Zak and I started out the same way pretty much. I was on my travels when I came across some "orcs" at the orc fort, after leaving the Brigand fort I figured I would kill all these orcs.....I thought they were like the npcs below, ha! I got krimped and one said something I had no idea what it was....and I was klomped. So after coming back a couple times and dieing I left to wonder who these guys were? A few days later I came across two other orcs at the Brit x-roads and one explained to me who they were and how to join. Thats all it took and I was hooked! I made a "Grat" character after reading and seeing that name. I thought it was ok to use a "family" name and used that guy for like 3 days, when some asked if was "kin" to Kurg'Grat and I said.. sure I was, Then Kurg sees me one day and says I need to remake my character, And explained the "Family" name. Azock was my 3rd orc character. From their it took a short time to learn the speech and tactics of the clan. I do have to say, the one orc at the time that helped me along the most was K'Thud, great guy! Snarg told me one day after a boat raid that I did really good and to keep it up and I would move up in the clan...probably within my first year I was given my Grunt quest and had the Grunt ceremony where after I joined the BLoodSkuhlz tribe, I think they had the best lore and the boot color was a plus too! I did a War Boss klomp the first week I was Grunted and ended up winning after some small debate "took my issues to WC" they had a "rematch" between me and Rugorim? where i kicked his ass for cheating the first time around...lol. So here I am some 6+ years later with some of the people I first met and many others along the way that have become great close friends. The tactics, leadership, members and overall clan structure, plus all the Hummies we get to klomp is what brought me here and kept me here! I will never forget my times with everyone in this Clan, Hoowah Bloodclan!
