Gurp Gorp, son of Gurp, son of Gorp, is a hobgoblin serving king Thorne of Mardur, and training under Tuk-Tuk.
Gurp Gorp was a hobgoblin, in charge of a rather large goblin tribe. During a war between the goblin tribes, he was captured and sold to some slavers. The slavers were going to use the slaves as sacrifices, but found some of the goblins "impure," and so left them behind, several miles into the journey. When a troll was heard crashing around nearby, some idiot decided to mock it as it was stumbling by, and it went into a rage, smashing several of the tied-up goblins. In the chaos, Gurp Gorp fled as fast as he could, and ran into some bandits, who gladly took the strong creature into their ranks.
He worked with the bandits for a while, eventually encountering a goblin by the name of Tuk-Tuk, wearing only a loincloth, who also joined the band of brigands. Being the only two goblinkind in the group, the two became good friends. As they fought alongside each other, they killed many and were rich with shinies for some time. One day, they came across a cave. Gurp Gorp was afraid to enter, but Tuk Tuk convinced him, and they went in, together. Gurp Gorp was the only one to come back out, though he had many stories of heroism from Tuk-Tuk... and his loincloth, which he uses as a sort of icon to be close to the great Tuk-Tuk, who he praises as one of the Great Goblin Master of old reborn.
The brigands were soon hunted down by Mardur, and slain without mercy. The hobgoblin obviously didn't belong with them, so the King saw fit to find a use for him. Upon joining Mardur, the King listened to Gurp Gorp praise Tuk-Tuk through the night and began to laugh hysterically. "Gurp Gorp don't know why you laugh, orc-man thing." "I know your Tuk-Tuk. He has joined my army and serves under my name, for the time being." When Gurp Gorp got to the capital, he was in awe; no goblin had ever made anything so grand. And upon the walls sat a familiar person, one of only 3ft 5 and wearing more now than just a loincloth. Tuk-Tuk sat amongst his goblin slaves attending him as Gurp Gorp approached. Then Tuk-Tuk looked up at Gurp Gorp, and the face of joy came to him as he leaped from his goblin chair to yell Gurp Gorps name in his high voice. And they lived happily, ever after.
