Personality

Alignment: Lawful Evil

Quick-witted, stern, serious and fiercely obedient. Ba'rok is lost without a leader, and is loyal and respectful to the very end. He is militaristic in both lifestyle and personality, and will follow any order given to him.

While not being stupid or dim, Ba'rok is rather lost without a strong leader. He is also somewhat limited in emotion, and can be seen as boring or overly serious to some.

Another's race holds no bearing on Ba'rok's opinion on them, though he does relish killing Draenei slightly more than others.

History

Ba'rok was born to the Bleeding Hollow clan in the scorched peninsulas of central-western Draenor. His father a mighty warrior, Ba'rok lived in the shadow of his achievements on the battlefield as he grew up. Always a large and strong Orc, Ba'rok was cruel and brutal to the other younglings of his clan. He gained an arrogant and self-sufficient mindset as he began training as a warrior.

Upon his coming of age, Ba'rok undertook his Om'riggor. Travelling east to the lush lands of Nagrand, Ba'rok took only a tattered iron axe with him. His clash with a Talbuk was a hard one, for he chose a large, patriarchal male to kill. Nonetheless, he was successful and returned to the tribe with new honour, after the Shaman verified his kill.

Ba'rok was first introduced in to combat at the time of the First War. He travelled through the Dark Portal to attack Stormwind with the rest of his clan. Being a part of the utter failure that the first attack on Stormwind's keep was, Ba'rok gained himself many scars in return for his life, but only just. However, his talent for boosting morale and inciting courage was uncovered that day and he was quickly given the title of Exemplar for the inevitable return of war for the Orcish Horde.

Ba'rok enjoyed the bloodlust that the legion taint had given him. He revelled in battle, and was a staunch supporter of the Burning Legion. He did not desire a return to the Shamanistic ways, because he felt them weak compared to the Demonic power of the Legion. Instead of returning to Azeroth to fight in the Second War, he stayed in Draenor and pledged himself to the Cabal in Auchindoun. He was quickly caught up in the propaganda and tales of grandeur, becoming fiercely loyal and obedient to the cult. He served the Cabal for a long time, being very minor to them, simply serving as a guard.

A few months ago, Ba'rok expressed his desire to be more active in serving the Legion, and has been given the chance to work on his own in Azeroth and Draenor by being honourably discharged from the Cabal, cutting all ties to them.
