	Elven lore shows that Gruumsh lost his eye in a battle against [[Corellon Larethian]], which the orcs hold against [[elves]] to this very day. In the alternative, Orc clerics claim that is all just propaganda and that Corellon ''(or [[Sehanine]])'' deceived him with magic and "stole" his eye because he couldn't take Gruumsh on in a fair fight; or that Gruumsh ''always'' had one eye and that the story is simply a fabrication. Most depictions of him have a single eye in the center of his face like a cyclops and the 2e origin story actually concurs that the myths are illogical, considering Gruumsh was always called "One-Eye" before the conflict even began.

	Gruumsh can be compared to a saturday morning cartoon villain, in that he can never win. All his evil schemes, boundless hate, and his massive raging spear (no, his actual spear you pervert) seem to add up to nothing in the face of his inept followers, namely the Orcs, [[Ogre]]s, Ogrillions, and ~~Orogs~~ (his servant's names are even all alliterations, another clue to his Cartoon-Villainy). Although in recent years Gruumsh has been forced to adapt and become a more cunning villain.		Gruumsh can be compared to a saturday morning cartoon villain, in that he can never win.

	Gruumsh has always been the head of the Orc pantheon, though supposedly in pre-history, someone attempted to depose him and was so utterly destroyed that they remain unknown; but it did cause Gruumsh to maintain an iron fisted lordship over the other deities and he constantly watches for weakness and betrayal.

	Much of Gruumsh's history is as the antagonist in the conflict with [[Corellon Larethian]], therefore most details of the story come from Elven sources and that their enmity stems from the division of portfolios during the dawn of time with Gruumsh missing out on all of the favourable traits and territories. Various different stories of their battles giving different accounts of how and where Gruumsh "lost" his eye, though most agree that there were many battles between the two deities, so the exact details from one even may be conflated with another.

	Early stories leave Gruumsh unconnected with the story of [[Lolth]] and the exile of the [[Drow]], though later interpretations from both the [[Forgotten Realms]] and ''"Core"'' D&D tend to agree that Gruumsh played some part of it:		Early stories leave Gruumsh unconnected with the story of [[Lolth]] and the exile of the [[Drow]], though later interpretations from both the [[Forgotten Realms]] and ''"Core"'' D&D tend to agree that Gruumsh played some part of it:
