Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer

Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer is a talented Nord animal trainer found in Nikolvara's Kennel. She has a particular talent in training durzogs which has been attributed to her special whistle. Some of her employees think she may be touched, and prefers the company of durzogs to people.

A rival trainer, Arushna, has employed the Dragonstar Caravan Company to kill Nikolvara and obtain some of the special feed she uses for the durzogs. Like other delve bosses in Wrothgar, Nikolvara may drop an Auric Tusk.

Skills and Abilities

Nikolvara uses all of the pet ranger class abilities, with a modified version where she summons durzogs and can boost them in unique ways:

Quick Shot

A basic ranged attack that does minor physical damage.

Roll Dodge

The enemy may perform a roll dodge to avoid attacks.

Trap Beast

Places a trap which roots the creature that walks into it. Performing a roll dodge will break the trap.

Call Durzog

When Nikolvara blows her whistle, two Durzog Runts are summoned. Only two durzog runts can be up at a time. If one durzog is killed and Nikolvara has the chance to blow her whistle again, she will summon one durzog to supplement the remaining durzog.

Durzog Feed

When you lower one of her durzogs' health, she throws some durzog feed to them, healing them and enraging them. The durzogs will hit you harder now.

Dialogue

When Nikolvara blows her whistle, two Durzog Runts are summoned. She speaks to them using ambient dialogue.

"Come, my scaly ones!"

"Durzog! on my target"

"Attack, durzog! Attack!"

"Durzog! To me!"

When she empowers her durzogs, she addresses you. This dialogue is subtitled.

Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer: "No one hurts my durzog!"

Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer: "Bite harder, my pets!"

Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer: "You'll find my durzog to be well-trained."

Nikolvara the Durzog Trainer: "Rip them apart!"

Notes

• Her name was "Eofryd Durzog-Whistler" while Orsinium was still in development, which was in progress before Update 6 released. This line of journal text was removed from the text files for Update 7: "I encountered a traveling Dunmer on the roads of Wrothgar who told me he was looking for a beastmaster named Eofryd, who is in possession of a whistle that can tame durzogs. I told him I would try to get the whistle for him."
