Jo'ao is a level 80 Elite Forest Troll Rogue.

Second War
Jo'ao fought personally for the Horde during the Second War after the rescue of his leader, Warlord Zul'jin. When Zul'jin told his people that they were no longer in league with the Orgrim Doomhammer's Horde, not all Forest Trolls accepted it, even after being told that Doomhammer abandoned the siege to Quel'Thalas, this group considered Zul'jin's decision an act of treason.

Jo'ao and his companions learned much about treachery and how it was a disaster for any group with the Orcs, thus, they tried to convince Zul'jin to reconsider his decision, but were almost killed by the Warlord's loyalists, Zul'jin ordered that his men didn't kill Jo'ao and his rebels. He said that he would consider the idea, and if the Horde proved itself by gaining the upper hand in this war, the Forest Trolls would rejoin the Horde. But that didn't happen, instead, it became clear that the Horde would be defeated, and thus Zul'jin removed the Forest Trolls officially from the Horde, and mysteriously disappeared.

With Zul'jin gone, Jo'ao and his rebels staged a coup d'etat to put a Presidium in charge of the Amani tribe, with the objective of keeping the order while Zul'jin was gone and make the Amani rejoin the Horde, but the coup failed and Jo'ao and his rebels had to flee Zul'Aman if they wanted to survive.

Life in exile
After the failed coup d'etat, the Amani rebels were scattered all around the Eastern Kingdoms and started living as independent trolls.

Jo'ao lived in the shadows of Lordaeron, stealing food from small human villages to survive, this didn't last long, however, as he quickly found a job as a mercenary in a Mercenary Camp, filled with exiled gnolls, ogres and even other Forest Trolls.

As a mercenary, Jo'ao served several people, his combat prowess was admirable especially when he was together with other Rogues. Despite his muscular body and brute force, he was easily able to blend with his surroundings and attack enemies from behind, because of his body shape he was capable of serving as a protector in emergencies.

Several were the enemies who fell beneath the might of Jo'ao and his partners, the Forest Troll was specialized in both armed and unarmed combat.

The Scourge of Lordaeron
When Lordaeron was invaded by the Scourge, Jo'ao and all his partners were hired by King Terenas Menethil II himself to fight for the Alliance against the undead hordes. Jo'ao and the mercenaries were capable of repelling the Scourge from Lordaeron's minor cities, the human general responsible for leading them ordered the group to advance to Andorhal and protect the town from the remaining undead, a task they were able to do with success alongside Andorhal's Local Defense...to a point, Lordaeron was eventually destroyed.

When the Dreadlords Balnazzar, Detheroc and Varimathras arrived to secure Lordaeron for the Scourge, Andorhal fell prey of their might. Jo'ao and his men resisted alongside the humans but were defeated, of the mercenaries, only Jo'ao survived, thanks to a Gnoll Warden that blocked a fatal spell from a Skeleton Mage with his own mace, the gnoll was destroyed by an Abomination aftewards.

To survive, Jo'ao said that he would serve the dreadlords, with only his mortal life as the price to be payed.

Jo'ao was grateful to Balnazzar and went to the frontlines of the Scourge at the place which would later be known as the Western Plaguelands.

A New Power in Lordaeron
Jo'ao and a Scourge contingent were called by Balnazzar to the Capital City of Lordaeron and protect it from Sylvanas's rebels, the Forest Troll was in charge of defending the city from Grand Marshal Garithos' Alliance forces.

Jo'ao was gravely wounded and forced to retreat, Garithos' forces were filled with a lust for revenge because of what the Legion did to Lordaeron, the troll went to the other side of the city seeking shelter to heal himself from his wounds, but he met The Dark Lady's forces, and Varimathras...

Jo'ao escaped through the west side of the city, the Infernals that followed him were intercepted by the Alliance Remnants, indirectly allowing Jo'ao to escape safely.
