Notes and trivia[]
- In the Warlords of Draenor beta, Delvar used to be an Arms Warrior. He was changed before launch to a Blood Death Knight but his dialogues were not updated, still acknowledging him as a warrior and getting drunk.
- When Delvar serves as a companion, other players will see him as Stormshield Death Knight.
- When Delvar's reputation reaches Wingman, his axe does not upgrade along with his armor. As a result, he punches enemies with his fist. This is a direct reference to his namesake 'Khelgar Ironfist' from Neverwinter Nights 2, a dwarven warrior-turned-monk.
- Delvar wears a reskinned version of the death knight tier 10 armor, Scourgelord's Battlegear. This version is unavailable to players. It is also worn by Marwyn in the Halls of Reflection and Deathbringer Saurfang in Icecrown Citadel.
- Delvar originally appeared as a Dwarf Warrior in the First Quest Advanced Dungeons & Dragons set. Delvar's mention of his grandpa Gygax is a reference to Gary Gygax, creator of Dungeons & Dragons.
- He has an invisible Follower recruiting spell with the following description: Follower: Delvar Ironfist — Delvar Ironfist is a surly dwarf that loves battle almost as much as mead.
