There is secret powers for the Orcs... well, a secret heritage due to them sharing a similar background to that of the Humans: originally a Titanforged Race, only for the local power that was affecting their world to slowly corrupt and infect the servitor creations and cause them to become flesh-and-blood instead over the slow course of generations. In the case of the Orcs: they were a degenerate race several generations removed from Grond: a mighty creation of the Titan Aggramar which was born to cleanse the highly-aggressive plantlife of Draenor in order to keep it from devouring the planets' Biosphere entirely. The Evergrowth seeped it's roots into the living mountain to break it apart: only for those fragments to become The Colossals; while they were slightly weaker than Grond they were also more intelligent and Aggramar tasked the Colossals with continuing with the work for the Titan even after he was called away. The Colossals would do battle with the Evergrowth and it's subsequent lesser selves known as the Sporemounds; with the Colossals giving rise to the Magnaron, the Gronn, the Ogron, the Ogres, and finally the Orcs. The fact that the Orcs were a degenerate race designed initially by Aggramar as little more than a walking talking herbicide: only for them to become a powerful fighting force that was hired by the Burning Legion as the Old Horde; only for them to break away from their pact and fight back against them and eventually taking the fight to Argus and defeating the Legion and saving Aggramar is a power-move worthy of the ages.

Giant elemental named Grond corrects the balance of Draenor but dies in the process before finishing the job. Stone giants rose from his corpse and finished the job.

I dont count myself amongst the hardcore Warcraft lore fanatics, but indeed I knew of Broxigar, a true legend.

I don't care what blizzard thought, that axe should have been the arms artifact weapon. Yes it is more druidic in nature but 1 it has a bad ass story many warriors would quickly come around to, 2 the druid look would just be the default because you know they were have alternate looks, and 3 we were fighting the legion and this was the one weapon even rumored to have hurt sargares so yeah that should have been the first weapon they went to find. I thought that the reason it wasn't the artifact was because it was lost but no it somehow got back to azeroth so again it should have been the artifact weapon. Imagine if instead it was lost but then thura found it when she joined the space faring expedition because she wanted to finish what her uncle started. Or have demon hunters find it and then give it to the horde as a peace offering. What I am saying is the axe of cenarius should have been apart of legion in some way.

BRUH!!! Broxigar is my favorite character in all of the lore and I find it to be a crying shame that he hadn't gotten more attention in game during the Legion expansion.

I loved the novel about Broxigar. What a badass orc to personally stop Sargeras from coming through. Tough bit of irony that he made such an impression regarding the potential of Orcs to the Legion.

1:43 "What the two found made the 2 orcs stop in their tracks." And made them act like chickens apparently. And if you ask me in regards to Thura. I honestly feel like she could have been used in Varok's arc in BFA. Maybe Thura hears of her uncle's "betrayal" and seeks him out. Ending up accompanying him on his journey to find Thrall and later begin the rebellion against Sylvanas. Perhaps Thura could have even lended Varok the axe of Cenarius for his Mak'gora. It would have been a bit poetic. An axe imbued with life to be used against an agent of death.

broxigar proves that all you need is a weapon to have an important legacy

honestly you kinda downplayed his fight with sargaras. he didn't just injure him, he his literally the only mortal who ever managed to even scratch his real body.

It has been some time since I read those books. Brox was the character I liked most in them.

I was reminded of Bwonsamdi the other day, and I'd love to know more about his antics. Somebody described him as one of Wow's all-powerful entities who's actually good at his job.
