Bull Gorg

A renowned Pit Fighter in Necromunda's underhive, who had had both of his arms removed and replaced with Chainswords, Bull Gorg would lead the largest slave revolt the Hive had ever seen.[1]

History

He captured the settlement of Dead End Pass with an army of freed slaves, and immediately outlawed slavery in the settlement. He imposed this law on all slave trains that came through, freeing all of their prisoners as well as forcing any who passed that way to pay a toll.[1]

However, the powerful Guilds that ran these slave trains would not allow such losses to continue unchecked for long. An army of bounty hunters and outlaws in the pay of the Guilders descended on Dead End Pass. The slaves were ultimately betrayed by a traitor from within the settlement itself, who opened the gates, and allowed the Guilders' mercenaries inside. The streets ran red with blood as the Guilds' army of criminals and guns for hire sacked the settlement, slaughtering all without compunction.[1]

Bull Gorg was captured alive, then executed as an ordinary criminal. Afterwards, his head was placed on a stake, and paraded about the underhive by the Guilders to remind all the price of crossing them, and who truly had the power.[1]

Conspiracy

There are rumours circulating into the present day that the Guilds faked Gorg's execution. People whisper that he escaped Dead End Pass before the gates were open and stalks the depths of the Hive, waiting for the day when he will return to that ill-fated settlement with another slave army to challenge the Guilders once more.[1]

Naturally these rumours are spoken quietly. Many who have spoken too loudly of Gorg's return have simply disappeared or suffered mysterious fatal accidents.[1]
