Adventure Guide Entry

The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Warchief Kargath Bladefist encounter in The Shattered Halls.

Chieftain of the Shattered Hand clan and warchief of the Fel Horde, Kargath is one of the greatest orcish heroes in recent memory. Over the years, he has severed both of his hands and replaced them with weapons of war, a bloody ritual unique to his clan. The joy he derives from inflicting pain on both others and himself is legendary among the orcs. As the Fel Horde's tyrannical ruler, he has channeled his ruthlessness and ferocity into forging an unstoppable army within the iron walls of Hellfire Citadel.
