Legendary varanjar warchief.
(Pronounciation: Hal-Gar)
- Halgar was the varanjar hero who rallied the varanjar and hurskovar giants together against orc warlord Karujin's invasion of Thestra.
- In his effort to recruit the lesser giants, Halgar had to challenge their king, Rotham, to a duel. Rotham had never lost a fight.
- Halgar could not defeat Rotham, but even after blow after bone-shattering blow Halgar kept getting back up. Rotham was impressed with Halgar's refusal to submit. Rather than kill the tenacious varanjar hero, Rotham declared a draw and agreed to aid the varanjar against Karujin.
- Halgar was slain in the orc and goblin wars, but his spirit is said to sit at the table of Vothdar himself within the halls of glory.
