Grogan Shaman

Grogan Shamans are very few and far between. It is the nature of the Grogan to be weapon fighters and be on
the frontlines of any battle. The Shaman on the other hand, is a wiser, older and more self-controlled than the
rest of its kin.

Make no mistake, that does not make a Shaman any more of a pushover or less dangerous. In some cases they
could cause even more damage and wreak havoc than most of their brute headed counterparts. They are
respected by all other Grogan for a reason.
