Biography[]

WoW Icon 16x16 This section concerns content exclusive to World of Warcraft.

Lord Bolvar was as stalwart and loyal of a soldier as they come, perhaps to a fault. While he did his best to look after Stormwind’s interests, he seemed to have fallen under the charm of the alluring Lady Katrana Prestor, much like many others in the kingdom. By deferring to her judgment, he had allowed for some crucial gaps in the defenses of human-controlled territory. He was one of the few who was aware that the true king of Stormwind, Varian Wrynn, was missing (and probably alive). This was one of the justifications for keeping most of Stormwind’s army centralized; Katrana had convinced Bolvar that the boy King, Anduin, would be the next target of whoever captured or killed the real King on his diplomatic mission. It was suspected that Varian was captured because his trip to Theramore signified an effort to make peace with the Horde, and a number of forces wished the fighting between the Alliance and the Horde to continue.[3]

Patch changes[]

  • Patch 1.7.0 (patch date:2005-09-22): Racial "Leaders" have been strengthened, and are now worth slightly less honor. 
  • Patch 1.5.0 (patch date:2005-06-07):
    • Highlord Bolvar Fordragon should no longer despawn when "The Great Masquerade" is activated.
    • Highlord Bolvar Fordragon is once again the Stormwind faction leader. 
  • Patch 1.4.1 (patch date:2005-05-05): Archbishop Benedictus staged a temporary coup, and has taken the title of NPC leader of Stormwind City from Highlord Bolvar! Horde seeking to take out the leader of Stormwind should focus their efforts on Archbishop Benedictus for the duration. These changes will remain until the next content patch, when Highlord Bolvar reclaims his rightful throne:
    • Highlord Bolvar should be respawning between 5 and 8 minutes.
    • Bolvar will give no contribution points.
