Olaf Rassmusen is an orog-looking orc fighter who is found on the second floor of the Guarded Compound in Athkatla's Temple District.
If Gorion's Ward and party intrude and decide to explore the second floor, Olaf will attack along with the rest of his group, including Sion, Ketta, Maferan, Stalman and Koshi, providing the party with quite a tough battle.
Gameplay[]
In battle, Olaf is protected by +1 Full Plate, wields a +2 Two-Handed Sword, and is resistant to Charm by his Helmet.
Olaf will quaff his Potion of Regeneration when his hit point total reaches 20% of maximum, so it might not be found in the loot after the battle. As a high-level fighter with exceptional strength and +4 additional hit points per level from his high constitution, he can be a tough opponent.
