Karstaag is a unique Special Creature located in Castle Karstaag. The Skaal have lived in peace with the monster for many years, but they have heard nothing from the giant for some time. He resides with the Rieklings, who serve him as their king.

You will meet Karstaag in the Mortrag Glacier, Huntsman's Hall during Hircine's Hunt. He is highly resistant against magical attacks, except for fire, shock and poison damage.

[edit] Notes

• Karstaag has a 5 pts. Regenerate Health, which is canceled after he takes fire damage.
• He has an unusually high Reflect rate (50%), be careful what you hit him with.
• You can sneak up on Karstaag, with a chance of landing an initial critical hit.
• You can get a breather in this fight if you use Calm Creature on him, he'll walk away. This way, you'll also get another chance for a critical.
