Gruumsh

God of Brutality

Gruumsh was created from a rare burst of fury from Shar, with some of her essence meeting forces of pure destructive chaos. But this also pulled some of this destructive nature away from the goddess who has since abandoned the idea of destroying the world and instead seeks to control it.
The god of brutality himself relished in the wars and slaughter mortals inflicted on each other. But he wasn't content with the lack of respect these traits were given. Instead, most cultures considered them weaknesses or something to abhor. wanting a race that could embrace brutality as honour, Gruumsh created the orcs. As long as they are strong and fierce, the orcs continue to have his blessing and while he represents all forms of brutality, he clearly favours his own people.
