Icewind Dale Hints
Wow, an Umber Hulk is actually talking to me.
1 of 7: Yep. Listen to his story.
2 of 7: He'll eventually ask you to kill Krilag, the Orog leader on this level.
3 of 7: Krilag can be found a little ways east, and to the south of where you are now.
4 of 7: Once you find him, ask him for his badge, but being the usual impolite monster, he and his cronies will all attack you.
5 of 7: Make short work of them, and take Krilag's Badge, along with a very nice two-handed sword.
6 of 7: Go back to Saablik the Umber Hulk, and he'll fill you in a bit more, telling you that you'll have to find six of these badges to meet the final bad guy. He'll then leave.
7 of 7: Once he's gone, you'll be able to keep the badge, which you'll need for later.
