Lore

Blackrock Mountain

Vaelastrasz was once one of the good guys - a happy-go-lucky red dragon. Victor Nefarius used dark magic to corrupt him, forcing the ferocious red dragon to serve the Lord of Blackwing Lair against his will.

World of Warcraft

"Ah, the heroes, you are persistent aren't you? Your ally here attempted to match his power against mine - and paid the price. Now he shall serve me...by slaughtering you. Get up little red wyrm...and destroy them!" - Lord Victor Nefarius

Vaelastrasz is a member of the Dragonqueen Alexstrasza's red dragonflight who fought against - and became enslaved by - the vile Nefarian, son of Deathwing, master of the black and chromatic dragonflights. He resides in Nefarian's citadel of Blackwing Lair and is the second boss of the raid, after Razorgore the Untamed.

Vaelastrasz is a red dragon. He is also known as Vaelan when he is in human form. He is initially a friendly NPC to the player, but eventually becomes a foe. In the WoW story, Vaelastrasz (commonly referred to as Vael) has sworn to hunt Nefarian and the black dragonflight until the end of his days.
