Bet you don't even remember half the foolery you got up to. Well, make yourself at home - you'll be staying a while.

— Ivarus to the player character who wakes up in cell after trying Hoots Hooligan's special

Involvement

Ivarus together with  Fist Jagic,  Fist Saunder, and  Fist Creekrider guards the Wyrm's Rock Prison underneath the fortress. Ivarus constantly patrols the prison, walking from the end of the cell section to the Storage room door, past the entrance. None of the other guards ever change his route.

If the party attempt to free  Florrick as part of the ⁠Free Counsellor Florrick quest, Ivarus potentially spots the attempt and must be dealt with.

If the player character comes to their senses in the prison cell after tasting  Hoots Hooligan's special  hooch, Ivarus greets them with mockery, tauntingly offering they make themselves at home, after having heavily caroused around after blacking out.

Ivarus expresses utter devotion to his duty, but even more he is loyal to  Enver Gortash personally. If Gortash is defeated, Ivarus plainly claims that his own life no longer has meaning.
