Info on the Red Gobbo can be found here: Gretchin - Notable Gretchin

Here's a basic rundown: The Red Gobbo is the leader of the Rebel Grots on Gorkamorka and is the head of the Gretchin Revolutionary Committee (known also as the Da Kommittee or the GRC). The Meks recently introduced the tag system on Gorkamorka, whereby you can only get on board the Space Hulk (once construction is completed) when the big WAAAGH! starts, if you have a tag. Unfortunately Grots don't get tags. Due to this unfair treatment, the GRC was formed, and soon a full-scale revolution was begun amongst the Grots in Mektown. The Red Gobbo is the figurehead for the whole revolutionary movement. Although he concerns himself with the revolution as a whole, it is not uncommon for him to get out and do a bit of dirty work himself. While the actual position of the Red Gobbo may change hands, part of the seat of power is the trusty kustom Slugga and club-like sceptre of authority which all Red Gobbos have carried since the GRC was founded. These were supposedly wrested from the bloodied hands of the Ork oppressors during the Strike Day Massaker and have been treasured artefacts ever since. He is known to wear a red overcoat to show his support for the revolution.
