=Notable Warbosses= ===Khork=== {{Main|Khork, the Megaboss of Ullanor}} One of the most successful and powerful beasts to ever threaten the Imperium, this towering green monstrosity is the stuff of Ork legend. Khork first grew to prominence during M30, quickly overtaking all in his path in the attempt to create a lasting and oddly coordinated empire of green. His WAAAGH! was one of the most troubling and difficult to finally stop, and it was only through a massive and lengthy Imperial campaign that it was eventually stopped. Though he was defeated, Khork inspired numerous warbosses to try and out do him, and his name will not be forgotten so long as there exists an Orkoid. ===Mongo Mork=== {{Main|Mongo Mork}} The Pulmni Ork known as Mongo Mork was among the most infamously charismatic of his species, his tenacious heirs remained much more cohesive than other decapitated warbands largely due to the peculiar cult of personality which surrounded him. He has been described with many affectations, even called a prophet of the WAAAGH by his most fervent followers, and held the strategically positioned Pulmn system for nearly five centuries against untold numbers of threats before finally being killed by [[Life Bringers|Brothers of Death]] commander Hashimoto the Red at the close of [[the Pulmni War]]. Nevertheless, his legacy led to the naming of the Mongoid Sector and the [[the Cleansing of the Mongoid Sector|infamous wars]] fought there by his successors, and there are still many freebooter fleets and Ork warbands which claim a link to him. ===WAAAGH! Sarkus=== The Ork Warboss known as Sarkus had small beginnings, starting out as a Feral Ork sometime in M27. By about 436.M29, however, he had become the effective ruler of the small Age of Strife civilization that inhabited his planet, the primitive local humans cowering in fear before the Orks and their newest technological acquisitions. It is possible that at least some of this knowledge was "looted" from an earlier, unsuccessful human attempt to reunite the scattered civilizations of the galaxy, and it is clear that whatever the case, the area now known as Segmentum Tempestus was due for a reckoning. Some time after Sarkus first campaigned off-world, an as-yet unidentified [[Craftworld Eldar (Hektor Heresy)|Eldar Craftworld]] passed through the area, only to come into conflict with the swelling power of Sarkus' WAAAGH. Sarkus had laid utter waste to fifty worlds and conquered some two hundred and fourty more, including two human and some five minor Xenos civilizations. Some thirty of these worlds had been set aside for the express purpose of producing untold numbers of Squiggoths, and pieces of "looted" war materiel included a number of sonic and pressure-based weapons, likely made by the minor xenos trampled beneath the Orkish heel. The Eldar, however, knew one thing Sarkus did not - that the Emperor's Great Crusade would arrive in but a few centuries. The path was long, and the method of guidance tiring, but the results were clear - on the dead world of Meteon, a WAAAGH that utterly dwarfed the [[Scale Bearers]] Legion had just finished picking through a number of ancient Xenos ruins when they noted Imperial craft in the skies above. [[Tiran Osoros]] had arrived, and the stage was set for a rivalry the likes of which neither had known before. ===WAAAGH! Rok'Ed=== {{Main|WAAAGH! Rok'Ed}} WAAAGH Rok'Ed was a shambolic armada of greenskins that rampaged through the Segmentum Pacificus towards the close of the first century of the Great Crusade. ===Rennug the Fat=== Rennug was a runty git, who was almost too unorky for comfort. His Ork Clan lived on an unimportant world, fighting other Clans in an endless bid for supremacy. Each group believed themselves the Orkiest, and the strongest. But no clear victor ever came to power over the planet, to lead all the Orks in a WAAAAAGH! Rennug grew in this environment, where the fighting had no end and no true glory was being had by any Ork. The same scraps day in and day out, the same loot being passed over twice a week. Now, Rennug did love a good scrap, but he enjoyed eating even more. Why waste time, in his mind, fighting pointless fights when you can just enjoy the time you have? His fellow boyz would find him after battles skipping over the dead, not looking for dakka, choppa, or any flash, but meat. The best meats he could find. Eventually, the other boyz got sick of Rennug, who managed up till that point to surprise everyone by living for so long. A group of Slugga Boyz surrounded him, and started hacking at him with their choppas. What wasn't expected was the thick layer of fat that had developed around Rennug's orkoid flesh. The axes didn't cut in very far, and Rennug showed for the first time his soon to be legendary bouts of rage. Losing all sense, he went into a fury ripping apart ten Orks his own size alone. What made it clear to everyone never to mess with Rennug again though, was when he ate all ten of those boyz right after. The whole Clan gave him a wide berth after that incident, but some started giving him the good squigs to eat so he wouldn't eat them. It dawned on ole Rennug that if he kept this up, there could be plenty of nice meat to eat. He wrestled control of the Clan with some boys following him, and then set about conquering all over the place. The nameless planet fell soon after, and it wasn't long till Rennug decided to leave. His mind was a tad sharper than most Orks, forming a plan on how to get famous quick. The Skythykos Cluster was nearby, his Orks spreading out all across it. He told his Orks to go on "tray'nin' sprees", fighting each other in bouts of scraps to build up their strength. What wasn't realized however, was that this sent spores everywhere. Within a few years, a whole horde of Orks was being born. Rennug realized what was happening instantly. Rennug wasn't so craven anymore, and had grown big. Tall and wide. Larger than any warboss say for the infamous Khork, Rennug rallied his massive calling of young bloods to attack human space. He wanted a fight with the Imperium, this big gang of humans led by the Shiny Humie Warboss. His assault would fail horribly, and he'd be burned by the [[Sons of Fire]] for his trouble in the [[Flenching of Skythykos]].
