'''{{PAGENAME}}''' (also called '''Grukk the Unstoppable''', '''Grukk Face-Eater''', '''Grukk the Zogging Maniac'''{{Fn|2a}} and '''Scourge of The Sanctus Reach'''{{Fn|8}}) is an infamous [[Goff]] [[Ork]] [[Warboss]] who led the [[Red Waaagh!]] of 998.[[M41]].{{Fn|1a}}
At the [[Slaughter of Black Gulch]], Grukk famously tore open a malfunctioning [[Drop Pod]] to get at the [[Space Marine]]s inside. He then cut all ten of the Adeptus Astartes into pieces, one by one, in a series of increasingly violent kills. It was such an ignoble fate that the commanders of the battle company authorised a revenge strike upon Grukk himself. Despite inflicting severe damage, the Space Marines were unable to complete their mission. Grukk is still alive today, albeit covered in a grotesque patchwork of thick, knotted scars. The same cannot be said of the entire [[Obsidian Glaives]] Chapter.{{Fn|1b}}

Though his strength is legendary, it is Grukk’s utter certainty that he cannot lose that makes him so dangerous. He makes a habit of leading every charge, no matter the odds, and publicly butchers any Ork stupid enough to question his rule. Grukk is always encrusted with the clotted blood of those he has killed. He never wipes it off, either, considering such acts as cleaning or washing to be ‘runt’s work’. His supporters claim that he has never lost a fight, not even once. It is this bloody reputation – and Grukk’s habit of painting his ships with gore – that has led to his crusade of violence being known to his followers as the Red Waaagh!{{Fn|1b}}
