Angrathar the Wrathgate



Angrathar the Wrathgate is a barred entrance to Icecrown Citadel and is located in the northwest of Dragonblight. The Wrath Gate is under siege by both Horde and Alliance forces. They have set up the bases of Fordragon Hold, for the Alliance, and Kor'kron Vanguard, for the Horde. Their forces intend to storm into the Citadel. It is commonly here where characters (with the exception of Death Knights) will have their first direct encounter with the Lich King and the "first act" of the expansion will culminate. The Wrath Gate is crafted to look like the Helm of Domination and is made of Saronite, a metal called "Black Blood of Yogg-Saron" by the tuskarr.
