Gloomspite Gitz

""Da Bad Moon spoke to me, once. All dese years, through all dese realms, I've followed it in da skies and 'ave heard all da stories about 'ow it came to be..."

– Skragrott the Loonking

The Gloomspite Gitz are a loose coalition of Moonclan Grots, Spiderfang Grots, Troggoths and more. They are united in the worship of the Bad Moon, which they see as an aspect of Gorkamorka.

The Bad Moon

The Bad Moon itself is a supernatural moon (even moreso than Morrsleib from Fantasy) that travels between realms to no discernible pattern. A thing of horror and mystery, those who seek to divine its path are driven mad by the celestial object. It also sends ill portents across the realms wherever it passes. It can even speak, though the only person it has done so to is Skragrott.

Whatever the case, the Bad Moon fills the Gloomspite Gits with lunacy, which they refer to as “Gloomspite”, that fills them with fervor and strength, but also takes a toll on their sanity. When the Bad Moon waxes, wars rage.

Groups

Skragrott the Loonking, leader of the Gloomspite Gitz, has a plan. He abducts every seer and prophet he can find that's had contact with the Bad Moon. Then he infects them with a fungal strain that turns them into half-human, half-mushroom hybrids. The Loonking keeps these captives in his creatively named "fungal asylum". He hopes they will foretell where the Bad Moon will rise, with mixed results so far. His ultimate goal is to cover all the Mortal Realms in the Clammy-Dank and he has already achieved this in one part of Chamon, which could bring them in conflict with the forces of Chaos since the realm is currently dominated by the followers of Tzeentch.

Spiderfang Grots also worship the Bad Moon, seeing it as an egg-sac of their Spider-God.
