Dr. Terrible

Last wiki revision 2023-04-24

Dr. Terrible was a mad scientist in the Underhalls in Icecrown, more specific in the Hall of Horrors. He was the author of Dr. Terrible's "Building a Better Flesh Giant", and carried out experiments on vargul parts in order to build a powerful Flesh Giants. He created the Flesh Giant Nergeld and wantsed to create an army of these things. However, the adventurer intervened and killed him by using his own creation against him.

Apprentice Osterkilgr drops Dr. Terrible's "Building a Better Flesh Giant", that starts this quest. You then ride the prototype flesh giant until Dr. Terrible comes along to try and stop you.

  • The name "Dr. Terrible" appears in at least one TV show (from 2001). However, the Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog musical web miniseries was being produced and published in mid 2008, shortly before the WotLK expansion was released. It is possible that this name was inspired by the series.
  • He appears to do an evil laugh upon killing a player.
  • Note that if another player aggros him and is killed while you ride Nergeld, it will annoyingly cause Nergeld to die and reset the encounter.
