Bruenor Battlehammer is a dwarf that appears in several of R.A. Salvatore’s novels, most notably in The Icewind Dale Trilogy, The Dark Elf Trilogy, The Legacy of the Drow series, and The Paths of Darkness series.
Bruenor is the adoptive father of Catti-brie and Wulfgar, as well as a close friend of Drizzt Do’Urden, the drow protagonist of many of Salvatore’s novels.
Bruenor is known for his fierce loyalty to his friends and family, his deep sense of honor, and his craftsmanship as a smith. He is often depicted as a hardy and tough warrior, with a gruff exterior but a heart of gold.
Throughout the series, Bruenor leads his friends through numerous adventures, battles formidable foes, and plays a crucial role in the political and military affairs of the North.
One of Bruenor’s most notable achievements is his quest to reclaim Mithral Hall, his ancestral home, from the clutches of the shadow dragon Shimmergloom and its duergar allies.
