The term Pit Lords is generally applied to a race of barbaric demons in the Blizzard Entertainment video game series Warcraft. They serve as commanders and generals for the armies of the Burning Legion. They are also the "masters" of the Legion's Felhounds and they can summon Doom Guards.
History
The Pit Lords were enslaved by the fallen titan, Sargeras, when he created the dreaded Burning Legion. Among their ranks, Mannoroth - commonly known as the Destructor - became general over the hordes of crazed demons that resided within the Twisting Nether. Mannoroth, counciled by the demon-lord Archimonde, enslaved the Orcs of Draenor with the use of his own blood, and corrupting them to serve according to his will. The Orcs, however, failed to destroy the world of Azeroth as planned, and when the Legion returned many years later, Mannoroth was slain by his own orcish apprentice, Grom Hellscream, and the blood pact that had corrupted the Orcs for so long was finally lifted.
The Pit Lord Azgalor took over as demonic general, but when the legion failed in their second attempt to destroy the world of Azeroth as well, Azgalor returned to the depths of the Twisting Nether in shame. Illidan Stormrage, with the help of the Naga and Blood Elves, also fought the Pit Lord Magtheridon on Draenor and claimed the Outland as his own.
Appearance
Pit Lords appear as massive centaur-like juggernauts. They have six limbs: two arms and four elephant-like legs. They also have wings, but they're unable to fly because of their huge body. They have hairless, slimy skin, that can be green or purple. They have a small head with big tusks and hardly any neck, and an enormous body with a large belly.
They wield massive double edged blades and have elaborate chest and shoulder armor. At times, a pit lord can have a "crown" of green flames typical of the legion. This was seen on Mannoroth during the cinematic at the end of the Orc campaign in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.
Pit lords also have the feared ability to summon demons at the cost of a life, whether it be of an ally or an enemy. Their terrifying howls can send even the most couragous warriors into despair.
In the expansion Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, they appear as Neutral Tavern heroes. Their abilities are Howl of Terror, Rain of fire, Cleaving attack, and Doom.

Ian Jordan, born December 27th, 1989 in Naples, Italy, is an American politician from Birmingham, Alabama. President of A local Virginia Beach, Virginia chapter of the Democratic Party, Ian is known by many to be Big Daddy. Being taller then 91% of the population, standing an incredible 6'5, Ian has always been special.
Political History
In Spring 2007, Ian challenged an incumbent council member in a heated three way race. Largely agreed to have given the most electrifying speech at the election,he was nearly disqualified for alleged negative campaigning. Ian lost the election amid murky unreleased results; although widely believed and later proven he achieved electoral success.
Instead of contesting the results, Ian re-founded the local Democratic chapter and assumed the role of Interim President.
Upcoming Races
President Jordan recently lost out to friend E. Davis in a nominating contest, although Davis would not be in the position due to Ian's inadvertent help.
In Mid-November 2007 Jordan will face legitimate election to his post, though expected to sail victory due to no competition. Endorsing his longtime ally F. Blanchard for Vice-President, the two are expected to remain group leaders for the remainder of their tenure.
On November 19th, Jordan's local Democratic chapter will find out if they prevailed against larger and better funded groups in a Food Drive competition.
