Zulgha the Beautiful

Zulgha the Beautiful was the orcish leader chosen by Gruumsh to lead the most recent orcish invasion of Rakvalinor, two hundred years before the Shattering.
In her early life Zulgha was mocked and insulted as "the Beautiful" for her "unfeminine" appearance; she responded by fighting and—eventually—defeating every orcish man who had insulted her. Zulgha began to gather a reputation and followers, and "the Beautiful" changed from a title of mockery to one of fear, and finally one of respect. It was then that she caught the eye of Gruumsh, who was seeking a champion to humiliate the elves of Rakvalinor.
Although Zulgha failed to permanently conquer Rakvalinor, her hordes were able to push far inland and pillaged to their hearts' content. Zulgha herself reveled in destroying the beautiful elven cities and art, and was at the front of many charges.
