Hogger
World of Warcraft
Evil: Murderer, pillager
Insanity: Savagery, Primal
Powers: Can kill numerous people without special powers, unbeatable (heroic)
Occupation: self proclaimed 'King of Forest', chieftain of the Riverpaw Gnolls, Destroyer of n00bs, and the Bane of Elwynn Forest
 
Description: Unlike most villains in World of Warcraft, Hogger was not quite as destructive and was a rather mediocre villain. However, Hogger is absolutely infamous in the WoW community for being one of the first elite mobs that you can face. It is probable that Hogger is one of the most well-known mobs in the game for butchering low level characters relentlessly. Back in Classic WoW, Hogger's health pool was 666, the number of the antichrist. For a low level mob, Hogger was hard as hell, being one of the first elite enemies Alliance players faced. Not only was he strong himself, but if you attacked or were attacked in the wrong place at the wrong time by him, you better use every advantage that you have or you'll be forced to spend a fortune on repairs after death. Over time, Hogger killed thousands upon thousands of players, actually having his own spot in the Statistics of how many times you're killed by him and some people formed raids of 40 level 1's just for the heck of it and to see if they can kill Hogger. When a new player picks up the quest to kill this guy, chances are likely that they have no idea what his elite status meant and thought that they could kill him alone and unless they are a druid, priest or paladin, they might be screwed. Eventually a joke arose about Hogger sometime during or after the Burning Crusade expansion where there was a Heroic Hogger difficulty. Heroic Hogger never existed in-game. However during Blizzcon 2009, during a live raid by the guild Premonition, they fought a level 80 Heroic Hogger and they were annihilated. Heroic Hogger is known for being the only boss in WoW to have wiped out an entire 25 man raid in 10 seconds or less. Allegedly Heroic Hogger is the most powerful creature in WoW and has a wide array of absurdly powerful attacks, including Hogger putting on the Helmet of Domination, becoming the Lich King and wielding one of the coolest swords in the Warcraft universe, Frostmourne. He has an enrage timer of 10 seconds so if you can't take down 100,000,000,000 hit points you and your many friends would be screwed. If by some miracle that you do take him down to 10% of health, he will use an attack that murders the entire population of the server. Although Heroic Hogger was just a joke, just imagine what it would be like if there really was such a thing. Despite no one has ever actually defeated Heroic Hogger, upon his death he takes everyone with him, killing every player in the server. Hogger may be the smallest, seemingly unthreatening boss in World of Warcraft, but he is the most vile, unholy and undefeatable menace of all time.
