Gruezak is a campaign-exclusive hero and is not playable in custom-made maps. However, his portrait is available in map-editor and can be chosen if a custom hero is created on the map. He is based off the hero Gurnisson.
Story
Horn of the Abyss
Gruezak works for Bofmog as a secret agent. His occupation as a cook is a cover for his real work, and he enjoys letting his brutish appearance fool others into underestimating his cunning.
Heroes of Might and Magic IV
Gruezak survived The Reckoning and appeared as a Thief on Axeoth.
|
"Gruezak started as a cook in Kilgor's army but deserted shortly before the final battle that brought about the Reckoning. Many of the orc tribes were wiped out during that war, including his own. Now, Gruezak, like so many orcs, has resorted to banditry and other crimes simply to survive." — Biography |
