Frostbrood
The Frostbrood[1][2] are elite frost wyrms raised from the bones of blue dragons at Sindragosa's Fall. They consist of whelps, drakes (vanquishers), and the mighty wyrms themselves. The Scourge raised a few ancient and powerful proto-dragons to become members of the brood as well.[3]
After the Lich King awoke from his long dormancy, he journeyed to Sindragosa's Fall where he raised the ancient dragon Sindragosa, the first consort to Malygos, as a frost wyrm. His final desecration of Sindragosa was to tear the spirits of her lost whelps into undeath in front of her skeletal form, as a final affront to the great dragon,[4][5] and then ordered her to lead the Frostbrood into war.[6]
Later during the conflict, Sindragosa retreated to her lair in the Frostwing Halls of Icecrown Citadel, where she continued to strengthen her brood with the help of Ymirheim's vrykul.[7] She defended the Lich King until the adventurers who went on to slay him destroyed her as well, leaving only her skull behind.[4]
