Bad Moons Gretchin: The Flashiest of Grots
Bad Moons Gretchin, or Grots, are the smaller, sneaky underlings of the wealthy Bad Moons Ork clan. As with all Gretchin, they are treated as an underclass, expected to serve their larger Ork masters without question. However, the wealth of the Bad Moons occasionally trickles down to these Grots, giving them slightly better equipment or garish trinkets. Dressed in flashy paint and crude gold adornments, they mimic their masters’ style while remaining firmly at the bottom of the social ladder.
Tools of War and Cannon Fodder
On the battlefield, Bad Moons Gretchin serve as expendable support units for the larger Ork forces. They scurry around as ammo carriers, shield-bearers, or operators of smaller gun emplacements, often risking life and limb to keep the war machine running. Thanks to their clan’s wealth, they sometimes have better gear than Gretchin from other clans, but their equipment is still prone to malfunction. Their survival hinges on quick reflexes, cunning, and staying out of their Ork masters’ wrathful reach.
Survival and Scheming
Despite their lowly status, Bad Moons Gretchin are masters of survival and deception. They hoard teeth (Ork currency), pilfer gear, and build secret hideouts within the clan’s camps to improve their situation. Their loyalty is born out of necessity rather than genuine allegiance, as they navigate their precarious existence under the watchful eyes of their Ork overlords. Some even dream of escaping their station, though such ambitions are rarely realized.
The Flashy Underclass
Bad Moons Gretchin represent an overlooked but fascinating aspect of Ork society. Their lives are shaped by the wealth and extravagance of their clan, which influences even the smallest and most downtrodden members. While their role remains menial and dangerous, these cunning Grots add depth to the Ork hierarchy, showing that even the underclass can’t resist the allure of shiny displays of power.
