Taretha Foxton was a childhood friend of Thrall the Orc Warchief, in the novelization Lord of the Clans. When Thrall was a baby, Taretha’s mother was given the duty of nursing and caring for him until he was old enough to be trained. Taretha looked on him as a little baby brother, and while Thrall was training, Taretha was given the duty of carrying books on strategy and military history to Thrall’s cell. She used the opportunity to converse with him through letters hidden in the pages of the books, and would also give him additional books on subjects such as Art. When Thrall decided to escape from Durnholde, Taretha arranged for a distraction to allow him to escape, and even gathered supplies for him. Taretha died after the man who took her as his mistress, General Aedelas Blackmoore, ordered her execution for helping Thrall, in an attempt to break his will. Thrall, who was instead enraged by her death, avenged Taretha, killing Blackmoore during the siege of Durnholde, and razing the keep to the ground. Taretha’s love and compassion was a powerful influence on the young Warchief, and is often credited with leading him into his friendship with Jaina Proudmoore in the Third War and afterwards.

In World of Warcraft, Horde agents are dispatched from Tarren Mill to assassinate Lord Aliden Perenolde, leader of the Syndicate in Alterac, and regain Taretha’s pendant – a crescent moon on a silver chain – from Perenolde’s mistress, Elysa.

Tagar Spinebreaker was the leader of the cannibalistic Bonechewer Clan. Tagar Spinebreaker garbs himself in the innards of his enemies; those which he does not devour himself. Tagar is ruthless and bloodthirsty, craving only the heat of battle above all else. The Bonechewers stayed in Draenor during the First Crossing, but when the Second Crossing was imminent, the Bonechewers were attacked by the Shadow Moon Clan, for one of their captains possessed the Skull of Gul’dan as a trophy. Their camp was obliterated and the skull reclaimed. Soon after, Tagar, along with Fenris of the Thunderlords, decided to sojourn into Azeroth, rising to the challenge and succeeding where their predecessors failed. Ner’zhul refused their suggestions, and their Clans were slaughtered.

The former teacher of the schoolhouse in Moonbrook, Westfall, Stalvan was enlisted as a private tutor of a wealthy family living near the Eastvale Logging Camp in Elwynn Forest. One of his pupils, a fair-looking young woman, drove him mad with love. When she unexpectedly chose a suitor after all of her “come-ons” to Stalvan, he went mad with jealousy and grief. Saying “that’s just my tutor, old uncle Stalvan” didn’t help things either, as she was only a few years younger than him. He proceeded in murdering her, her young suitor, and many other nobles in his blind rage. He wandered, blind with rage – eventually contracting the plague of undeath. He lives in a shack in northeastern Duskwood. World of Warcraft players can opt to pursue a quest line that results in his death (again).
