Geography
Lorukh is a vast and rugged continent. It is characterized by its diverse landscapes, ranging from icy mountain ranges to temperate valleys and dense forests. The most prominent geographical feature is The Rush, a towering mountain range in the north, known for its perpetual snow and treacherous terrain.
The Rush mountain range in the north is a defining feature of Lorukh. It is a place of great spiritual significance to the orcs, believed to be the dwelling place of ancient spirits and ancestral souls. The Frostguard, an elite warrior order, is responsible for defending The Rush and maintaining its sanctity.
The central valleys of Lorukh are fertile and dotted with villages and settlements. Here, orcs practice agriculture, cultivating crops and raising livestock. The temperate climate allows for a more settled way of life compared to the harsh conditions of the north.
Lorukh's eastern and western coastlines are dotted with coastal towns and trading hubs. These towns serve as gateways to the continent and thrive on maritime trade with other lands. They are known for their shipbuilding, fishing, and bustling markets.
Climate
Lorukh experiences a wide range of climates due to its size and diverse geography. The western regions, dominated by The Rush, are bitterly cold with long winters. Central Lorukh is more temperate and fertile, ideal for farming and settlement. The southern coastlines enjoy a mild maritime climate with milder winters.
