She was inducted into the warlock-controlled Stormreaver clan and quickly became the chief interpreter of the Shadow Council and Gul'dan's personal spy and assassin. Having traveled throughout Draenor, Garona was well-versed in the culture of the orcs, making her an invaluable asset to the Shadow Council. Having learned his sister had borne a child, he began searching for his niece, a search that would stretch on for many years. Her birth mother's brother however, the Vindicator Maraad, did not care that Garona was half orc. Their claims and beliefs of her being "ugly and deformed" would reflect how she felt about herself for years to come. Garona was raised in barracks with her father's people and hated by the larger orcs for being different. Gul'dan had her magically aged and tortured, and eventually used a powerful magical spell to control her mind to ensure obedience. The result was a child that, as discovered later, looked surprisingly human. The birth of Garona was orchestrated by Gul'dan, who "bred" one of his orcish warriors to a draenei female. Her clothes, tattoo, and haircut are similar to 2003's orc assassin concept art by Samwise Didier, implying this may have been an older picture of Garona and not an unknown assassin. Her leg structure has nothing in common with the draenei's though. She also mentions to Maraad that her feet are "almost like hooves." Horns and the tail are missing, although it is possible that they have been physically removed or simply are rudimentary and hidden under her clothes and hair. Her only draenei features are the eye glows (not white, however, but purple) and the structure of her forehead. In the World of Warcraft: The Comic, she is portrayed, similar to her older renditions, with dominant orcish features. Although Lantresor's model may just be using an orc model due to the lack of a true half-draenei model in-game (in the same way that half-elves are represented by elven models in game), Garona looks like him, without draenei features. However, in World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, there is a half-orc half-draenei blademaster in Nagrand - Lantresor of the Blade, leader of the Boulderfist ogres - who reuses Rend Blackhand's orc model lacking draenei features and human features. With the recent revelation of the appearances of the true draenei and their eredar-like forms - it was hard to believe that Garona was half-draenei since she lacked their cranial features, leg structure, presence of a tail, and hooves - her prowess as an assassin makes it unlikely she is "half-uncorrupted" draenei. ![]()
