Around Azeroth: Gronn fishing
Ali was given a quest to take down some Gronn. Upon arriving in the cave, the Gronn charged at him but slipped on the meat and bones littering the cave floor and died of head trauma. Since Ali still got quest credit, he kept the accidental nature of the death quiet so as not to lose his badass reputation.

That's a magnataur. Gronn are the huge cyclopean progenitors of the Ogres in Outland. I rather prefer the magnataur, myself; Durn the Hungerer was nearly as bad as the Fel Reaver in terms of sneak-up-and-kill-you nastiness.

This. Not a gronn.

I agree, I was confused...this isn't a Gronn.
I'm sure it doesn't work without the pun, but there's equally as bloody and full-o'-gore caves with Gronn in them.

If you want to see Gronn, go to Gruul's Lair. Or the mountain slopes in the western Nagrand.
That thing there is, as stated above, a magnataur.
Big big fail

Well done, Elizabeth. Now I feel even more of a massive nerd for knowing the difference between a gronn and a magnataur :(

So, for the sake of a bad pun, the magnataurs have now contacted Deed Poll.

Of course, he's a warlock. Only way he can kill something is accidental. :)

true, we want to torture, it's such a shame things die from it.

Kinda creepy...

What?

What a coincidence! That's the same site where I met your boyfriend! He said his name was Suzy, but something makes me suspect there's more to it than that.

This either is a reference...or should be referenced in the future.

Awww...the original post was removed, making me the original post now. Without the original-original post, my new original post is an odd original post indeed.

... That is a Magnataur. Not a Gronn. I'm sorry, you fail at being a WoW Nerd. Which is bad. Yes, yes, we KNOW it makes a great pun for the title, but... It's wrong. Very, very wrong.
