Biography
Little is known of this barbaric orc. Yawp either chooses not to speak, or his command of the common tongue is lacking. Some few stories indicate he's an orc from a place known as Gol'Dumar. He claims to be one of the Gol'Dumar Orcs
We do know that at some point Yawp ended up in Amtgardia, living in orcish raider camps and eventually found his way into the arenas of Cor'Anan and Rubiesk. Where he achieved some notoriety in the bloody games under the pseudonym "The Barbaric Yawp." He eventually earned freedom from the fighting pits and made his way to Red Storm where, in his short time in the kingdom, he managed to catch the eye of The Dark Lord, King Smiley Ironfist who bestowed upon him the title of The Dog Whisperer of Emerald Hills, due, in part, to his animal nature and affinity for befriending dogs.
He also rose up against the Valkyrie queen during her reign of terror on his kind if creature. Eventually assassinating and replacing the baron of Red Storm as the Immortan Kal road from the south. His reign brought growth and stability, in large part due to his soul bound elf companion Iladi. Who returned health to the land after all the apocalyptic doom. He tired of life in administration and just left office one day because "reading hard!"
His last known situation was leading mercenaries against a pirate incursion lead by a necromancer pirate known as the dread pirate Bob. It's said that those who wish to join his ranks may set their humanity aside and live like orcs in his warband.
