Cast spell if target is not dead, else on target2.

Hello.
How can I make a macro that casts Fel Flame on target1, but if target1 is dead I want it to cast Fel Flame on target2. And if target2 is dead cast Fel Flame on target3.
And I want this for five different targets.

I have been looking for something like this for 2 hours now and have gotten nowhere, any help would be approciated.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot!

However I can't seem to get it to work.
This is what I modified it to:

/cast [@Shakes O'Breen,nodead][@First Mate Nilzlix,nodead][@Captain Steelgut,nodead][@Doctor Draxlegauge,nodead][@Deckhand Moishe,nodead][] Fel Flame

Should that work?
It doesn't do anything for me at all, no errors either. :s

You won't be able to use NPC names. Only player names if they're in your group or target identifiers (target / focus / etc).

/target NPC works fine, but you can shorten your macro quite a bit.
Code:
/tar [dead][noexists] Shakes O'Breen
/tar [dead][noexists] First Mate Nilzlix
/tar [dead][noexists] Captain Steelgut
/tar [dead][noexists] Doctor Draxlegauge
/tar [dead][noexists] Deckhand Moishe
/cast [harm] Fel Flame
