Personality

Always in need of recognition, Gogor still seeks to be known and thought of, even as a Death Knight. Since most people give his kind the wrong kind of fame, Gogor desperately searches for someone to see his strengths. Having lost the ability to properly behave in public, his methods of showing others his "good side" are often weird, odd or even wrong, often harming others to make himself stand out as the one worth mentioning.

History

Born to a large family, Gogor (who then went by a different, dwarven name) was always looking for a way to show himself as better than his siblings. Although being the youngest and sometimes dumbest in the family, he didn't give up hope until it was clear that his parents were attached to the accomplishments of his elder brothers. Still seeking to be revered for his actions, he joined the Army, hoping to bring himself honor on the battlefield.

Even though he battled as fiercely as any other and slayed as many Orcs as a dwarf could, the people of Ironforge were blinded by the glory of the generals and commanders, which overshadowed each and every one of Gogor's actions. The end of The Second War also ended that part of his life. Broken and forgotten by everyone, he still tried to make an occasional good impression to anyone he could, but he failed.

The coming of the plague was a turning point for Gogor's existence, he was killed. As the thousands of Scourge troops ravaged the land of Lordaeron, Gogor was cut down when traveling from Ironforge to Aerie Peaks with a caravan. Already broken and defeated before the war, Gogor's soul wasn't hard to be bound to the Lich King's will and with his body reanimated several years after the actual war, Gogor became a tool for the Scourge.

Maybe due to luck, he was chosen to become a Death Knight along with hundreds of others, to be stationed at Acherus, the Ebon Hold and for the first time in all those years, he felt that his actions were important. Although devoid of emotion, something moved in Gogor (which might have been his liver) when The Lich King stressed the importance of the destruction and chaos he caused. He had achieved his goals.

But that too was taken from the Dwarf, when the Death Knights of Acherus rebelled against the Scourge. Once again, Gogor was left all alone, without any congratulating him on his deeds.

Now the hollow knight walks Azeroth alone, searching for anyone, the Alliance or even the Horde, to see his actions as he himself does: Important and grand.
