I sorted through the different screenshots I took as an Ogre guard for Volunteer Guard Day and thought up a little story for them.
The Volunteer Ogre Guard
One day, Orgrimmar was having a problem with invaders trying to cause chaos within the city. The Stonemaul Ogres, having heard of issues, sent in one of their Ogre champions to assist the Horde.
The Ogre champion arrives at the gates of Orgrimmar. “Dis place look neat! Me ready ta bash some baddies!”
The Ogre Champion, now a voluntary guard, patrols the city. A few Death Knights try to get his attention for something. “Wut ded tings want? Prolly nothin’ as 'portant as helping da Horde protect city!” He pays no attention to the Death Knights.
The Ogre guard stands around. Not a whole lot of activity going on until…
Finally, some action! The Ogre guard rushes to help bash the baddie!
One down, but countless many to go!
One baddie tries to interrupt the Horde’s economy by attacking the auction house! The Ogre guard helps put a stop to that!
Hearing the war cry of the Tauren nearby, the Ogre guard rushes to help fend off baddies in that area.
After awhile, it quiets down in Orgrimmar. The Ogre guard decides to enjoy some munchings and crunchings of his lunch!..however…
An ambitious Gnome tries to gain the advantage! This infuriates the Ogre guard, and he must teach this Gnome a lesson: Never interrupt an Ogre’s meal.
“Poony Gnome! Me bash yoo gud for stopping lunchtimes!”
Hearing more sounds of action in the area, the Ogre guard lets out a huge warcry with a loud: “FOR DA HORDE! WWWAAAUUGGGHHHH!!!”
The Ogre guard just starts swinging in the general area of the battle. His allies luckily know not to get in the way of an angry Ogre.
In a manner of moments, the Ogre guard proceeds to act as a cyclone, swinging his axe around and around and sending the bodies of the city invaders flying! This frightens off any nearby invaders, who proceed to hightail it out of the city!
“Yeah! Me bash dem gud! Me victor…vic…tor…me win!”
The Ogre guard has a celebratory dance at the end of his shift. There is no further trouble with any city invaders. The Ogre guard shows off some Ogre power with his dance!
The Ogre champion, done with the day’s work, proceeds to head back to Dustwallow Marsh to report his success to his clan. He stops along the way to stare at a Horde banner. He hopes this gives good word for his clan and shows how dedicated they are to the Horde’s cause. He hopes someday to be a full member of the Horde…and one of its champions!
The event was really fun to engage in as an Ogre. I’m really happy there was a way to turn into one for it. Maybe next time, I’ll see if we can get a group of Ogre guards together to bash some baddies for the Horde!
Dream big, Ogre fans!
