| Discovery Notes | Found in the backyard of our family home. The phages were taken from soil directly under a compost pile that runs adjacent to a forest and a creek. There was about a cm of wet mud, and underneath was solid, tough earth. A fair medley of muck and good earth were taken. |
| Naming Notes | The naming of the Phage is based on a popular character in many Role Playing Games. The Barbarian Orc, Gruunaga. |

| Characterization |
| Cluster | A |
| Subcluster | A6 |
| Cluster Life Cycle | Temperate |
| Lysogeny Notes | Central region is lysed while a turbid layer rings about the plaques |
| Other Cluster Members |
|
| Annotating Institution | Unknown or unassigned |
| Annotation Status | In GenBank |
| Plaque Notes | The plaque is of the bull's eye variant. Where the center is lysed and the edges of the colony are turbid. It generally needs between a 24-48 hour window to grow at 30 Celsius, and the plaques themselves are large and easy enough to see. |
