	Gorum was not always around like most of these other pansy gods, he did not come into being until far later in [[Golarion]]'s history when the [[orc]]s, driven out from the [[Underdark\|Darklands]] by the [[dwarves]], first began to come into direct mass and bloody conflict with [[human]]s. Legends state that Gorum arose from a suit of iron armor left on a desolate battlefield after the fighting had ended, willed into being by conflict itself, and should conflict ever cease he would rust away into nothingness. Needless to say he doesn't have much to worry about in the protracted future.

	As noted above, he has some similarities to Khorne, which is fitting given that they were both inspired by the same god, Crom. Both love nothing better than a good fight, give their favor to strong warriors (the more armored the better), and frown on ranged weapons and especially magic. But where Khorne is usually Chaotic Evil incarnate ("it matters not from where the blood flows, only that it flows"), Gorum, while not a paragon of virtue and usually said to care nothing for morality, does have his standards; he hates assassins and pointless degradation (hence his hostility to Norgorber and Urgathoa), and doesn't approve of senseless slaughter of the weak and defenseless. He and Nethys are rivals, but there's some mutual respect as well, unlike with Khorne and Tzeentch. For another difference, where Khorne cares little if his followers throw their lives away for him in bulk, Gorum prefers warriors to live to fight another day so they can keep growing stronger. The Pathfinder being who better resembles Khorne in characterization is Szuriel, the Horseman of War.

	His home base is in Elysium, despite being Chaotic Neutral rather than Chaotic Good. The implication is that it's a reward for services rendered. Again, this guy is basically a nicer/more nuanced Khorne.		His home base is in Elysium, despite being his Chaotic Neutral rather than Chaotic Good.

			Ever wonder what [[Khorne]] would be like if he had some baseline standards and ethics to balance out his love of war, had genuine honor instead of just posturing, and was [[Nethys\|more of a rival to Tzeentch]] than having a mutual hatred with him?

			Well, that's this guy. Plus, he's more practical when it comes to ranged weapons (though still prefers melee).
