Description
Grotho does not seem to wear a lot of armor, unless he is told to. He only wears what is needed for protection, and then he adds an axe or two. A deep red tattoo is seen on his shoulder, in the shape of the Horde Mark, under the Horde Mark is the Warsong Clan Mark tattooed into his skin, contrasting with his yellow green skin- As he is not affected by the blood curses like many other orcs. This does not impair his bloodlust, which shimmers in his dark red eyes. He got lots of scars on his body, not completely covered by them, but got alot of them, his bodybuild is very muscular, he is around 6.9 feet tall and his weight is on around 298 pounds. His skin is thicker then most orc's, as he have been trained hard and long as a beserker/blademaster and gladiator. He ties his hair up into a pony-tail or let it hang loose, even he holds it up at the most so it will not annoy him, his beard is tied into two long "pony-tails" there hangs from each side of his cheeks.

He have an necklace with some feathers on and a big bear tooth, hanging around his neck, he wears it proudly, as it was his mothers once she was alive, and the bear tooth was later added by Grotho as it was the tooth from the bear he had slain in his trial of the hunt.

Trial of the Hunt (Beastmaw trial)
Grotho had been out hunting the whole day, he had heard of a bear, an oversized bear, there had been seen at Talondeep Path, the lake.

He had taken his wolf, Bigtooth, and rided away, on the way he tied his axes to the wolf sadel, he wanted to do this with his bare hands.

When he arrived at the lake, he sended away the wolf, only weapon he had now, was himself and a skinning knife, he looked around, he first heard a splash, then a stick beeing broken could be heard not far from his left side.

A big dark brown figure came from behind a tree, the bear was at the size of Grotho, when on all four legs that is, if it had stood up it could have been twice the high of Grotho, it growled and snarled at him, he snarled back, knowing he was challenging it he took a few steps forward, the bear continued walking around him, then it letted out a roar at him, and charged.

Grotho leaped at the bear at the same time, he got to kick the bear onto its neck before rolling over its back, it turned around and ripped up his one leg's armor with one claw attack, the blood started to run out from the injuries, Grotho's eyes started to flare red, he roared and charged at the bear, raising a fist and punched the bear onto the jaw from the side, the bear roared and clawed Grotho's arm, more blood ran out from his injuries, Grotho leaped onto the bear's back and started to punch it on the backhead.

The bear seem'd to weaken by the punch's but laid down and roled around, tried to crush Grotho, luckily he jumped away and after the bear was standing again he charged at it, the bear stood up in full size, the shadows covered the ground infront of it, even covered Grotho, just before it bashed down at him he changed direction, then kicked at its leg, a crack could be heard as some of its bones broke, he continued to run a little time so he had around 20 yd range from the bear, then turned around and looked at it, it was looking at him, then charged at him, even with the broken leg it could run fast, Grotho kneeled lightly, then when the bear was almost infront of him, he stood up fast, punching it from below onto its jaw, the bear stood up a little, then fell to the side as Grotho punched it on the side of its head, the bear landed with its chest onto a stone, a crack could be heard and blood ran out from its deadly wound, the bear stood up again, its chest was open, it walked towards Grotho, he looked upon it, then charged, the bear bit his arm, but without alot of force, Grotho grabbed it around the throath and twisted it, blood flew out onto Grotho's armour, the bears weight fell upon him as he rolled to the side not to get crushed by it, he stood up, seeing the bear laying dead infront of him, he let out a roar in victory, his eyes faded to their normal colours.

Past
Grotho woke up, peering around finding himself inside of a jail of a kind, he could not remember alot from what have happened before he fel from that stone wall..

He saw alot of other Orcs standing around the jail, bound with chains, Grotho saw himself bound aswell, he stood up, letting out a roar, two human guards came to him and smashed him with their shields up against the wall, he laughed as the guards stood back.

Weeks went off, months came by, the winter came to the land.

Grotho and a few other orcs have spoken of escaping the place, to join the new forces of the "new Horde", Grotho and the three others started their plan, Grotho roared to get the guards attention, they came to him and saw that the chain link had been broken (they had broken it with stones) and they charged at him, Grotho punched the one guard in the stomach, then twisted its head to the side, he took the others guard helm of by punching him at the stomach aswell, the grabbed his throath and punched his fist once into the face, a loud crack could be heard as the skull broke, the three other orcs had breaked their chains aswell, they started to free other orcs aswell, but heard the horn sound and saw mercenaries come towards them with spear and shield, the free orcs ran, Grotho and the other three tried to free a few others as the one of the three orcs got stabbed through its chest by a spear, Grotho killed one guard, then got a spear strike over his arm, he killed another guard, then ran off with the others.

Grotho joined up with Thralls forces and freed more orcs, Grotho where not very old at that time, but neither was he very young, when they went to Kalimdor, Grotho went out into the wilds once they got there, but before he left, he got a tattoo onto his shoulder, where the mark of the new horde was.

Grotho have been travelling back to Outland, fighting in the ring of blood at Nagrand, he got told a few things from his past, his name was Grotho Skullcrusher, he only remembered Grotho, not his after name, after a while, he returned to the now new lands of the horde, he went straight to the city of the orcs, Orgrimmar.

Grotho had not weared alot of armor through the time in the wilds, but as a gladiator in Nagrand he had started, first alot of plate armor, now mostly mail with a little plate armor, then one or two two-handed axes, coming up on who he fights or how he wants to spend his time for that moment, he is not completely useless without weapons, as he is trained in the ways of the Bone Crushers, there gets hardened skin (by birth and training) aswell as a strength not alot can match.

But back at Orgrimmar he went around in his small set of armor, he needed a new leather rem to hold the shoulder pauldrons on place, on the way to the vendor, he got hold up by one of thoose orcs he had helped flee, one of the three, he had got a good status in the Warsong Clan, because he fought the Night Elf's alot, but he was no longer the old, friend, he once was, he was an ego trip now, and said that he had done everything in the plan and killed the guards, the truth is, he was the one fleeing from them. but later that night he searched up Grotho again, and asked him to be silent about the truth, Grotho did not wish so, so the orc took his weapon and charged at him, Grotho unsheathed his weapon and make a slash at the orc, his shield splitted in two, Grotho grabbed his throath and trew him at the ground, then setted a food onto the chest, he raised it, then stamped down, breaking most of the rips and destroying a lung, he never saw the orc since.

Recently
Grotho wonders Durotar and orgrimmar, the only two places he looks upon as "home", lately alot have happen, he have met this female orc, been with her aswell on more then one way, but feeling lightly ashamed because of some very old feelings for another. His father have also returned from the death, or so Grotho thought, his father and mother had been hold captured for long time, his mother died, his father escaped. His father, Grastron, yelled at him at first, challenging him for the title of the Skullcrusher, Grotho won, and after, Grastron told him that he was his father, and gave him his mothers necklace.

A few days later, Grastron finds Grotho inside of Orgrimmar, again, he is holding a pair of pauldrons in his arms, big brown ones, made of plate, onto them some tusk/bones something are sitting, he says that they have been in their bloodline for alot of years, and now, the time have come for Grotho to wear them, so Grotho took off his pauldron, and took on the others, the weight at first was surprisingly heavy, then later it became light.

Now Grotho walks with the bloodlines pauldrons, two axes indicating his a skullcrusher, and then mail or plate armor as boots, gloves, leggings, belt, and chest armour is leather. He walks around with the Beastmaws tabard on, wielding it proud, as he is proud to be in one of the few standing clans left for this world.
