Thrugg Bullneck
Big Boss Thrugg Bullneck is a Warboss[1a] of the Ork Empire of Charadon, who took part in the Invasion of Rynn's World as part of Luggub's Drop Legion[2][3] on the orders of Snagrod.[1b]
History
In the early part of the invasion Bullneck attacked a jadeberry farm, where he and his subordinate Hruk discovered a cache of shiny jewels. To protect the loot from any other would-be thieves, Bullneck and Hruk buried the jewels on the farm with the intention of returning to retrieve them later. Each mistrustful of the other, the two would later return to the farm with a small force of Boyz to obtain the loot, only to discover that a small group of surviving Crimson Fists had taken refuge there. Led by Pedro Kantor, the Space Marines had been on their way to New Rynn City when the Orks arrived back at the farm. The two forces then clashed, with Bullneck intent on stopping the Crimson Fists from taking his loot.[1b][2]
Bullneck's fate following the battle at the farm is unknown, although a Warboss of the Bad Moon Clan going by the same name would later come into conflict with Abaddon during the early stages of one of the Warmaster's Black Crusades.[4]
