According to some the gronn gave rise to the lesser ogres, yet they show little love for their children — they rule the ogre clans with a brutal iron fist. Only eight gronn are said to be in existence,the most powerful being Gruul.Though there are many minor ones patrolling the western cliffs in [[Nagrand]]. Gronn wield fearsome power; however, they are not famed for their intelligence.<ref>[http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/townhall/bestiary.html Burning Crusade Bestiary]</ref>

The gronn are mentioned in ''[[Rise of the Horde]]''; the [[ogre]]s claim that they were beaten and whipped by the gronn (many ogres bore whip scars on their backs). The ogres rebelled against the gronn with the assistance of [[Blackhand]] and the [[Horde (pre-Thrall)|Orcish Horde]].

*{{RaceIconExt|Gronn|Small}} [[Gruul the Dragonkiller]], the raid boss in [[Gruul's Lair]] is the father of the gronn.

* Perhaps [[Nath]], the ogre war god, is a gronn or an even greater demigod.
 
−
* A few elite monsters exist in Nagrand, named [[Mountain Gronn]], who are walking around near [[Warmaul Hill]], and will fight with [[ogres]]. These are probably lesser gronn or a step between [[ogre lord]]s and gronn.
 
−
* A gronn is being held captive in a stasis chamber at Bash'ir Landing named [[Thuk the Defiant]].
 
−
* At the Circle of Blood in Blade's Edge Mountains, there is a NPC, Baron Sablemane, who is a black drake in disguise who has this to say: "My loathing of interruptions is overshadowed only by my hatred of Gruul the Dragonkiller and his seven sons!".

==Speculation==
 
−
{{speculation}}
 
−
Given that most of the named Gronn are described as Gruul's sons, Gruul may be the first gronn, or else the being who created them. Given the use of the term "demigod," it's logical to assume that gronn are comparable in nature to the Azerothian variety, such as [[Malorne]], [[Cenarius]], or [[Aviana]].
 
−  
−
As for how powerful the gronn are, this is more difficult to determine, as the power of demigods has a wide range. There are the mightiest demigods, such as [[Malorne]], [[Cenarius]], [[Aviana]], [[Agamaggan]], [[Ursol and Ursoc]], but then there are the lesser ones, such as [[Omen]] and several others that are simple guardians of sacred sites here and there. Gronn could be theoretically anywhere on this scale.
 
−  
−
It is most probably so, that the seven gronn are demigods, but that there are differences in power amongst them just as with their Azerothian counterparts. Gruul the Dragonkiller is the mightiest one; as mighty as Cenarius, Malorne, or Aviana, albeit in a different way. The other gronn, Durn, Maggoc, and the patrolling ones, are lesser demigods akin to the lesser Azerothian demigods.

==Trivia==
 
−
Gronn seem to be rather fond of [[dragon]] hunting — there are several fully grown adult [[Black Dragon|black dragons]] found impaled on spikes within the [[Blade's Edge Mountains]], whilst some gronn take related titles such as "[[Gruul the Dragonkiller]]" and "[[Gorgrom the Dragon-Eater]]".
