Millhouse Manastorm is a wily gnome mage of questionable morals, that is ready to light someone up at the slightest provocation.[1]
He first appeared as a prisoner trapped in the Arcatraz wing of Tempest Keep. In order to acquire [The Tempest Key], formerly required to unlock The Eye wing of Tempest Keep, players must enter Arcatraz on heroic mode, and make sure that Millhouse survives until the death of Harbinger Skyriss. He is released during the second wave of the Harbinger Skyriss encounter in the Arcatraz. His rescue was also required part of Quest:Trial of the Naaru: Tenacity.
Later on, Manastorm appeared scheming with the Twilight's Hammer in Deepholm and yet later in the Brawler's Guild in Stormwind and Orgrimmar as an opponent.
If the player upgrades an inn to Level 2 at their Tier 2 garrison on Draenor, Manastorm will show up with a dungeon quest, unlocking him as a follower.
Background
Trapped in Arcatraz
While the Arcatraz is a place of imprisonment for dangerous beings the Naaru encountered, Millhouse, in fact, was merely a victim of circumstance - A stowaway who was in the wrong Naaru vessel at the wrong time. It is unknown how he actually got to a Naaru vessel but it's quite possible that his curiosity over the mysterious Naaru and his knowledge of the Arcane played a major part in his entry.
In combat, he appears to be a jack of all trades, using Improved Frostbolts, [Ice Block], [Pyroblast] and [Improved Arcane Missiles]. Of course, most elite NPC's have grown beyond the simple boundaries of talent specs, and Millhouse is no different.
Cataclysm
Millhouse returned in Cataclysm as a member of the Twilight's Hammer cult. It was perhaps the proximity near the harbringer that led to his joining to the cult.[2] He was involved in their operations in Deepholm, and appeared numerous times in the Stonecore. He had apparently acquired a new spell called "Impending Doooooom!", but its effects were unknown as he was interrupted by the arrival of Corborus. He and his Twilight's Hammer loyalists were knocked over the precipice, and was suspected to have been killed in the impact.
Mists of Pandaria
Having survived, he joined the Brawler's Guild as a gladiator. Apparently, the Stonecore was merely a setback.
Warlords of Draenor
If the player has a Level 2 inn, which becomes available beginning with their Tier 2 garrison, Manastorm will show up on the second floor as a quest giver. After quickly assuring the player that he's changed, he asks for help in collecting a piece of equipment for a humanitarian project he's working on. After helping him out, he joins the growing fort as a follower.

Millhouse's presence in Deepholm as a member of the Twilight's Hammer could be a product of his extended stay in the Arcatraz next to Harbinger Skyriss, who's presence may have had severe consequences on his mind, and he began to hear the voice of the Old Gods. It is unlikely that he was already a member prior to his entrapment, as he would have most likely assisted Skyriss had he been a Twilight's Hammer member.
