Orc

One of the other primary races in Shouyen. Orcs are tribal and each tribe has its own leadership hierarchy. Each orc clan defines themselves by the strength of their tribe and value their families over everything else.

Many Orcs fight out of necessity but their hatred for Elves is fueled by the reciprocal nature of the attacks each side has mounted against the other. At this point the war between the races is a self fulfilling prophecy.
