Thanks, my Battletag is MegaMe#2411, I'll do the interview and then wait for the Great Migration, if that's alright. And yeah, it was Bloodaxe, he's a nice guy, but as said, he sort of disappeared.

Name: Dolgrub Furyborn
Class: Shaman
Level: 100



Roleplaying Experience:
I have been playing World of Warcraft for six years and I started roleplaying within that year. Right off the bat it was Orcish RP primarily.
I like the believe that I know almost all the Orcish Lore there is, granted WoD is one of my most hated expansions (because of the story), but at least it has a lot of Orc and a cool setting.

I'm a native English speaker, if that holds any value.

I've led guilds on Private Roleplaying Servers like Prologue and this very character achieved the rank of Spiritual Leader of the Drums of Worthag when they came to Argent Dawn (a Horde guild that transferred from the Defias Brotherhood a few months ago, despite my efforts, including reviving it once, it unfortunately died out due to all the other officers, including the other Guild Leader being completely missing in action).



Dolgrub, now 66, was born to the Warsong Clan in a nomadic encampment in the north of Nagrand. His father a Hunter and his mother a Tanner. Dolgrub's youth was typical for an Orc boy, he was be trained by his Father to fight and he would help with otherwise more menial tasks. The surname of Furyborn was inherited as his grandfather had earned it in a feat of rage during his Om'riggor.

Dolgrub's Om'riggor involved him killing an Adolescent Clefthoof. Brooding through the underbrush the young Orc took two rocks, chipping one, he used the chipped rock as a tool to sharpen a long fallen branch as his father had taught him, he quietly approached the beast before in a sudden hurl of energy he stabbed it in its jugular vein, more by luck than anything else but the kill was his and he had thus passed his rite to return to his Warsong Clan as a man. As an Adult, Dolgrub pursued the path of a Raider, as in truth, he enjoyed the thrill of the speed of wolf-riding, training with a spear as his father saw fit due to the nature of his Om'riggor.

In his Mid-Twenties, Furyborn's father died, his leg getting trapped in an old abandoned claw trap and the wound getting infected. To fill the hole of the loss of his father, Dolgrub sought to start a family of his own. In perhaps the least charismatic way you can imagine, he requested Sol'ka be his mate, she knew that he was a stable man and luckily for Dolgrub, she was just as dull as he was.

Alas, Dolgrub's eventual son was born deformed, the bones in his legs had deformed in Sol'ka's wounds. Furyborn went through a crisis as he stood in the ceremonial lake, beforehand his mate had urged him to accept the child but Dolgrub made the choice that would impact him for the rest of his life: He put his loyalty and well-being of the Clan before his and his family, Dolgrub drowned his son. Sol'ka never spoke with him again and Dolgrub never attempted to raise another family, becoming quieter but more involved in his Clan's fights.

Enter the Burning Legion, Dolgrub unquestionably followed his Chieftain's lead and drank the blood. Due to the haze, much of what took place at the time is a blur to him, but he distinctly remembers raiding a Draenic Village, the experience did not scar him and he is not ashamed of it, as he maintains the belief that 'war is war.'

Marauding with his Warsong Clan across Azeroth after the fall of the Dark Portal, Dolgrub continued to serve in battle without question, however in his middle-age be began to experience a crisis, having seen what his race had become as he was ordered to liberate internment camps. Dolgrub approached the Frostwolf Clan, people he was not hugely familiar with but people he was now garrisoned alongside where he requested to be taught their old Shamanic ways, after proving himself a focused student he was taught be Bruknag Rollthunder and would remain that way until his graduation in the deserts of Durotar many years later.

Now a Shaman, Dolgrub returned to doing what he was best at, serving the Horde and his Clan. He fought for many years defending the Warsong lumber operations from the Nightwing Sentinels before his new, rightful Chieftain took him and many others to fight in Northrend against the Lich King. Dolgrub spent most of his time in Warsong Hold as an on-hand Guard and Healer. It was there, in the confinement when he had his first vision during a visit from his dying master, Bruknag, that of Shattrath burning. Bruknag explained that the visions could be cryptic however he was now a Farseer.

Dolgrub spent the following years serving in Overlord Saurfang's "clean-up" Army on Northrend, which led to him avoiding his conflicting loyalties in the build up to the Siege.

With the Horde crippled and the Lumber Mill burned by the Elves, Dolgrub began serving in a roving Warband known as the Drums of Worthag where he gained a sense of high value and respect amongst his peers, after much dedication even becoming the Lak'ta, the Lucid One, spiritual leader of his Warband. However due to the disappearance of its Warlord, he concluded his service in Talador, in the new Draenor, which ironically showed him that his visions might not always be as cryptic as Bruknag had suggested when he heard of the Siege of Shattrath.

Without a warband, with a broken, scattered clan and another distant loyalty complex, Dolgrub went searching for the Orcs of the Red Blade to enter a new phase of his life.
