The orcish capital of [[Orgrimmar]], the Horde-controlled town of [[Hammerfall]] in the [[Arathi Highlands]], and the flying battleship ''[[Orgrim's Hammer]]'' patrolling the skies of [[Icecrown]], are named in his honor. |

||
| − | Orgrim of the [[Blackrock clan|Blackrocks]] and [[Durotan]] of the [[Frostwolf Clan|Frostwolves]] originally met whilst secreting away as children from the sleeping tent during the [[Kosh'harg]] festival in [[Nagrand]]. The two troublesome youths escaped past their sleep time to spy on the clans' councils, only to be severely disappointed. Deciding instead to spend the rest of the night challenging each other, they soon formed a bond that, while technically not forbidden, was considered against tradition by the Blackrock and Frostwolf clans they belonged to. Orgrim and Durotan never stopped being friends. |
||
| + | ==Progress== |
||
| − | During a race through [[Terokkar Forest]], they accidentally stumbled upon a raging [[ogre]], and in a last burst of speed, ran for their lives. Seemingly out of nowhere, a brigade of [[draenei]] appeared and rescued the lads, who spent the rest of the day with [[Restalaan]], and conferencing with [[Velen]]. |
||

||
| + | ==Completion== |
||
| − | Orgrim started his rise to power through the [[Thunderlord Clan]], being a member of that clan too. Blackrock Clan had strong connections to the Thunderlord Clan, though, and for this reason Orgrim was able to rise to power in both.<ref>''[[Horde Player's Guide]]'', 172</ref><ref>''[[Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal]] Manual''</ref> Upon the death of his father, Orgrim became wielder of the [[Doomhammer]] and second-in-command to [[Blackhand]]. |
||
| + | I must get to work preparing the salve immediately. These reagents lose their efficacy by the minute. |
||
| + | Thank you, <name>. |
||
| − | Though Orgrim was internally opposed to the war against the draenei, he followed Blackhand's orders, and even gave in to the blood lust [[Gul'dan]] had cultivated. But, like Durotan, he began to wonder if the orcs had been [[Kil'jaeden|deceived]]. He was one of the few orcs that didn't drink the [[Blood of Mannoroth|blood]] of [[Mannoroth]], claiming to be unworthy to drink from the same vessel as the Warchief and chieftains. Though Blackhand was gullible enough to believe this excuse, Gul'dan was not, and would remain wary of Orgrim from that point on. |

||
| − | Doomhammer was one of [[Blackhand]]'s most trusted lieutenants, commanding a number of battles against the forces of the Kingdom of [[Azeroth (kingdom)|Azeroth]]. But Orgrim was less and less convinced about the decisions Blackhand made, and was growing more suspicious about Gul'dan's motives. When [[Gul'dan]] fell into a coma, trying to pry the secrets from the head of the dying [[Medivh]], Orgrim took this chance to seize power by killing the Warchief, and becoming the leader of the [[Horde]]. |

||
| + | ==Notes== |
||
| − | Soon after, [[Durotan]] arrived to see Orgrim. The [[Frostwolf]] clan had been exiled for Durotan's refusal to follow Gul'dan's schemes. Durotan had known about Gul'dan's treachery and his pact with [[Kil'jaeden]], but had been silent about it. He eventually decided to tell Orgrim about Gul'dan and the [[Shadow Council]], and Orgrim decided it was time to stop the evil warlock.<ref>''[[Lord of the Clans]]''</ref> |

||
| + | ==Quest progression== |
||
| − | Unlike Blackhand, Doomhammer decided he would not be a puppet to Gul'dan and his Shadow Council. Doomhammer captured [[Garona]] and tortured her into revealing the location of the Council, seeking to destroy it because he believed it to be a corrupting influence over the Horde. Orgrim then killed as many [[warlock (lore)|warlock]]s and members of the Shadow Council as he could manage, effectively crushing their power. |

||
| − | When Gul'dan awoke, he found that the new Warchief had destroyed the Shadow Council - branding the warlock caste as traitors and executing many of them - and intended to slay him as well. Begging at Doomhammer's feet, Gul'dan reminded him that with the Shadow Council gone he was the last true sorcerer within the Horde, and that they would need him agains the human wizards. The warlock promised that he would create an army of all-powerful necromancers, loyal to the Warchief: the [[Death knight (Warcraft II)|Death Knight]]s. Doomhammer readily agreed, despite (correctly) suspecting Gul'dan of treachery. |

||
| − | A bitter enemy of the [[Alliance]], Doomhammer was in the front ranks as he led the Horde into [[Khaz Modan]] and the [[Second War]]. Although he commanded the Horde with an iron fist, Doomhammer also demonstrated his prowess as a diplomat as he made new allies for the Horde among the [[goblin]]s and [[Forest troll|trolls]] of Azeroth.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', 37</ref> Doomhammer claimed the [[Blackrock Spire]] as the Horde's base of operations, and allowed [[Zuluhed]] of the [[Dragonmaw clan]] to pursue his research into the [[Demon Soul]]. This led to the enslavement of the dragonqueen [[Alexstrasza]], and the breeding of dragons to help the Horde in the war.<ref>''[[Tides of Darkness]]''</ref> |

| − | Under his command, the Horde was able to wreak havoc on the northlands, conquering most of Khaz Modan and gravely damaging [[Lordaeron]] and [[Quel'Thalas]]. Orgrim also made a pact with [[Lord Perenolde]], the ruler of [[Alterac]]. The treacherous human allowed Orgrim and the Horde to pass unimpeded through the mountain passes towadrs Lordaeron's [[Capital City]], in exchange for the assurance that his nation would not be attacked by the Horde. Orgrim, though suspicious of the human's motives, agreed.<ref>''[[Tides of Darkness]]''</ref> |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | |||
| − | However, Doomhammer was correct in his previous assessment of the perfidious Gul'dan. When the Horde was launching the final and [[the Fall of Lordaeron|massive attack]] on Lordaeron's Capital City, Gul'dan's [[Stormreaver Clan]], along with [[Cho'gall]]'s [[Twilight's Hammer]], and all others loyal to the warlock, abandoned the Horde and set sail to the south. Chasing him to the [[Tomb of Sargeras]], Orgrim sent part of the [[Blackrock Clan]] and the [[Black Tooth Grin clan]] to [[Battle at the Tomb of Sargeras|engage]] both the Stormreaver and Twilight's Hammer forces. Gul'dan and his warlocks entered the Tomb of Sargeras but were slain by the demons within. The rest of the clan members were anihilated by Orgrim's forces. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Weakened by losses caused by Gul'dan's treachery, Doomhammer was forced to fall back from the human capital of Lordaeron to his fortress at [[Blackrock Spire]]. There he fought the final battle of the Second War against the [[Alliance of Lordaeron]], leading a charge from Blackrock Spire to clash with [[Anduin Lothar]] and his paladin guard. Human and orc battled one another in a titanic conflict that left both warriors drained, but the Warchief was able to vanquish the Regent of Azeroth. Some believe that Doomhammer did not win fairly and that Lothar was killed after being ambushed by Horde warriors.<ref>[[Assault on Blackrock Spire]]</ref><ref>''[[Horde Player's Guide]]'', 171</ref><ref>''[[Alliance Player's Guide]]'', 134</ref> Nevertheless, Lothar's death did not have the effect that Doomhammer intended. Rather than being demoralized, the Alliance - led by Lothar's lieutenant, [[Turalyon]] - rallied, whipped into a frenzy that shocked even the Warchief himself and all but [[Assault on Blackrock Spire|destroyed]] Doomhammer's forces, chasing them back to the [[Dark Portal]]. Orgrim himself was defeated and captured by Turalyon, soon after Lothar's death. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Meeting with Thrall=== |
||
| − | [[Image:Doomhammer Presents the Head of Blackhand.jpg|thumb|Orgrim Doomhammer]] |
||
| − | After the defeat at Blackrock Spire, Doomhammer was captured and held as an oddity (his own words) in the palace of [[Terenas Menethil II|King Terenas]] of [[Lordaeron]]. However, Doomhammer was able to escape easily from Lordaeron City and made his way to an internment camp, where he saw what had become of his people. Rather than the bloodthirsty warriors he had led in battle, Doomhammer found only lethargic, wasted souls. Despairing, Doomhammer very nearly fell victim to the lethargy himself, but managed to retain enough of himself to escape from the internment camp. He lived as a hermit in the less-traveled areas of Lordaeron, until one day, he was contacted by [[Drek'Thar]] of the [[Frostwolf Clan]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The [[shaman (lore)|elder shaman]] informed Doomhammer that there was a young orc staying with the Frostwolves high in the mountains of [[Alterac]]. This orc, discovered to be the long-lost son of Durotan, had escaped after being raised a slave by humans and had begun searching for his people. Durotan's son, [[Thrall]], was determined to find a way to free the captive orcs and restore them to their former glory. Orgrim had heard of this Thrall before from [[Grom Hellscream]], whom Thrall had met before he began searching for his clan. Hellscream had nothing but good things to say about the youth. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Intrigued, Doomhammer paid a visit to the Frostwolves to see Thrall for himself, but made it clear beforehand that he didn't want Thrall to know who he was. When Doomhammer arrived nobody referred to him by name or told Thrall about him. When Thrall met Doomhammer that night, he did not realize he was dealing with the former leader of the Horde of whom he had heard so many great things; he only saw a strange orc warming himself by the fire. As the night wore on, Thrall became increasingly annoyed by the secretive demeanor of the stranger, and by his talk of how there was no point in trying to fight the humans. When Thrall insisted that the freedom of the orcs was worth fighting for, the stranger asked him what he was doing hiding in the mountains with the other Frostwolves if he really believed that. Becoming more angry, Thrall argued that he would travel south in the spring to join Grom Hellscream and the [[Warsong Clan]], that together they would storm the camps and liberate all of the orc prisoners. The stranger scoffed at the notion and contemptuously dismissed Hellscream as a "demon-ridden dreamer." Thrall had heard enough and challenged this stranger, who had repaid the hospitality of the Frostwolves with insults, to single battle. This was precisely what Doomhammer had hoped would happen. He had implied the Frostwolves were cowards and that the orcs as a race could not defeat the humans in order to see whether Thrall would stand up for his clan and people, and Thrall had not disappointed him. Now Doomhammer would see whether Thrall's fighting skill was equally impressive. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===Liberation of the orcs=== |
||
| − | [[Image:Doomhammer.jpg|thumb|Orgrim Doomhammer]] |
||
| − | Losing to the young shaman, and being shown mercy, he revealed himself as the Warchief of the Horde. At first Thrall was aghast at how he had treated such an important person as Orgrim Doomhammer, and began to apologize profusely. Orgrim stopped him and told him it was not necessary, explaining his reasons for staying anonymous. He went on to explain that he had a plan to break free the imprisoned orcs, and Thrall and Drek'thar agreed to help. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Along with Hellscream and the Warsong Clan, they were able to easily storm four internment camps freeing the orcs held inside. At the fifth, however, the Alliance was prepared and held a force of mounted [[knights]]. They ambushed the orcs and in the mist of their bloodlust the orcs fell victim to the knights' charge. In the midst of the chaos created by Thrall to cover their retreat, Orgrim was mortally wounded by a strike to the back — impaled by a charging knight's lance with enough force to pierce the back plate of his armor and his body, denting the breastplate from the inside. (This is a rather ironic death for him, since he had been called the backstabber and died being ''literally'' backstabbed). With his last breath, Orgrim gave the title of Warchief, along with his great warhammer and black armor, to Thrall. The former internment camp where he fell is now the Horde base of [[Hammerfall]], located in the [[Arathi Highlands]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Doomhammer's Legacy== |
||
| − | After the orcs found a land of their own, which they called [[Durotar]] after his father, Thrall established the city of [[Orgrimmar]] in honor of the venerable Warchief, his mentor and friend. Thrall still wears the black plate and carries the hammer that was synonymous with Orgrim Doomhammer, fulfilling his weapon's ancient prophecy. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Doomhammer's name also lives on in the ''[[Orgrim's Hammer]]'' - a powerful flying warship that serves as the mobile Horde headquarters in [[Icecrown]], the seat of the [[Lich King]], in the frozen wastes of [[Northrend]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Personality== |
||
| − | Doomhammer is a warrior born, his leadership ability forged in combat. He is unendingly loyal to those who prove their strength and service, but quick to avenge himself on those who attack him or his allies. Among the orcs, his gruff, curt manner is respected, but to others he can seem dismissive and contemptuous. Understanding the value of protecting an army’s leadership, battles often found Doomhammer in a far-off command tent. Yet whenever possible, he is a howling, bloodthirsty presence on the front lines, personally leading his troops to victory. Though he is a towering figure in his black armor, Doomhammer can hide himself completely in as simple a disguise as a tattered cloak in order to move undetected among his enemies.<ref name="S&L 38">''[[Shadows & Light]]'', 38</ref> |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Combat== |
||
| − | Doomhammer doesn’t hesitate to strike the first blow in combat, usually striking from surprise using one of the Blackhand’s fangs hanging from his belt. Wielding the Doomhammer, he leaps fearlessly into any number of enemies and becomes a whirlwind of destruction. Distrustful of spellcasters but confident in his armor, Doomhammer usually first attempts to kill any wizards among his enemies. On occasion, he will save the strongest among his enemies for last, relishing the chance to hone his martial skill against a worthy opponent.<ref name="S&L 38" /> |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Doomhammer’s Plate== |
||
| − | {{RPG-section}} |
||
| − | This half-plate armor was, of course, once worn into battle by the mighty Doomhammer. The armor is a black iron and mithril alloy, giving the armor an overall dull black appearance.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', 170</ref> It is now worn by [[Thrall]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Cultural references== |
||
| − | There has been some comedic association with Orgrim Doomhammer and the real-life rapper/musician M.C. Hammer. The racial dance of the orcs is that performed by M.C. Hammer in the music video of the song, "You Can't Touch This," and a satirical version of the cover of Hammer's album, "Please Hammer Don't Hurt Them," was submitted to one of Blizzard's fan art contests, with Orgrim depicted on it. |
