History

Born to the Stormreaver Clan, he was trained since childhood to become a Grunt just as like his father. The majority of his childhood years were spent being trained by his father and other close relatives. When he reached adulthood and passed his rite of passage by killing a Talbuk, he was inducted as a full member of his Clan and officially became a Grunt. For the years leading up to the First War, he was either guarding the orcish settlement where he lived or on patrol with his father and several of his close friends.

When the Dark Portal opened and the First War began. Rogath and the rest of his clan were some of the first to cross over to the new world and wage war against the pinkskins. He participated in numerous battles that were key to winning the war including the sacking of Stormwind. This is where he earned his last name. During the sacking of Stormwind, Rogath found an iron shield that belonged to one of the defending soldiers. He decided to take it up and use it against the humans who made it and to his own surprise he was very good with it. When humans charged at him, he braced himself and would easily stop a human in their tracks. When he charged at a human, the iron shield would be used as a be used as a blunt weapon to smack the target aside and it seemed as though nothing could stop Rogath's charge which is why one of his clansmen came up with the name 'Ironwall'.

When the Second War came around, the Stormreaver Clan was tasked with defending Stormwind and Balor. In spite of this, the clan betrayed the rest of the Horde and abandoned the city, taking most of their boats so that they may make the trip to the Broken Isles. Unfortunately for the clan, their leader Gul'dan had not anticipated the Guardians of the Tomb that he had raised from the Ocean floor. Gul'dan died a horrible death and the rest of the clan was soon to follow as Doomhammer and the Blackrock clan had caught up with them and decided that the punishment for their treason was death. Rogath was one of the lucky ones who managed to obtain a raft and leave the Isles before he was killed but most of his Clan was not so lucky, this included his Mother. Rogath escaped with his father back to Azeroth where they were both captured and placed in Interment camps. During their imprisonment, his father's health was worsening due to lethargy and by the time they were freed by the Warsong and Frostwolf Clans, his father was nearing the end of his days.

They made it to Kalimdor along with Thrall and his New Horde but they didn't make it very far before Rogath's father died. He passed away peacefully in his sleep and he was buried in the same spot where he passed away in The Barrens. For the remainder of the Third War, Rogath took part and did his best to survive. Once the Orcs had secured their place in Durotar and founded Orgrimmar, Rogath went on a sojourn so that he may find his place in this new world, all the while keeping his past a secret.

Since then, he has spent his days living off the land in several regions in Central Kalimdor, spending his days in solitude and peace.
