- For the large building complex, see Icecrown Citadel. For the raid instance, see Icecrown Citadel (instance).
Icecrown is a zone composed of mostly Icecrown Glacier and the immediate area around it. Icecrown is surrounded by mountains to the south. The ground is neither frozen earth nor covered with snow; it is solid ice. Hence, nothing grows here.
History
Once the seat of power for Arthas Menethil, the previous Lich King, Icecrown was a dark and imposing realm, virtually lifeless, populated by thousands upon thousands of the tormented undead. With the death of Arthas, a new Lich King has come to dominate, and his iron will holds the undead Scourge in dreamless slumber, keeping the rest of Azeroth safe.
The Ashen Verdict, an order composed of paladins from the Argent Crusade and death knights from the Knights of the Ebon Blade, have become the new inhabitants of Icecrown Citadel, watching over the newly crowned Lich King and ensuring that none disturb his unholy slumber, lest the dark power he now wields overtake him and unleash a new evil upon the world.
Cataclysm
The roof of the world itself was rent asunder by Deathwing's Cataclysm. The power struggle in Northrend will come to a head at the very doorstep of the Lich King.
- The Scourge forces on the surface of Icecrown have been reduced to mindless undead. Most of the Scourge forces along the great gates have been replaced by Twilight's Hammer forces.
- The blue dragonflight has secured Sindragosa's Fall from the Scourge remnants, but the twilight dragonflight has begun to attack. Twilight's Hammer forces are attempting to excavate more blue dragon remains to create wychwyrms.
- The Argent Coliseum has collapsed into the Icy Depths. Nerubians are swarming through the tournament grounds. The Ashen Verdict have reunited to battle them back. The coliseum dungeon and raid have been removed.
- Death Queen Angerboda has taken over the vrykul holdings in Icecrown. Her forces and the Cult of the Damned are clashing with the Twilight's Hammer and other Scourge remnants in the area. Vidar Ymironson has arrived with his forces, and plans to take down Angerboda once and for all.
- Portions of Icecrown Glacier have collapsed, exposing the Spider Kingdom and releasing nerubians and Faceless Ones to the surface.
- In Icecrown Citadel's courtyard, Twilight's Hammer forces are clashing with the Ashen Verdict.
- The Twilight's Hammer have seized the quarry that once held Malykriss, the Saronite Necropolis. The fearsome structure's whereabouts are unknown.
- The Icecrown Citadel raid has been removed.
- The Forge of Souls, the Pit of Saron, and the Halls of Reflection have been revised to feature Twilight's Hammer and Scourge Remnant enemies. The Twilight's Hammer storyline will be resolved here, leading into the Spider Kingdom content.
