==The Legend== Deep in the mountain ranges of the [[Dwarfs|<strike>Stunties</strike> Dwarfs]] a Hold called Black Crag was destroyed by greenskins, [[Dwarf Fortress|like just about any other Dwarf Hold in Warhammer]]. Since then the tribes have squabbled over it until the Red Fang tribe wound up in control, under the chieftain named Gorfang Rotgut who lead the Red Fangs into absorbing the other tribes. Rotgut was an experienced warrior who specializes in <strike>Stunties</strike> Dwarfs and fought many battles against them beforehand, having lost an eye which was replaced by a scrap of iron like an eyepatch. Gorfang has gotten a fairly massive chip on his shoulders towards the race, about the size of one in fact. In a battle against one of the surviving nearby Karaks, Karak Azul (gee, I wonder what color you should paint them), Gorfang kidnapped the family of the Thane Kazador. The son was shaved (so basically castrated times ten), tattooed with Gorfang's name (or at least the closest thing Orcs can recognize to a written name), and crucified on the throne. He escaped back to his father, but the experience broke his mind somewhat. The rest of the family remained as Gorfang's living trophies. Where does Gorfang become important in the grander Warhammer setting? He made a deal with [[Skarsnik]], his next door neighbor over in the [[Karak Eight-Peaks]]. Through Gorfang and his huge clan of diverse Orcs, Skarsnik gained access to all types of Orcs and through Skarsnik, Gorfang (and by extension basically any other Orc Warboss) gained [[Night Goblins]] and everything they possess (so everything that's best in the army other than your generic redshirt Orcs and a [[Black Orc]] to slap them around). Oh yeah, he also defended Black Crag against [[Clan Mors]] and a throng of Slayers from Karak Azul, not to mention he [[Awesome|humiliated and beat the shit out of Queek Head-Taker in combat]] in a very one-sided duel. Other than that, [[Tolkien|he just sits on his ass on the throne of the thane under the black mountain]] getting drunk and fat. His weapons had fairly basic lore. * The Red Fang was either named after the tribe or the tribe is named after the weapon, either way it is the symbol of leadership for rulers of Black Crag. * Evil Sun Armor is a set of armor including a shield bearing the old Warhammer symbol of evil (originally Chaos and Orcs as well as [[Citadel Miniatures]], later just Orcs until they dropped it in favor of a generic symbol vaguely looking like an Orc face) which is an angry looking sun.
