Yngwar is a Sørmirbæren warrior living in isolation from the rest of his clan. In combat he uses sharpened spear coated in Heartbreak Poison and Throwing Nets.
Yngwar is a "boss" character, and on DOMINATING difficulty will appear with 400% of his regular health.
Background
Yngwar comes from the Sørmirbæren village and is well versed in their culture. He is a warrior and traveler who has half of his skin turned to scales, implying that he was outcast due to failing one of their rituals. He appears to be familiar with Sjörsr, who the Ferryman killed using The Shard. While seemingly shunned, he still holds the clan's values, and sees the warrior's way of life as the only proper one, though he questions his faith in the spirit seekers.
Location
Yngwar can be found at the Black Sea Grotto, past the Black Sea Rapids in the northwestern corner of the sea. More specifically, at coordinates A10.
Player Interactions
Yngwar is one of the few Serpentines who the player can speak to without fighting, granted that they behave well enough not to provoke him. They can come to an agreeable conversation by having a spear duel with enough melee skill, using his foreign language through intelligence checks (8 effective Intelligence needed), or assuming a battle stance and successfully intimidating him (100 effective). Afterwards you can attempt to converse by drawing pictures in the sand, and using various phrases and gestures. If you can persuade him, he can draw the Rune Sketch which marks Sjörsr's grave in the Sørmirbæren Graveyard. He may also teach the player about their rituals and way of life. If at any point during the conversation Yngwar is provoked, he will threaten the player and attack if the player doesn't leave. You can however offer him some food to appease him to be able to resume the conversation. If the player wears Rathound Regalia, Yngwar will demand it as tribute instead.
