Gruumsh

God of slaughter, destruction, fury, and bloodshed.

Gruumsh is the god of slaughter, destruction, fury, and bloodshed. According to myth, when Bane saw that his brother Moradin and Melora produced the mighty Kord, he felt confident that any child he sired with Melora would surpass Kord in grandeur. Bane seduced Melora, who gave birth to Gruumsh. To the frustration of Bane, however, Gruumsh inherited the wild, untamed savagery of his mother. Bane rejected Gruumsh, but his son is said to follow in his wake everywhere Bane goes. He has a rivalry with his half-brother Kord.
