Kor'kron Legion

Established by the young and rage-filled Overlord Var'gok the Wrathbringer, the Kor'kron Legion was to be a division of the Kor'kron Guard first designed with the intention to fight for the New Horde against the Grand Alliance. He envisioned an honorable, elite fighting force who could strike at the Alliance and other Horde foes while also defending Horde settlements across Kalimdor.

However, Var'gok's life was tragically cut short when he died at the hands of Thane Grungnir Orcbane of the Mountain Guard in a duel between the two leaders. Thus, his friend and right hand, the mighty Overlord Garkar Axebite, the Coming Evil, took the reins as leader over the Kor'kron Legion. But even Axebite was destined to fall, he too dying in battle against the enemies of the Horde.

Then, the Kor'kron Legion was lead by Var'gok's former mentor, and Axebite's most trusted adviser: High Warlord Ruvok Blackwolf of the Blackrock Clan. A veteran of the Horde's previous three wars, he emerged from his self-imposed life as a hermit, fulfilling Var'gok's dying wish to rejoin the Horde. His pride and desire to fight restored, this Champion of the Horde dedicated the remainder of his life to continue the mission of Var'gok's dream until the fateful day came when he passed away in his sleep. Perhaps his spirit found solace in finally being reunited with his family in some afterlife.

For a time the Kor'kron Legion was lead by a tactful and guileful troll known as Githnji "The Butcher." It was discovered that "The Butcher" was involved in dishonorable underhanded workings and organizations as well as abusing his power of authority. When confronted on these accusations by the Legion's Warlord, Githnji resisted arrest and they engaged in a struggle that lead to "The Butcher's" death. A funeral service was held to commemorate the good that Githnji had contributed during his time as a soldier of the Kor'kron, but there are whispers and rumors from those who are not entirely convinced "The Butcher" is dead due to his notorious use of deceptive tactics.

Now, leadership of the Kor’kron Legion is headed by the battle hardened Death knight, Skullcrusha. Along his side is the wise council of trusted Generals, and the soldiers of the Kor'kron Legion that forge ahead into the unknown future to carry out the continued mission laid down by Var'gok.



''For honor. For duty. For the Horde. Respect. Honor. Courage. Strength. Loyalty.''

These are the core tenents of the Kor'kron Legion. This military brings the Horde together as brothers and sisters to crush the Alliance and secure a better place in the world for the Hordes peoples. Bond by blood, the Kor'kron Legion will show no mercy to their foes while honoring their friends and allies. When not battling for the glory of the Warchief the Kor'kron Legion does its best to promote the traditions and customs of the Horde.

''Lok'tar ogar - By these words we live! Hellscream's eyes are upon you! For the Warchief! For the Horde!''
