But now, the Horde has many different races in it, and of course there has never been so stupid a rule as "only an orc can be the Warchief". When a non orc is made Warchief, and it will be a non orc since there is no orc character in the storyline that is fit for the job, you can be sure that the orcs will elect a "High Chieftain" to represent their clans.
