Alternative biography[edit | hide]
The following biography was supposed to appear on the official (now-defunct) 3DO website, but due to a mistaken link was either never properly available or wasn't available among other biographies during all the dates the website was saved at by the Wayback Machine. A number of people claim they have accessed this biography somewhere on said website. The text was found on maps4heroes.com:
- Few remember a time when Kilgor did not fight alongside his father in many of Krewlod's internal clan wars. On his 18th birthday, Kilgor challenged his father for leadership of the clan. Falling quickly to his son's superior skill and ferocity, some say Kilgor's father died with a smile on his face. Why wouldn't a father be proud of his son's accomplishments?
- Despite being the son of a clan leader, Kilgor's life has not been one of comfort being brought up in the clan's military schooling.
- Knowing he would come of age during the 30 year 'Festival of Life', everything Kilgor has done was to prepare himself for his rise to the Krewlod's throne. His tactics have been called 'reckless' and 'brilliant'. Those who have encountered him on the battlefield and survived, recount stories of his 'insane pleasure' for the bloodlust of battle and the uncontrollable giggles of glee accompanying his berserker's rage. Kilgor has always sought the most chaotic center of the battlefield. To this day, he has always emerged from this chaos as the victor.
- Kilgor's weapon of choice is a large two-handed spiked mace. He was once heard commenting, "You can't hear bones break under a blade."
