Groshpit was an Ork Warboss whose forces invaded the Imperium World Bastion V and slaughtered its population. Bastion V's destruction would earn Groshpit the nickname The Flayer from his Orks for the way he skinned alive any captured Humans he got his hands on. He later joined the Waaagh! of Warlord Garzulk the Faceless and took part in Pyrus Reach Conflict, where he clashed with the Eldar forces of the Ulthwé Farseer Karus Bethaneal[1a]. As his battle with the Farseer wore on, Groshpit decided to use an enormous cannon his Mekboyz had created to completely destroy the Eldar and finally end the battle. However, when he had the cannon activated, it instantly exploded and killed Groshpit and the Orks that were near it. In the aftermath of the explosion, the surviving Orks were left leaderless and were defeated by Karus' forces.[1b]
