Cult of Luthic
Structure
Few orcs directly prayed to Luthic, but she was among the most accepting of the orc gods and her clergy was prominent in most tribes, if only because she claimed the majority of female adherents. Males could also join despite her representation of the opposite sex, though they had be lawful as opposed to females who could be any evil, while nearly every other orc god permitted only male clerics. Males typically worshiped Luthic for her healing abilities and personal ferocity, and she was generally worshiped by orcs and half-orcs alike who desired safety, but her following was outwardly weak compared to most and subservient to that of Moldros. Still, the faithfulness of her devotees was enough to grant her plenty of power.
Culture
Integral to the Cave Mother's teachings was of the importance of earth, with which she had a strong affinity. Life sprang forth from the ground and the caverns sheltered that life, for caves were the bastion of orc strength and a source of their valor, ensuring the race would survive as long as they stayed close to the earth. This may show the tendency for Sea Orc societies to only pay lip service to her, seeing as they often no longer live on the ground. Furthermore, the Cave Mother was the the orc goddess of fertility, (moreso for females, with Moldros being prayed to for male virility) and Luthic demanded that orcs mated often and indiscriminately to ensure the race's hordes would swell each generation.
An orc life is a god-ridden life. Luthic's at birth, Luthic's at death, and striving to prove themselves to Moldros in between.
