Subraces
None available, maybe you can find some?Origins & History
The first Orcs were the people of Kruum - The Denier, who stood with him in his fight against the Darkness. When he rose to divinity, he reshaped them to better carry out this duty.Since this day the orcs of the world have spread themselves thin across the continent, rarely can you find one of their strongholds, populated entirely by them. Too great is the danger that a local lord would think them his personal army, to send against any petty foe.
Culture & Society
There is nothing an orc loves more than a good fight. For some it is the thrill of the battlefield, for others it is a heated debate in an open forum or in a court of law. Even learning a new skill is a battle against yourself.Orcs still carry that little bit of Kruum in them, inclining them to be resilient and helpful in the face of great adversity. Larger amounts of them can be found in the cities of the Southern Reaches.
“No matter what, if you have an orc by your side, your chances just increased by a lot.”
