Objectives

Return to Nimboya at Grom'gol Base Camp and show him your Lashtail Hatchling's new skull.

Description

Your pet raptor seems to have found a new toy: a skull, from a nearby troll skull pile.

What sets this skull apart from the rest is beyond you, but for some reason, she won't put it down.

Nimboya at Grom'gol Base Camp seems to be somewhat of a skull expert, judging by the skull piles he keeps. Maybe he'll have some idea what makes this one so special.

Completion

What do we have here? A young raptor, and her pet <race>. Hah!

More importantly, what is that skull you have there? This was no ordinary troll. He was big...

... and strong, too. Let's see what we can do with this one.

Don't go anywhere.

Rewards

None.

Notes

This quest becomes available while doing the quests Quest:The Defense of Grom'gol: Trollish Thievery, Quest:Hunt for Yenniku and Quest:Bloodscalp Insight (Horde). Ohgan'aka runs to a pile of skulls and grabs one of them.

-'''Blackblade of Shahram''' is a two-handed sword with a proc that summons the elemental [[Shahram]] to fight for you. It drops off of [[General Drakkisath]], the final boss of [[Upper Blackrock Spire]], at an approximative 1% rate.
-==Background==
+==Objectives==
+Return to [[Nimboya]] at [[Grom'gol Base Camp]] and show him your Lashtail Hatchling's new skull.
-The ''Blackblade of Shahram'' is a large charcoal-black scimitar crafted entirely of dark iron and inscribed with draconic runes of power. Legend says Nefarian crafted the weapon in his human guise as Victor Nefarius, using the forges of the Blackhand orcs. He crafted it especially for Drakkisath. While held, it confers complete immunity to energy drain and ability damage. The weapon binds to its wielder’s hand when wielded. Once per day, the wielder can invoke the Blackblade’s summoning power, calling forth Shahram, a fiery destroyer who serves the wielder unerringly. [[Shahram]] is bound to the blade and cannot resist the owner’s commands, but otherwise loathes its servitude and does everything within its power to break free. Unfortunately, his freedom requires the destruction of the Blackblade - a daunting task for any artifact.{{Cite|MG|182}}
