This article contains lore taken from Warcraft novels, novellas, or short stories.

Torgus was a prestigious dragon rider of the Dragonmaw clan during and after the Second War. Markers and medallions from Doomhammer, Blackhand, and various other clan leaders such as Zuluhed dangled from the axe harness around his chest.[1] He managed to get word of Gul'dan's betrayal back to his chieftain and the rest of the Horde after he saw his fellow rider, Bradok being killed by the warlock. Torgus brought the news to Doomhammer himself during the siege of Capital City.[2]

After the war, he was assigned to Grim Batol, under Nekros Skullcrusher, where the clan was keeping a large portion of the red dragonflight enslaved. During one particular mission, he and his draconic mount encountered the black Dragon Aspect, Deathwing. Deathwing attacked Torgus and his fellow dragonriders, and Torgus narrowly managed to escape back to Grim Batol to warn his clan of the coming danger.[3]

Torgus' fate afterwards is unknown.
