series.
He appears to do an evil laugh upon killing a player.
Note that if another player aggros him and is killed while you ride Nergeld, it will annoyingly cause Nergeld to die and reset the encounter.
