Personality

He despises the alliance, especially elves and humans. He seems to get along -somewhat- alright with dwarves, due to their share of hatreds to the elves and their violent nature. He's somewhat of a hot-head, and not very smart. He prefers to use his axe to speak instead of words, and due to his lack of intelligence, he's very easy to manipulate. He respects trolls, and especially shamans greatly and would -never- hurt or maim either, even if that would mean his own death. He's somewhat loyal to his superiors, but tends to have a rather harsh attitude towards them, to prove their worth. He's definitely an orc of honor, and also despises people who fights dirty for that reason. He'll rarely let down a challenge, even if he knows that it will mean his death. "Lok'tar Ogar" is his motto, and the "code" that he follows.

He has respect for his opponents, and will only show mercy if he doesn't believe his opponent is worth killing. He'd rather let them live in shame, than making them die with pride, if they are worthless. This is an exception to elves though, seeing as he'll not think twice about crushing the skull of an elf if he gets the chance to. He'd only join a battle that's not related to him in any way, if the opponents fights dirty or it's not even in means of both numbers and strength. He's a man of tradition, and will only respect others if they give him the same respect (except for trolls and shamans). His bloodrage is a serious problem though, meaning that from time to time, he'll just slash down anything that doesn't look orcish on his path.


Alignment: Lawful Neutral (Chaotic Neutral when in bloodrage)

History

Grahouk was born on Draenor, with his mother and father, a very poor family. When they didn't work, the father was training with his wooden sword. M'grash, his father was an old orc who used to be a great warrior, but he was too old for that now. His body was frail, and his young son, Grahouk, had to support him around alot. His mother was a very mysterious woman, an ex-shaman who used to be very skilled, but now nothing but a mere peon. Grahouk was proud of parents, but sick of it. They were moved to the interment camps when Grahouk was one year old, so he remembers little of Draenor. His life in the internment camps was short-lived, seeing as they got captured by the humans. Feeling useless, Grahouk was just sitting there and waiting to die. "Lok'tar Ogar" was his motto back then, as well as it is today. He was fortunate that they were rescued, and Grahouk was truly indebted to Orgim and his men. He was now a part of the New Horde, and fought bravely with the Horde from that day.

Many years passed, as they settled down in Orgrimmar and lived well. Grahouk felt useless once again, and the occasional skirmishes in Ashenvale were not enough for him. He wanted to brand his name into the history books, and his journey started in Gadgetzan as a brawler. He won many cage fights, and his specialty was to crush elves, hence why he got the name 'Elfcrusher'. He joined the cage fighting group, along with Tiny and fought against the trained boxer, and lost. He was the first human to earn his respect, and thought that his days in the cage were over. He was now a warrior, a true warrior, and he went to Ashenvale once again. There, he fought many battles for the Warsong Clan but one day, it went horribly wrong. He joined up with a troll and his men and they fought yet another skirmish in Ashenvale - unfortunately, they were outnumbered by the Alliance. He saw Kreyalor Stoneaxe fall in battle to a man named Patrick's blade. That damn paladin was killing his brethren, but Grahouk was busy enough fighting with an elf himself. He managed to incapacitate a kaldorei woman, named Kaia, but was quickly outnumbered. A druid entangled him in roots, and pierced his heart. Cloria, Dalar, and many others had surrounded him and there was no hope for him. "Lok'tar Ogar..." were his last words as he coughed up blood and fell in battle.

He was fortunate to get a second chance, as he was resurrected in one of the outposts by the Darkspear trolls. Forever indebted to them, he'll continue to fight for the Horde and bring down Alliance pigs, as long as he lives.
