Grummsh

Gruumsh, The Ruiner, is the patron god of the orc race. He was named He Who Never Sleeps for he was said to never tire, and symbolized with an ever-open eye to represent the orc belief that he watched over them all, judging the worth of each and every one of their kind. Gruumsh created the orcs. Long ago he swore that orcs would rule the world, and since then had driven his people to wage endless holy war in the name of his divine wrath. he has also collected hordes of barbaric marauders across Kalarda to destroy, pillage, and slaughter in his name.   The Ruiner's primitive, usually clay, representations can be found in his worshipers' communities. They depict him as a hulking behemoth of an orc with his missing eye, lacking a pair since the Divine Divide has shifted and now central to the face, bearing close resemblance to a cyclops. Some zealous hill giants ritualistically tear out one eye in worship to Gruumsh others simply wear an eyepatch.
