Bronjahm Guide
Bronjahm in The Forge of Souls: a journal-derived encounter reference quoted from the Adventure Guide, not a strategy guide. Database holds the raw abilities and the full loot table.
Background
Adventure Guide says
Bronjahm has served the Cult of the Damned from the early days. Kel'Thuzad himself taught Bronjahm the value of souls and how to grind them down to fuel the engines of the Scourge. He can corrupt the souls of his foes and tear them out piece by piece, making him the ideal guardian for the Lich King's Forge of Souls.
