Adventure Guide Entry

The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Ingvar the Plunderer encounter in Utgarde Keep.

Ingvar's brute strength is legendary even among the vrykul. Rumor has it that he once bested King Ymiron in a brawl. The truth is unknown, but purveyors of that tale usually don't live for a retelling. Ingvar has promised the Lich King that he'll use all measures of brutality to hold the keep, a promise that he dare not break.
