All Nerub-ar Palace Bosses Detailed

We are just going to cut to the chase right now and share the official descriptions of each boss. You’ll also find which which these bosses belong too (there are three wings) for those who plan on jumping into Raid Finder.

Wing 1 is called The Skittering Battlements, Wing 2 is Secrets of Nerub-ar Palace, and Wing 3 is A Queen’s Fall.

Ulgrax the Devourer (Wing 1)

“Queen Ansurek’s evolutionary experimentation created a number of monstrous guardians for her throne, none more voracious than Ulgrax the Devourer. Driven mad by endless hunger, Ulgrax is now the ravenous protector of Queen Ansurek’s court.”

The Bloodbound Horror (Wing 1)

“In the dark pits below Nerub-ar Palace, the blood of the Old Gods congeals in foul, black pools. The Bloodbound Horror rises from this vile ooze — drawing everything in its path into The Unseeming.”

Sikran, Captain of the Sureki (Wing 1)

“Sikran established himself as an arrogant duelist within Queen Ansurek’s court. Never knowing the cut of an enemy’s blade, Sikran dispatched his rivals one by one and was proclaimed Captain of the Sureki by the queen herself. This indomitable fighter now ensures that any who threaten his queen fall before the throne’s might.”

Rasha’nan (Wing 2)

“Twisted by Queen Ansurek’s experiments, Rasha’nan was transformed from a proud nerubian into a monstrous, winged horror. Trapped within her new form, shattered memories of her former self drive Rasha’nan into an unquenchable rage.”

Broodtwister Ovi’nax (Wing 2)

“Deep within the bowels of the queen’s palace, Broodtwister Ovi’nax conducts abominable experiments with the black blood found in Azj’Kahet. This corpulent horror lumbers through the palace’s cavernous depths, regurgitating inky sludge onto hatchlings to observe its gruesome effects.”

Nexus-Princess Ky’veza (Wing 2)

There’s something seriously strange about Nexus-Princess Ky’veza. Do I smell a twist? (Picture: Blizzard)

“Nexus-Princess Ky’veza arrived at Nerub-ar Palace only recently, quickly establishing herself as a confidant of Queen Ansurek. However, rumors abound within the inner court that she may harbor a dark and deadly secret. If discovered, the princess is prepared to dispatch all witnesses without mercy…”

The Silken Court (Wing 3)

“Scarab Lord Anub’arash and Skeinspinner Takazj are Queen Ansurek’s most trusted advisors. Yet, these two powerful nerubians harbor a hatred for each other that is even more powerful than their loyalty to the throne. While unleashing their considerable strength onto their enemies, each also fights to ensure their counterpart doesn’t survive.”

Queen Ansurek (Wing 3)

“After a revelation of traitors in her court, Queen Ansurek decides she must eradicate the palace’s invaders herself. However, paranoia over whom she can trust gnaws at her psyche. With her allies dwindling, Queen Ansurek may delve into dark powers to attain victory, even if that means her most loyal soldiers become her next meal.”
