==Summary==
Genn Greymane (sometimes spelled as "Graymane") is the current King of Gilneas, and one of the original founders of the Alliance of Lordaeron. He is a large bearish man, a brawny warrior with thick features, a heavy beard, and black and gray armor. Greymane has also been noted for being stubborn, proud, strong-willed, cunning, and arrogant.
During the Second War, Greymane met with the other human leaders at Capital City to hear of Stormwind's fall at the hands of the orcish Horde. Greymane joined the other human leaders in forming the Alliance of Lordaeron to counter the Horde threat, but due to his pride, he offered only token support. After the conclusion of the Second War, Greymane chafed at using Gilnean taxes to help pay for the orc internment camps and Nethergarde Keep. Following the liberation of the orcs from internment camps by the New Horde, Greymane decided that Gilneas could not and would not pay for the wars of other nations, so he withdrew Gilneas from the Alliance, ordered the construction of the Greymane Wall and isolated Gilneas from the rest of the world.
Around the time of the Third War, Greymane instructed Archmage Arugal, a Dalaran wizard loyal to Gilneas, to summon feral worgen to protect Gilneas from the Scourge threat. The plan backfired, and the worgen curse would eventually run rampant among the Gilnean population. In the time between the Third War and the War against the Lich King, the number of those afflicted with the Worgen curse had grown and were now attacking Gilneas City. To counter the threat, Greymane helped to defend the city and aided in the evacuation of citizens to Duskhaven. In the aftermath, Greymane faced the dual threats of the Cataclysm and the Forsaken invasion, culminating in the battle to retake Gilneas City from the Forsaken and witnessing the death of his son and heir, Liam.
Humbled by his son's death and the devastation of his kingdom, Greymane accepted the aid of the night elves, who had offered to relocate Gilnean survivors to Darnassus. In a fit of stubbornness, Greymane was against formally rejoining the Alliance until he had almost lost his wife and daughter during the crossing. After a short layover at Darnassus and reestablishing diplomatic ties with King Varian Wrynn, Greymane becomes a changed man. Greymane becomes a staunch supporter of the Alliance, adding the ferocity of the Gilneans to the considerable might of the Alliance, intent on one day reclaiming his lost kingdom. This intention is later partly realized by the time of the Fourth War, as Gilneas was apparently restored enough to go on the offensive in the Fourth War following the Battle for Lordaeron.

Enhanced Senses (Worgen have heightened senses, including sight, smell, and hearing. Curse of the Worgen Issue 3Curse of the Worgen Issue 5 The worgen curse does more than heighten physical senses, and worgen can see things that no normal human can, such as auras. Eyesight increases in worgen form. Even those that once needed glasses can see as never before and more clearly than ever dreamed possible, though may still need glasses in human form. Genn can see better in his worgen form, even through intense rain. Worgen have a great sense of smell. Worgen can detect the smell of the earth, the flora, the lingering scents of foraging animals and their waste, and every odor is unique and immediately perceptible and identifiable. Worgen can smell blood, meat, and prey from a great distance, and may be able to smell fear,Admiral Ripsnarl the scent of fel,Infernal Brimstone Theory and more. Eric Thibeau claims to smell undeath, hatred, violence, and doubt. Mardigan fought a man who sought a potion to mask his scent from worgen. Worgen have more sensitive hearing. Darius Crowley could not help but overhear conversations under Tal'doren, thanks to his heightened hearing. Being a worgen, hairs on the back of Genn's neck stood on end to alert him of someone behind him Odo the Blindwatcher lost his eyesight long ago and adapted to using his other senses, similar to bats), Curse Manipulation/Corruption (A worgen's bite transmits the Worgen curse, which, in a matter of at most a few hours, turns the afflicted into a worgen, often leaving them in an animalistic state until some manner of treatment is administered,Worgen Starting Zone; World of Warcraft this curse can effect both the living and the undead), Blessed (All worgen have roots in the Emerald Dream through the Wild God, Goldrinn, and as such appear to be "Blessed" by him), Bodily Weaponry (Genn has teeth and claws), Surface Scaling (clung to a wall with little difficulties), Stealth Mastery (Even the most animalistic of worgen can Stealth themselves. hid himself from Sylvanas), Vibration Manipulation (Can cause Shockwaves with his stomps via Thunderclap), Statistics Reduction (Via Horrifying Howl, Shattering Throw, and Intimidating Roar)

Thish Will Work! The strain Some Worgen were exposed to was potent enough to even kill paladins in seconds, with even lesser strains causing bleeding from all facial orifices, skin tearing open and death in seconds,Arthas: Rise of the Lich King, pg. 246 as well as rapid cell degeneration and reducing those affected to a shambling husk incapable of any reason or thought beyond a violent hatred for lifeSide Effects May Include Mild Undeath) Necromancy (Worgen cannot become Forsaken,Cities in Dust The worgen curse makes raising them into undeath far more difficult than it is for normal humans. The worgen curse has roots in both the Emerald Dream (through the wolf Ancient, Goldrinn) and the holy power of the goddess Elune. In addition, those worgen who imbibe the waters of Tal'doren — during the Ritual of Balance,Ultimate Visual Guide, pg. 102 which Greymane did — have a further resistance to the corruption of undeath), Poison Manipulation (Was only eventually knocked out by Sylvanas's amplified poison arrow, with many of the poisons used by the banshee queen killing instantly), Mind Manipulation/Fear Manipulation/Ice Manipulation/Transmutation/Plant Manipulation/Status Effect Inducement/Light Manipulation/Empathic Manipulation/Sleep Manipulation/Power Nullification/Telekinesis/Electricity Manipulation/Darkness Manipulation/Vibration Manipulation/Paralysis Inducement/Explosion Manipulation/Statistics Reduction/Curse Manipulation/ (Via being a Raid Boss, Genn is immune to Mind Control, Fear, Polymorph, and the Frost Nova spells, alongside any other Crowd Control abilities in his verse)
</tabber>
Attack Potency: Mountain level (Fought on even grounds with Nathanos Blightcaller,Stormheim opening; Legion who could overwhelm the combined forces of the Alliance and Horde,For Teldrassil Cinematic is far stronger than fodder animus which can do this), higher in Worgen form (Ragdolled Sylvanas Windrunner in one hit, and utterly overwhelmed Nathanos physically, and could've killed First Arcanist Thalyssra, Rokhan, Princess Talanji, and Possibly Prophet ZulEscape from Stormwind Scenario)
Speed: Average Human movement speed (Standard movement speed for all characters is 6.4008 m/s), Superhuman movement speed in Worgen form (As a Worgen Greymane can run as fast as Saber-Toothed Tigers and various species of wolf and whatnot), at least Subsonic+ reaction and combat speed (Comparable to adventurers capable of dodging bullets at point blank range)
Lifting Strength: At least Class 100, likely higher (Significantly stronger than fodder Dwarf Mages and Priests who are capable of casually lifting and carrying barrels this heavy)
Striking Strength: Mountain level, higher in Worgen Form
Durability: Mountain level (Fought on even grounds with Nathanos Blightcaller and took numerous attacks from him, who could overwhelm the combined forces of the Alliance and Horde), higher in Worgen form (Tanked an amped Arrow from Sylvanas, although was forced out of Worgen Form and was later knocked out, though this could've been from the poison of the arrow)
Stamina: Superhuman (As a Worgen, Greymane has exceptional stamina to hunt all throughout the night, and has not been shown tiring in any fight he's participated in)
Range: Standard Melee Range physically; Extended Melee Range with sword; Tens of Meters with pistol
Standard Equipment: Sword and pistol
Intelligence: Gifted (Genn Greymane is, put in simple terms, an aggressive and stubborn but cunning King, though considered a Tyrant for a time by individuals such as Darius Crowley, he grew into a better king of the worgen with the full support of his people no thanks to his charisma. An excellent fighter- Greymane Fought and beat numerous worgen, oftentimes outnumbered, with just his sword and Blunderbuss, and engaged on even terms with Nathanos Blightcaller for a time, a brilliant Ranger and fighter who never missed a shot on-screen and is by no means a slouch in a pure Melee, as even when stripped down to his twin axes and dogs, Bolvar Fordragon and Varian Wrynn believed an army was required to even think about taking him on. And later showed that he can, to an extent, keep up with those more agile and skilled then he in Sylvanas Windrunner)
Weaknesses: Genn is highly stubborn, prideful, and easy to anger, and was arrogant before the death of his son, Liam Greymane. Worgen must always control their emotions lest they lose themselves to their form's feral instincts. Rage and guilt are two known emotions that elicit a worgen's transformation. When a worgen is driven to anger, or concentrates with a force of will, the beast within will come forward. The Wolfsbane plant is deadly to worgen. Worgen are said to hate fire,Escape from Silverbrook Quest which can be used to get their attention,Sacrifices and can be extremely effective when caught in their furDark Riders (comic) and is a much more painful end than the sword.Curse of the Worgen Issue 4
