The leader of the Orc-band from Mount Gram that attacked the Shire in the Battle of Greenfields, 2747 Third Age.

[Bullroarer] was so huge (for a hobbit) that he could ride a horse. He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram in the Battle of the Green Fields, and knocked their king Golfimbul's head clean off with a wooden club. It sailed a hundred yards through the air and went down a rabbit hole, and in this way the battle was won and the game of Golf invented at the same moment.The Hobbit, Ch 1, An Unexpected Party
