UnverifiedThis is Classic's Taerar. WoW Forever's client still has the boss's abilities and quests, but Blizzard hasn't confirmed the boss for WoW Forever, so its location, loot and fight may differ.
Overview
Ysera set the mightiest of her green dragons to guard the four portals between Azeroth and the Emerald Dream. The Nightmare has corrupted them, and Taerar now emerges at one of the groves, attacking anyone nearby.
Location
One of the four Emerald Dream portals: Duskwood (Twilight Grove), Ashenvale (Bough Shadow), Feralas (Dream Bough) and The Hinterlands (Seradane).

Abilities
Only Taerar

Arcane Blast
Arcane damage that knocks the target back.

Bellowing Roar
Fears everyone nearby for 4 seconds, sometimes into the Dream Fog.

Summon Shade of Taerar
At 75%, 50% and 25% health: Taerar banishes himself and three Shades of Taerar attack. He returns when they die or after a while.
All four dragons

Noxious Breath
Nature damage in front of the dragon and a 30-second poison that stacks, dealing damage and adding 10 seconds to the victim's ability cooldowns.

Seeping Fog
Clouds of Dream Fog drift after random players and put anyone they touch to sleep.

Tail Sweep
Damages and knocks back everyone in a cone behind the dragon.

Mark of Nature
Players who die to the dragon are marked for 15 minutes. Rejoining the fight while marked puts them to sleep for two minutes.
Tactics
- When he banishes himself, kill the three Shades of Taerar quickly. They breathe acid and leave poison clouds.
- Watch where the Dream Fog is before each Bellowing Roar: the fear can send players into it.
- Tank the dragon facing away from the raid, and keep everyone away from its tail.
- Ranged players and healers spread out at range so one Dream Fog cloud can't catch several of them.
- Bring a second tank: Noxious Breath slows the main tank's cooldowns, and a sleeping tank needs cover. Only the tanks should take the breath.
- The dragons are immune to Nature damage.
