Gruumsh is the one-eyed god of the orcs. He lost his other eye in a battle against Corellon Larethian (despite most deptictions of him being of an orc with a single eye in the center of his face like a cyclops), which the orcs hold against elves to this very day.
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 seem to add up to nothing in the face of his inept followers, namely the Orcs, Ogres, Ogrillions, and Orogs (his servant's names are even all alliterations, another clue to his Cartoon-Villainy).

This is Gruumsh literally creating a home for the orcish people. Any Chaotic Evil god that doesn't create housing developments by blasting apart large portions of the landscape has nothing on The One-Eyed God.
