Ghazghkull Thraka

Lore & Background

His influence has drawn the attention of every major power in the galaxy, from the Adeptus Mechanicus to the Chaos Gods themselves. While he often clashes with the Imperium of Man, viewing their technology as shiny toys to be smashed or stolen, his ultimate goal is simply to find more enemies to fight. He has united disparate Ork tribes that would otherwise be at war with each other, creating a singular, unstoppable force of nature that threatens the stability of the entire sector.
