Vithrelnaak is a dragon whose name means "Serpent-Domination-Eat" in the Dragon Language.[1][2]
Little is known of Vithrelnaak's past. At some point, Vithrelnaak was slain by Ulfnir Bone-Skin, a warrior from an old Nord legend. Ulfnif fashioned a powerful armor from the scales of a slain dragon. When Ulfnir died, he was buried with the armor, and his corpse haunted the barrow near Yorgrim's Overlook, killing anyone who tried to take his armor. Centuries later, at some point before 4E 201, Fathrys, a young Bosmer, ventured to his resting place to obtain the armor as a gift for his beloved Zaharia.[3][4] He never returned, as he was slain by the undead Ulfnir.[5][6][7]
In 4E 201, the Last Dragonborn ventured to the ruins, defeated the ancient draugr, and plundered Ulfnir's tomb, taking the armor made from Vithrelnaak's scales for themselves.[7]
As his soul was not devoured by another dovah, Vithrelnaak was not killed permanently and can be raised again.[8][9]
