	Gorbad is a ~~terror incarnate. A Beast on two legs. His raids and atrocities into the realms of Rohan are almost legend.

Gorbad is a massive Uruk-hai and a lieutenant of the Orc forces occupying Darkhold, a fortress in the southern Misty Mountains. His sudden raids against the settlements of Rohan have made him infamous throughout the Mark.
	[[~~file~~:Gorbad2.jpg\|center\|thumb\|The ~~Sign~~ of Gorbad ~~The~~ Slaughterer]]
			Gorbad favors nighttime attacks that overwhelm villages before their defenders can gather. His warband kills or captures entire communities and leaves a grisly banner in the village square bearing Gorbad’s mark. These displays earned him the name “the Slaughterer.”

			One such raid killed Theor and Dagian, the father and betrothed of [[Lord of the Rings/Characters/Ulfrik\|Ulfrik]]. For almost a decade, Gorbad and Ulfrik have answered each other’s attacks with unmistakable signs, turning their conflict into a bitter personal hunt. Gorbad’s band has now joined another Orc party entering the Mark, drawing Ulfrik and [[Lord of the Rings/Characters/Darethor Thornfall\|Darethor Thornfall]] into an alliance against him.
