With much thanks to Geffin for showing me the ropes, and much thanks to Wisby for dropping by to heal me and buff me, Friday night I stole the "Stained parchment bottom" from the rogue guild-master within Neriak. During the attempts, amazingly I aggroed him only once. I was standing next to the zone line when it happened and immediately backed through. Even so, I went from my 1250 hit points when next to him to under 200 when I finished zoning! Tani hits hard and fast! Even without his backstab!

Sounds like he was pulled to the zone line and remained there, just backing up a smidge whenever aggroed.
