Nahagliiv (Skyrim)

Nahagliiv was a dragon who served Alduin the World-Eater. His name translates to "Fury Burn Wither".

When he was slain he was buried in a mound on a hillside which overlooks an area where the village of Rorikstead now stands from the north west.

After being resurrected by Alduin, the player can encounter him as he circles the village and generally doesn't stray very far from his mound. Although he is one of the few dragons identified by name he does not play a pertinent part in the story. There is also a glitch where after defeating him his skeleton will suddenly sink into the ground leaving only his head visible. This can be fixed by using the staff of zombies on him. (only works once on the Xbox 360).

Resurrection
As with several other dragons, it's possible to witness Nahagliiv's resurrection if you visit his burial mound before Act II: Elder Knowledge begins. Like all resurrection, Alduin will circle the mound and then speak in Dragon Language to awaken Nahagliiv. However if the player is fast enough, it's possible to chase Alduin away from the mound before he has a chance to complete the ritual. By doing this the mound will temporarily remain closed but Nahagliiv will be awake. If you demonstrate a shout nearby the mound Nahagliiv will speak one line of dialogue.
