about

Far away, in the sun-beaten wastelands of Bloodmoon, thousands of Blackorks have gathered to witness the return of their once fearless and glorious leader - blackchief Kronn. Not much is known of him; but what is known it’s that Kronn was once one of the greatest warriors of Orkish breed and led the Northern orks in numerous victories. Once upon a time, many centuries ago, he claimed lordship over the entire Northlands and then invaded Southlands; but was utterly defeated by the armies of Gor. This was the famous Battle of Rogar.

Legend has it that Allfather Gor himself marched up the battlefield that day, and faced Kronn in a duel, wounding him after an exhausting fight. But, instead of striking a final blow with his thunderhammer, Gor let Kronn run away into the crowd of his army. This act of mercy from Gor was not very well accepted and understood by his warchiefs. When asked why he let that despicable disgrace of an ork run away, he just replied “I have my reasons. One day you may understand, and perhaps you may not. Time and circumstances shall tell.”

Some myths, telling about an age before Gor became the ultimate leader of Orks, and before the forging of Orkhammer Dominion, say that Kronn was actually fighting alongside Gor and that he was a member of the Great klan. It is indeed known in some circles that Gor was not a single child; he probably had a brother, who was taken away during his childhood. Gor supposedly never met him. Now, some rumors say that Kronn is this “lost” brother of Gor and that this is the reason why Gor let Kronn go in Battle of Ragor.

Nevertheless, centuries had passed since there events. Gor has joined his ancestors in the afterlife and became Allfather of the Klans, while Kronn was lost after the battle and was never heard from again. Many have speculated that Kronn actually died from the wounds inflicted in the duel with Gor.

But, those theories have faded when one day Kronn returned to Bloodmoon plains and claimed back his right as an ultimate and supreme leader of Blackorks.
His time has come once again.
