__NOTOC__
[[Yog (Birth of a Barbarian)]] is a campaign exclusive hero and is not playable in custom made maps. However, his portrait is available in map editor and can be chosen if a custom hero is created on the map.


== Story ==
In the [[Shadow of Death]] campaign "[[Birth of a Barbarian]]", Yog is presented as a [[Wizard]]. However, his starting primary skills (Attack 2, Defense 2, Spell Power 1, Knowledge 1) correspond instead to those of a [[Knight]]. He has starting secondary skills of Basic [[Tactics]] and Basic [[Offense]]. His specialty, interestingly, is [[Chain Lightning]] (same as [[Solmyr]]), but he cannot ever acquire a [[spellbook]] (entering a [[Mage Guild]] while he is a visiting Hero results in a messagebox telling "Yog has given up magic in all its forms. His knowledge of battle and tactics will have to be enough to get him through the rest of his life."), therefore he cannot make use of that specialty.
The son of a genie enchantress and a barbarian chieftain, Yog has been studying magic to please his mother. While there he fell in love with [[Vidomina]], before she became corrupted and turned to necromancy. He longs for battle, however, so when Duke [[Boragus]] invites him to join the [[Krewlod]] army, he jumps at the opportunity. He escapes [[Bracada]], pursued by [[Aine]]. When he crosses the border into [[Krewlod]], he is immediately attacked by barbarian forces. When he reaches [[Ulgak]] and meets with Boragus, he finds out this was part of a test to see if he was worthy of joining the barbarians. The other test is to disassemble and disperse the [[Angelic Alliance]]. Once Yog completes this task, he is fully welcomed into the [[Krewlod]] army.


In the main game and other campaigns, he uses the profile {{Hn|Yog|0=}}.

== Trivia ==
Although [[Yog (Birth of a Barbarian)]] is presented as a [[Wizard]], his starting [[primary skill]]s correspond instead to those of a [[Knight]].
== Specialty ==
His specialty, interestingly, is [[Chain Lightning]] (same as [[Solmyr]]), but he cannot ever acquire a [[spell book]]: entering a [[Mage Guild]] while he is a visiting Hero results in a message box telling the player that "Yog has given up magic in all of its forms. His knowledge of battle and tactics will have to be enough to get him through the rest of his life." Thus, he cannot make use of his specialty.
