Magus Tirth is a human mage.

Before the Cataclysm, he was a chicken vendor located at the Mirage Raceway in Thousand Needles. He wrote the book Inv misc book 01 [Rituals of Power], but sold it due to gambling debts to a member of the Scarlet Crusade. Magus spends his time trying to torture "Plucky".

His inability to stop the Cataclysm from flooding the Thousand Needles has caused him to go insane and become Mad Magus Tirth. He has recaptured "Plucky" Johnson, and placed the blame of the Cataclysm on his former apprentice. They are both located in Tirth's Haunt. Adventurers of the Horde and Alliance killed him and extracted his soul which was used to bring back Tony Two-Tusk.

Quotes[]

Stand still you worthless chicken!
Don't resist... I'm only trying to change you back into a man.
Dance, Johnson, dance!
I could have stopped the sea if not for your incessant clucking!
I know what I'm having for dinner tonight and it rhymes with "Sucky"!
What shall it be this time: fire or frost? Hmm?
Oh, and I'll be taking my Ancona chickens back, thank you!
I'll pluck, Johnson!

When "Plucky" Johnson transforms back into a human to sell to players Tirth will also yell out a bit of dialouge:

Hey! Why aren't you polymorphed? Enjoy it while it lasts, "Plucky"!
I better get a cut of those sales! Better yet, I'll just fry you up and take all of the profit for myself.
Johnson, tell your friend to move along. It's past time for your demise.
Does anyone hear that voice? Make it stop!
Bored now.
Would you hurry it up over there? I don't have all day!
