This NPC can be killed by players in your group. It's unfortunate and annoying but fear not, he will respawn. I'm unsure of his respawn time, but from personal experience I witnessed my group's hunter kill the watcher when we zoned in and by the time we had finished the dungeon and returned to the beginning he was back up. You can still turn in your quests :)

This NPC can easily be killed by players - and if u do kill him, you can not take his quest...
Really really stupid...

Description
The Ironbark and Warpwood were once the mighty protectors of Eldre'Thalas. Look at how they have fallen! Ultimately, their fate lies at the hands of myself and my fellow Highborne. We were reckless with our power, {race}. But you, you can right the wrongs here! Venture forth and put Tendris Warpwood to rest. He was the mightiest and last defender of this area, and deserves spiritual release. Be wary, for if you do not dispose of the Ironbark Protectors prior to engaging Tendris, he will call them to assist.
