Heafstaag was the hereditary king of the Tribe of the Elk of Icewind Dale in the mid–14th century DR.[2]

Description[]

Heafstaag bore many wounds from his time on the harsh tundra. He had only one eye, with the other lost to a reindeer's antler, and his left hand was rendered useless after an attack by a polar bear.[2]

He hated wizards, but nonetheless allied with Akar Kessel.[2]

History[]

Heafstaag was the son of Hrothulf the Strong and grandson of Angaar the Brave. His mother was a woman from Luskan who had been captured as a child during a caravan raid and who had been raised by the Tribe of the Elk.[2]

In the Year of the Crown, 1351 DR, Heafstaag, his tribe of barbarians, and his allies tried but failed to conquer the settlement of Termalaine in their massive sweep of the Ten-Towns. Heafstaag was seriously wounded by Drizzt in the battle.[3] His standard bearer at the time was Wulfgar.[4]

When Akar Kessel fought against the Ten Towns in the Year of the Worm, 1356 DR, Heafstaag's tribe would have followed Kessel to battle but Wulfgar claimed the throne using the Right of Challenge and killed Heafstaag beforehand.[2]
