User:Mig64/Guénon

Guénon is the character that Mig64 uses to play World of Warcraft. He was created in january of 2010 (during Wrath of the Lich King).

The beast troll
Guénon's birthplace is unknown, he was found by a female shaman in the middle of the wilds of Echo Isles, as the Darkspear Trolls evacuated from the island during Zalazane's revolt. He seemed to be 19 years old and was extremely wild, his strange habits and that fact that his only clothing was simple linen pants, made the woman leave him behind. Guénon didn't know how to speak neither Orcish nor Zandali, and it also seemed that his only friend was a Bloodtalon Raptor. Guénon fought against some of the Hexed Trolls but their Voodoo scared him off the island alongside his raptor companion.

Upon arriving at Durotar's shore, he was found by Zjolnir, the raptor handler of the recently founded Sen'jin Village, Guénon seemed aggressive to the other troll but he quickly calmed down as he found out that Zjolnir wasn't there to cause any harm both to him and Gorossauro.

Zjolnir felt pity of Guénon, and decided to take him to Sen'jin Village, there, Guénon learned to socialize and speak, something he did very quickly. Now, Guénon had a decent set of clothes, his tusks were arranged, is capable of speaking Zandali and Orcish and is ready to join the world of civilization.

The life of Guénon and his raptor got a lot better since those days and as a retribution, the jungle troll pledged his services to the Darkspear and the Horde. He trained several years alongside Gorossauro in order to become a powerful hunter, a class that fits his link with the beasts of the wild.

Wrath of the Lich King
Several years later, the Lich King returned and the Scourge started to wreak havoc on all Azeroth, and by the same time, Guénon concluded his training and was now ready to enter the fray against Arthas' undead legions.

Guénon, however, did not want to officially join the army of the Horde, instead, he decided to serve his faction on his own, and started his own journey.

Journey in Outland
Before Guénon could fight at Northend, he felt that he should visit the previous war's battleground, in this case, Outland. So, he and his loyal raptor partner entered the Dark Portal, most of the Horde forces were leaving the destroyed planet, but with the help of the remaining forces at Thrallmar he managed to better equip himself for his future battles.

Guénon and Gorossauro passed five weeks travelling around all Outland, doing several favors for Horde and Neutral forces of the planet. And, while resting in Shadowmoon Village, he received an unexpected visit, it was a Netherwing Drake, his name was Horzinaku.

Guénon vs. Dragonmaw
Horzinaku heard incredible stories about Guénon, and asked a small favor for him, the Dragonmaw Clan had imprisioned his mate, a Veridian Netherwing Drake named Yoza, deep inside the Netherwing Mines, and said that Guénon would be well rewarded if he saved her. Guénon quickly accepted, but he recognized that he would not be able to do this alone, so he asked Horzinaku to bring aerial support for the assault.

Guénon, Horzinaku and the dragonflight he recruited met near the Black Temple and after all the plans were made, Guénon and Gorossauro hopped on Horzinaku's back and they launched their assault at the Netherwing Ledge.

The aerial attacks were enough to distract the Dragonmaw forces outside the mines, Guénon and Gorossauro had to enter the mines and save Yoza themselves. Invading the mines wasn't really hard as there were only miners, foremans, and a few beasts inside, both troll and raptor didn't have problems dealing with them at all.

Guénon and Gorossauro found Yoza at the heart of the mines, they were finishing removing all of her chains when they were interrupted by a Dragonmaw Skybreaker, he was supposed to ride Yoza once she was totally submited to slavery. After a brutal fight, the Fel Orc was defeated and Yoza was free, she then flew outside the mines with Guénon and his pet raptor on her back.

After seeing Yoza, Horzinaku ordered his forces to retreat. Guénon, Gorossauro, Horzinaku and Yoza flew to Shattrath City, where both dragonflight could live in peace as refugees. Horzinaku thanked Guénon a lot and gave him Sen'jin Beakblade Longrifle, which he found in the corpse of another Horde adventurer he sent to do the same task he asked the troll for.

The gun was extremely powerful and Guénon was pleased, after some time in Outland, it was time to return to Azeroth, the troll took Shattrath's portal to Orgrimmar.

Arrival in Northrend
Guénon arrived at the Warsong Hold in Borean Tundra, there, he started to make his name inside the Horde's elite forces, and started travelling all over the continent, becoming well known and exalted by the infamous Northrend Vanguard, which made of him a force to be respected.

The Ravenous Jormungar
During his travels in the Storm Peaks, Guénon got lost from his pet raptor, he managed to find some raptor footprints on the snow after three days of search, those footprints led him to the Hibernal Cavern, where a small war between Ravenous Jormungars and Icemaw Bears ensued. Gorossauro's presence was somehow accepted by the Jormungars and the raptor decided to enter the fray on their side, Guénon did the same in order to save his lost friend.

After the battle, most Icemaw were decimated, and Guénon was grateful for the Jormungar having accepted Gorossauro in their cave, and was ready to leave when one of them decided to follow him.

Guénon named the Jormungar as Gorescream and she became his second companion.

To find a home
Now, with a flying mount of his own(Yoza), Guénon finally arrived in the magical city of Dalaran. His forces needed a place to stay while the militia didn't have it's own base.

After several walks around the city, Guénon found a place for his "people", after a small contract between Guénon, Innkeeper Uda and Stable Master Tassia Whisperglen, in which they would help in cleaning and administrating both stables and inn in exchange of a shelter for them and Guénon's pets(the last ones in the stables, of course).

Yoza decided to stay atop the Violet Citadel, where she could see both Icecrown and Crystalsong Forest.

Many months have passed, and they didn't have enough money to build a stronghold yet, it was when Guénon remembered of Alexi Barov.

Alexi Barov is in debt with Guénon for his great help against his human brother, he didn't know the terrible destiny that his servants had during the conflict at Borean Tundra, so Guénon could still ask favors for him.

Leaving the rest of his forces in Dalaran, Guénon went to the Western Plaguelands at the Eastern Kingdoms, to meet with the undead Barov. Since Alexi Barov didn't know the terrible destiny that his servants had faced, Guénon said that they left him behind in the last minute and disappeared, indignated and feeling even more in debt with the troll hunter, Alexi gave over thirty servants of his to permanently serve Guénon, and that he would give the money necessary to build the milita's stronghold.

And in almost no time, Goroscream Hold, the base of operations of Guénon's Forces, was done. Although Uda and Tassia were no longer necessary, Guénon sent two of his recently hired servants to work for them as a token of his gratitude.

With a base of operations, Guénon felt that his militia should have a more "professional" name, and so he renamed it to Goroscream Forces.

The Siege of Naxxramas
After a long time o preparation, Guénon heard that the Alliance was preparing to lay siege on Naxxramas, while the Horde, prepared to attack Azjol-Nerub. Although the Goroscream was meant to aid the Horde, Guénon wished to help the Alliance, so he could have his revenge against Kel'Thuzad. To grant Goroscream participation against Azjol-Nerub and attack Naxxramas, Guénon left Kredo in charge of the advance against Anub'arak and the Twilight Hammer, while he, Yoza and his pets, Gorossauro and Gorescream, attacked Naxxramas alongside the Alliance.

The adventurers from the Alliance were almost ready to invade Naxxramas when Guénon landed with his small team, at first, one of the human soldiers, Marf Saintangel, rejected Guénon, stating that they had no time to lose with Horde "whelps". Guénon, although indignated, said that he was there to help and that he had important matters to settle with Kel'Thuzad.

After some time pondering, the Alliance accepted the troll and his companions in their ranks. Guénon and the Alliance attacked Naxxramas with energy, destroying quarter after quarter, until the path to Sapphiron's Lair was open.

However, not even Sapphiron's might was able to stop the strenght of the combined might of the adventurers, mainly Guénon's shots and Marf's magic, and the path to Kel'Thuzad was finally revealed.

The adventurers proceeded without interruptions, and were finally face-to-face with the Archlich, Guénon picked up his gun and pointed it to Kel'Thuzad. Yoza roared with anger, both her and the troll were ready to have their revenge against Kel.

Kel'Thuzad didn't even rememeber who Guénon or Yoza were, and laughed at them, Marf Saintangel started charging a Smite spell, but was frozen by the Archlich.

Kel'Thuzad attacked the whole raid with a Shadow Fissure, consuming half of the Alliance's forces in darkness and killing them, with exception of Marf, because he was inside an icy prison and was free because it was consumed by the fissure. Marf and Guénon started running around Kel's room and attacking him with everything they could, Gorossauro climbed on Kel'Thuzad's back and started slashing him, part of the Lich's corporeal form started to collapse because of Gorescream's Acid Spit and burn because of Yoza's flame. Meanwhile, the remaining Alliance adventurers hit Kel'Thuzad with all their weapons and spells.

This time, Kel'Thuzad was fighting an entire army by himself, with Guénon laughing at him for the Archlich was facing a similar situation the troll had back at Borean Tundra, Guénon's laugh angered Kel, and he unleashed a strong ice spell, which frozen every single soldier in his room.

Marf repelled the ice encasing with Power Word: Shield and dispelled the prisons at his partners as fast as he could. Kel'Thuzad, angered by the Battlepriest's persistence, pierced the human's chest with one of his chains, before dying, Marf dispelled Guénon's icy prison and used a mighty healing spell using his remaining forces, making Kel'Thuzad's freezing fury in vain.

The lich was angry and desperated, so he decided to raise every killed men into undead, he succeeded, in a matter of seconds, the Alliance had to fight their former "brothers" alongside the Scourge's Archlich.

Guénon and Yoza remembered when the members from Guénon's Forces were risen as undead and started consuming Horzinaku, these memories made both troll and drake enraged and stronger. Gorescream used her Acid Spit to corrode the icy prison encasing her, while Gorossauro destroyed his prison with his blood-hungry claws.

The battle proceeded, with the Alliance in disadvantage, every men killed represented one more Scourge zombie to fight. Guénon, used his Volley shot and destroyed a large group, Gorescream entangled the Scourge around her with her mighty body, while Gorossauro cut the zombies' bodies with a hit-and-run tactic.

Thinking that the party should end, Kel'Thuzad used another Shadow Fissure, this one killing every single member of the raid, Guénon, his friends and the Alliance adventurers met demise...if not for one thing: Marf's corpse woke up later than the others, now undead, he protected himself with another Power Word: Shield -blocking Kel'Thuzad's offensives against him- and revived as many Alliance soldiers as he could. Marf, although revived, wasn't under Kel'Thuzad's control, so he ressurected Guénon and escaped using a hearthstone before he fell to the lich's undead mind-controlling powers and became the raid's latest enemy. Guénon then ressurected his pets, but none of the risen soldiers were able to revive Yoza.

Feeling the pain of another loss to the Scourge, Guénon enraged even more, his anger became energy and with it, he started putting as many bombs and bullets as he could inside his gun, preparing the ultimate shot. Meanwhile, the Alliance and Guénon's pets started fighting Kel'Thuzad again. After considerable time, Guénon's gun was ready to shot, so he fired the strongest Explosive Shot that anyone there has ever saw. All the bullets and explosives inserted were fired at the same time and the chain reaction of explosions that hit Kel'Thuzad was so strong, that his corporeal form was completely destroyed, he disappeared with a final cry of pain, vowing that the Lich King would present all those who fought him with their graves.

The battle was finally over, Guénon had his revenge, the Alliance defeated Kel'Thuzad. After giving a long hug in his pets and crying for such an important victory, Guénon proceeded to see Yoza's corpse...

The Alliance survivors, in retribution for Guénon's help, aided him in transporting her corpse to the Path of the Titans, where she was buried.

After a ceremony in her honor, a gnome gave Guénon a Flying Machine, so they could fly back to their base, and so they did.

Weeks later, a Scourge Expedition found Yoza's corpse and raised it's corporeal half as a Frost Wyrm.

The Fall of the Lich King
The time for the final assault at Icecrown Citadel had come, and Guénon, using the Flying Machine given by the gnome, entered the fray with ground support of Gorossauro and Gorescream. With military training given by the recently hired fel orc mercenary Kortoh Stripribs, the formely Barov servants (now called as Battle Peasants) gave air support using stolen gryphons and wyvern and from the land using mechanostriders stolen from dead Alliance warriors.

The battle proceeded intense, and the Scourge received aerial reinforcements from Frost Wyrms, one of them was Yoza. Yoza attacked the Alliance-Horde forces mercilessly and viciously, leading the frost dragons to great victories in small time. However, this wouldn't last too long, because she met Guénon once again, with him and his Battle Peasants bringing the other wyrms down, the troll and his former advisor engaged an intense aerial combat.

Guénon eventually won, hitting the frost wyrm in the head several times in a row, and she fell to the ground, the troll landed by her side, and left his Flying Machine, as he got near the wyrm's head, Yoza was dazed, lost in memories of her past life, with Horzinaku.

The troll got face-to-face to her, and put his hand on her skull-like head, stating that she was a powerful ally. Yoza then remembered when Horzinaku and Guénon saved her from the Dragonmaw, and finally came to her senses, free of the Lich King's grasp. Yoza quickly flew high into the sky, with a powerful roar, she spoke to the troll in a death knight-like voice, that she was a fool of letting herself be turned into this, and then she came to the ground, saying that "Yoza was back into service".

Happy for having his advisor back, Guénon hopped on Yoza's back and Kortoh Stripribs took the Flying Machine, and both re-entered the fray, with the command of the ground units given to Kredo.

When the group of adventurers managed to penetrate the citadel, Guénon ordered his men to stay outside and stop any kind of Scourge reinforcements.

Guénon, alongside many Alliance and Horde adventurers and Tirion Fordring, was there during the final conflict against the Lich King at the Frozen Throne.

The fight was intense, and when the battle went inside Frostmourne itself, Guénon wasn't there, after receiving a fatal blow, Guénon feigned his death as his troll regeneration healed him, thus, he avoided being sent into Frostmoure. When he had been enough healed, the troll tried to fight with the Lich King alone.

Guénon was pretty agile so Arthas took a long time to lend a single hit at the troll because of his heavy gear, as Guénon shot the Lich King with all his might, the Lich King managed to cut his chest and kick him, it was enough and Guénon was knocked out.

When Arthas prepared to land the final blow, Frostmourne shattered and the souls of his companions were released. He is then healed and saved from death, once the Lich King was defeated and after hearing Bolvar Fordragon's warning, Guénon rushed outside Icecrown Citadel to destroy the remaining Scourge with his Goroscream Forces.

Zalazane's Fall
As Guénon and his forces prepared to leave Northrend at Vengeance Landing, Kredo found a poster talking about the recovery of the Echo Isles. The furbolg called his attention, and after analyzing the poster, flashes of his life as a barbarian troll at the isles came to his head. Mainly the day he had to leave the island because of Zalazane's Hexed Trolls. Guénon was also in debt with the Darkspear Tribe, after all, it was thanks to them that he met life-in-society, so the troll strongly felt he needed to participate in that battle.

Guénon took Gorossauro and ordered Kredo and Yoza to watch over Goroscream Hold while he didn't return.

When the battle was finally over, Guénon helped the Darkspear in building their new home at the Echo Isles, and left.

The Fall of Goroscream
After the fall of the Zalazane, Guénon returned to Goroscream Hold at Western Plaguelands. Once he received news that the Horde had a new warchief, the troll travelled to Orgrimmar to see what plans Garrosh Hellscream had for the faction. Though neither Guénon nor Garrosh saw each other during the troll's stay at the Orcish capital, Guénon found out that Hellscream had expansionist plans for the Horde.

With this in mind, Guénon devised a plan to ensure Horde domination at northern Eastern Kingdoms, so he could gain Garrosh's support so that the warchief wouldn't interneve in the Goroscream's exisence, the same way the troll did with Thrall (but with other manners).

The Goroscream advance and claimed the Alliance-Argent Dawn base of Chillwind Camp for the Horde, later, he gave reinforcements for the Forsaken assaulting Southshore, and conquered several other Alliance bases.

The Alliance soon heard about it and prepared a counteroffensive, since those "Horde" attacks didn't have Hellscream's authorization, the warchief sent Eitrigg and Horde agents to aid the Alliance Counteroffensive, and thus, the Goroscream Wars started. The Alliance's counterattack was massive and the Goroscream Forces met several defeats and the battle was taken to Goroscream Hold. The Goroscream Forces resisted valiantly against the Alliance but they were utterly destroyed, Yoza died, Gorescream died, Kortoh was sent to the Stormwind Stockades...the only survivors were Guénon and Gorossauro, the troll almost collapsed when he saw what had become of his militia, but Kredo's words managed to calm him down a bit and give him a new mission: to join the ranks of the Darkspear Trolls and help Vol'jin in preventing the Horde from collapsing thanks for the tension risen by Garrosh. With Gorossauro in his arms, Guénon departed for his new journey, and Kredo finally managed to rest in peace, going to the Spirit World.

Return to the Horde
The Horde Agents left the Alliance Counteroffensive before they could reach Goroscream Hold, so Guénon was unaware that his own warchief gave support to his militia's demise, this made him accept his new journey. Since he covered his face with a Snowserpent Mail Helm during the Goroscream Showdown, there was no way to recognize him without the helmet.

The troll hunter and his Bloodtalon Raptor made their first stop at Orgrimmar, he saluted the Warchief at Grommash Hold and pledged his services to the Horde, only to be driven out by the Kor'kron Elite Guard under Hellscream's orders, because he was a troll. Angry at his new warchief and not believing that he fought so hard in an allout war to please "a bastard Brown Abomination", Guénon and Gorossauro went directly to the Sen'jin Village, he was greeted by Zjolnir, the only one who remembered him. After spending some time talking about a part of his adventures to Zjolnir, both trolls went to the Echo Isles, so Guénon could formally introduce himself to Vol'jin. The Shadow Hunter distrusted Guénon at first for he thought he came from nowhere and couldn't remember him as a Darkspear troll, but Zjolnir told the Darkspear chieftain how he found Guénon in the day of Zalazane's revolt.

Vol'jin felt pity of Guénon for all he passed in that time and praised Zjolnir for what he did, and accepted the troll hunter into the Darkspear's ranks.

Zul'Aman
Guénon recovered his reputation within' the Horde (mainly the Darkspear Trolls), and received an invitation from Vol'jin himself to join the fight against the Amani-Zandalar Alliance at Zul'Aman, to prevent King Rastakhan from building a new troll empire. Guénon, of course, accepted the invitation and is now working for the chieftain at the Ghostlands.
