Lore
This section uses content from the Warcraft Wiki.Prince Renathal, also known as the Dark Prince, is a venthyr who leads the rebellion from Sinfall in Revendreth against 
Sire Denathrius. Convinced that the Master is behind the anima drought, he rallied a formidable force to lead a rebellion to succeed Sire Denathrius and make the anima flow once more.
In contrast to his prideful father, Renathal is more humble and devoted to Revendreth's original mission. He also appears to enjoy taking chances on gambits that seemingly have very little chance to succeed. Despite his attacks on Castle Nathria and his attempts to unite the Court of Harvesters against Denathrius all initially ending in failure, he refuses to let the Venthyr and the Shadowlands go out without a fight. He describes the war against the Jailer as something that will inevitably end in failure, but claims that there is excitement to be had in battling the inevitable.
Prince Renathal personally refers to Denathrius as father. His blade Vorpalia is sentient like Denathrius's Remornia. He has a pet gargon named Vrednic. The dredger Breakfist was one of the last of Renathal's forces from his first rebellion left in Sinfall. His former home is Darkwall Tower.
