High Botanist Tel'arn
Official Overview (Blizzard)
High Botanist Tel'arn uses Arcane, Nature, and Solar magic to defend his garden. When he reaches 75% and 50% health remaining he divides his energy, creating empowered forms that focus in a particular school of magic. This division removes High Botanist Tel'arn's access to that school of magic, but the empowered form gains new abilities.
