Zhugan Ghoshbeg

Ul Orgad Goth (The Pale King)

The Pale King of the Orcs of Rel Grugkun is a figure of terrifying legend. Stories of his savage nature are told to young Dwarves as a warning of the dangers of the surface world.
Zhugan only appeared some twenty or so years ago, with a strange orcish witch, Sharog the Dark, at his side. His high intelligence and ruthless character allowed him to unite the dispirate orcish tribes under one banner, that of the Ghoshbeg Rel.
From atop the Throne of Bones he sends out raids to harry the civilised folk of the Western Commonlands, and he seems to have a particular fascination with the Rel Crater, which has lead to large skirmishes with the Dwarves that mine it for Celestial Steel.

Appearance and Mannerisms

Zhugan is a terrifying figure to behold. He is tall for an orc, and incredibly powerfully build. His skin is a very pale and sickly white, and blue and purple veins can be seen beneath the surface of scars that cover his body. His eyes are a piercing grey, and they contain an unusual intelligence.
Zhugan wears the Bone Crown of Rel, which has been fashioned from the jaws of some huge beast, and sits on his broad shoulders rather than atop his head. His armour is decorated with the scalps of slain foes, both orcish and otherwise. He has little time for fools.

Notable Achievements

With the aid of the mysterious orcish witch Sharog, Zhugan did what no orc had done for centuries. He united the tribes and became their leader, through a mixture of terror and an unusually intelligent and strategic mind.
