The Dark Keepers are elite named dark dwarves spawned by opening the Dark Keeper Nameplate in the Black Vault in Blackrock Depths. Upon opening the portrait, one of the six Dark Keepers will be randomly selected, and will spawn somewhere in the instance.
The six Dark Keepers are:
- Dark Keeper Bethek
- Dark Keeper Ofgut
- Dark Keeper Pelver
- Dark Keeper Uggel
- Dark Keeper Vorfalk
- Dark Keeper Zimrel
Each drops a
