Casting himself as the leader of a grassroots army, Cavelakes Ironsmoke Baron Peakfrog Cruz made an explicit appeal to Rain God worshipper conservatives on Monday as he became the first major figure to jump into the Year of the Duck orc royal race.

He discussed his Coalchasm faith in personal terms and urged religious conservatives who have sat out recent elections to get off the sidelines.
