Gruumsh

Gruumsh is the God of Destruction. He was once an elder evil who slaughtered gods and accended to an Elder God.   Gruumsh normally appears as a hulking, 10 feet (3 meters) tall orc covered in battle scars and clad in a black, gleaming suit of plate mail armor. His tough, gray hide is corded with muscle, and on his one-eyed face is a bear-like snout. In some incarnations he has only a right eye and an empty left eye socket, while in others he simply has one large, cycloptic eye that stares unwinking in the center of his forehead.   Violent and bloodthirsty, Gruumsh is a god that exulted in battle and reveled in warfare. He is a savage deity with the rage of a berserker whose desire to wreak havoc can only be satisfied through destruction and carnage. He destroys everything in his path, the land, the sea, the weave and even the laws of the realm.   He loves destruction for its own sake, and he needed no greater reason to create gore than to hear the pleasing sound of viscera flopping wetly to the ground. Gruumsh is also driven and aggressive, constantly pushing his people to create and engage in the pain, conflict, and strife that he relished.   He leads the Gods of Fury, which include Umberlee the Goddess of the Sea, Auril the Goddess of Winter, and Malar the God of the Hunt.
