History/Relationships: He is a brutally strong deity, and brutally stupid deity, depicted as a vastly muscular orc with filthy skin, dull eyes, over-sized tusks, studded leather armor, and heavy gauntlets. He is said to challenge and battle all manners of archetypal beasts and roam the planes tearing the landscape asunder. Bahgtru's clergy are often the strongest members of the tribe who serves as bodyguard for the chieftain. His domains are Chaos, Evil, and Strength, and the only weapons he favors are gauntlets. He scorns heavy armor. Although loyal to Gruumsh, his first loyalty is to Luthic. Bahgtru has been described as "awesomely stupid." Bahgtru's symbol derives from a battle when he slew a huge multi-legged reptile from another world by breaking all of its legs. Bhagtru scorns all magic, armor, and weapons, and values physical strength alone.

Dogma: Loyalty to your leader is all that is required of you

Avatar/Manifestations: Depicted as a muscular orc with filthy skin, dull eyes, over-sized tusks, studded leather armor, and heavy gauntlets. Bahgtru sends his avatar into the Prime Material plane only at the urging of other orcish gods (usually Gruumsh or Luthic); he is too stupid to do this of his own accord. If he sends an omen, it is in the form of a splitting headache ("Bahgtru's pat" is the term used for this).

The Church of Bahgtru: Bahgtru's priesthood must strive to dominate their clans and put any others in the shade (save for that of Gruumsh). They must at all times undergo strenuous physical regimes of training, and train young orcs in the same way. They encourage clan rivalries, always attempting to convert other clans to Bahgtru's cult.
