Personality
Mordei is a rough and tumble hunter, with a fondness for animals, and nack for surviving in the wild. He loves to do dangerous hunts, often going out of his way to get the next big catch. Even though he is a Tauren, he's got the idea that he must outdo Hemit Nestingway, and become Azeroth's next top hunter.
He often keeps trophies from his kills, either in the form of parts of his garb, or even a head for his mantle. Sometimes, he will even try to tame the rare beasts, and show them off as though they are something he had won... which, truly might be the case, since he puts a lot of work into training them, and making them no longer completely feral.
History: Mordei, like most Tauren, was born a nomad. He's faced his fair share of conflict against the Centaur. However, his talents lied within the hunt. He has been a solid runner most of his life, however, to him that was mearly a means to his end.
His first hunt was of course, tracking down Kodo. The beasts are renowned in Tauren culture for being one of the most difficult animals to hunt, mostly due to their immense size, and strength. So Mordei tracked his prey, for days, and camped out under the stars while following the herd. Within about three days, he found the pack... which was led by a large alpha male.
Ignoring the other Kodo in the group, he went straight for the male. Mordei was unarmored, and only had his bow as a weapon. He used his speed and dexterity to move around the beast, avoiding the attacks while launching arrow after arrow into the beast's rough hide, until it finally collapsed, dead.
Rather than taking the whole carcass at once, he took the horn, and went back to the place his people were currently staying, and asked for the help in taking back the carcass.
Years passed, and the Tauren joined the Horde. It was in the Horde that Mordei found the use for guns. Upon purchasing his first gun, he never looked back to bows or crossbows.
He started to wear clothing as well, and upon finding out about Hemet Nestingway, and seeing crude drawings, he'd decided to copy that sort of clothing, so that when he eventually tops the Dwarf on trophies... he'll at least be well dressed.
