[[Image:Npc-nihlathak.jpg|frame]]Nihlathak is an NPC found in Harrogath, the town of Act five. (He is also [[Nihlathak|a monster]], when he turns traitor halfway through the act.) Nihlathak is the lone surviving elder of the Barbarian high council, and has been driven nearly to madness by his worries about his people and his grief at the many deaths he has witnessed. He is embittered and dour, and his dialogues are far from welcoming.
Nihlathak serves as a merchant when characters first arrive, offering a gambling service. He vanishes from town when once your character reaches the third quest becomes active[[Frozen River]] level, and does wherein Anya is imprisoned. He is not returnseen again as an NPC, but only [[Nihlathak|as a monster]] at the conclusion of the fourth quest. [[Anya]] takes over his role as the gambling NPC when she returns to town upon completion of the fourth quest.
'''Return'''
:''What are you still doing here? I thought you were going off to die. '':''Go...Be quick about it.''
'''Completion'''
:''Ending the siege does not earn immediate respect, outsider. '':''Respect only comes with sacrifice -- something I'm sure you know nothing of.''
===[[Rescue on Mount Arreat]]===
'''After Activation'''
:''You have proven you can take life, warrior, but can you save it as well?''
'''Return'''
:''Did you ever stop to think why these demons are capturing Qual-Kehk's men? Why they are attacking us? Have you considered what Baal wants with the mountain? '':''No. You've not. You have no idea what you are dealing with.''
'''Completion'''
:''So. You brought the lost sheep home to the shepherd. Well done.''
===[[Prison of Ice]]===
'''After Activation'''
:''Anya! Who have you been talking to? Likely it was that meddling Malah. '':''Well, I'll tell you what really happened. Anya came to me for guidance, after receiving a vision that her mother and younger brother were trapped in the lands beyond the Ice Caves. She had decided to go rescue them. '':''I told her that her quest was a foolish one and that she would be safer staying within the city walls. However, she is a willful girl and would not listen to me. '':''The next morning, she was gone. No one is more distraught than I over losing her. '':''However, if you feel the need to be Malah's errand child, I won't try to stop you.''
'''Return'''
:''Look, I've told you! She's dead! If you knew what was good for you, you'd concentrate your efforts on saving Harrogath -- not on lost causes like Anya.''
