Kalnagg Ragescar

"You think me unnatrual? You think my strength artificial? Know this, pup, I was butchering dreanei children and burning human cities to the ground before your whore of a mother ever brought you screaming into this world."

Early Life
"What do you want to hear? That I was once a simple man, a trivial nomad who spent his days hunting Clefthoof and teaching his son how to properly shoot a bow?"

Kalnagg was born the first and only child of Cormak, warrior of the Shadowmoon Clan, somewhere in what is now referred to Shadowmoon Valley. Born decades before the Orcs' corruption, Kalnagg was raised as a nomad, constantly moving from place to place in the vast valley that was the ancestral home of the Shadowmoon. He was taught the skills expected of him by his father, and he grew into a respectable, though unremarkable, member of his clan. He married a young woman named Magashala at the age of 23, and shortly afterwards his wife gave birth to a son. His life was a simple one, and he was, perhaps for the only time in his life, truly happy.

In response Ner'zhul's cry for war against the Dreanei, Kalnagg did as his Chieftain commanded, taking up an axe and assaulting the walls of Karabor. He spared none, butchering every man, woman and child that he saw. Shortly after Gul'dan's rise to power and the Legion's arrival on Dreanor, Kalnagg, along with nearly all of the Orcish populace, drank of Mannorth's blood, transforming him into a bloodthirsty juggernaut eager for war.

The First and Second Wars
"You call these petty skirmishes glorious battles? You should've seen the Wars."

When the Dark Portal opened, Kalnagg left his family in the care the Warsong, who had been charged to stay back and defend the Portal, and marched forth with his father Cormak to wage war on the denizens of Azeroth. During the First War, he adapted quickly to the chaos of combat, and soon became a formidable warrior. Like nearly all Orcs under the Blood Curse, he was totally ruthless and savage, and is rumored to have even slain his first human with his bare hands.
