Lieutenant Benedict is a human found in Tiragarde Keep in Durotar. Daelin Proudmoore's former second in command,<ref>Admiral Proudmoore's Orders</ref> Benedict now rules over the tiny parcel of land and leads the remaining Kul Tiras sailors in Durotar. He and Watch Commander Zalaphil have been dispatched to retake the keep and guard it from the orcs who wish to finish tearing it down. Gar'Thok at Razor Hill is one such orc.

Benedict's Chest contained an Aged Envelope which detailed orders from the deceased Admiral. He was there to finish what Daelin started, that is invade Durotar and kill all the orcs. Another Kul Tiran fleet is expected, namely that of Lieutenant Alverold who has returned from his expedition and established the outpost of Anchor's Edge to the south of the Echo Isles.

Abilities

Defensive Stance — Assumes a defensive stance that generates rage when the warrior is hit, as well as reducing rage decay while the warrior is out of combat. Lasts 3 min.
Improved Blocking— Increases the caster's chance to block by 55% for 6 sec.
Shield Bash — Bash the target with your shield dazing them and interrupting spellcasting, which prevents any spell in that school from being cast for 6 sec.

Objective of

Vanquish the Betrayers

Loot

Benedict's Key (unlocks Benedict's Chest)

Notes

Like Benedict from Warcraft III, his name is probably a reference to {{#ifeq:-||File:ElinkIcon-wikipedia.png }}Benedict Arnold, a famous turncoat from the American Revolution. The quest name "Vanquish the Betrayers" supports this.
Benedict and the other NPCs in the Tiragarde Keep were originally affiliated with the Stormwind faction for the Alliance players, likely done for gameplay purposes. The Kul Tiras faction was not added to Turtle WoW until patch 1.16.1, but the Tiragarde NPCs were not updated to use the Kul Tiras faction until Patch 1.17.0.

Patch changes

File:Expansion logo mysteriesofazeroth.png Hotfix (2023-10-07): Faction changed from Stormwind to Kul Tiras.
