Orc

There are two kinds of Orcs. The kind that fled Falkreg, and the kind that live there.

The ones that fled their home country are mostly sell swords and mercenaries. As time passed by, some small tribes actually formed throughout Erilen. These small hordes are what give the Orcs the stereotype of being a group of pillaging, ugly brutes.

The ones living in Falkreg are at constant war. They form their own tribes and nations lead by one War chief, and are separated from other tribes in the way that they each seek to prove that their war chief is the Messiah of Orc Kind. The Messiah is said to be the son of the Orcish god, and that he will one day unite all of Orc kind together to create the perfect nation. Orcs often change their belief in who the messiah is many times in their life, as when their war chief dies, it proves them wrong, and causes their tribe to wander off in search of a new chief.

Orcs are tall and muscular folk, each standing between 6-7 feet tall. Orcs are stereotyped as being pig faced brutes, with ugly faces or scars, ragged ears, and two tusks that protrude from the sides of their thick lips. Their skin tone varies quite a lot, but the most common hues are shades of oranges and reds. Green skinned orcs are exclusively shaman.

Some Orcs are blessed with a significantly larger amount of muscle and prowess. These Orcs are called Rams, and can reach staggering heights of up to 8 feet. Rams are far more capable than their smaller relatives, and often times serve as the messiah and war chief of Orcish tribes.

Orcs from Falkreg believe in Bah'Quell, the ascended Orcish god of war.

Magic(If any):

Orc Sorcerers are considered a sacrilege in Orc society. All sorcerers, orc or not, are immediately hunted down and killed on sight. Orc sorcerers are easily spotted, as magic performed by Orcs generally affect bodily appearance. The term 'black handed' refers to when someone is caught directly conducting a crime, and references how Orcs often end up with black hands from conducting dangerous sorcery.

Orc Druids are always green skinned, and are often quite powerful. Druids of Orc society are revered by their tribe, and a small council of them generally acts as the main advisers to the war chief himself.

Orcs using miracles are generally war priests or paladins under their god.

Rams almost never use magic, but it's possible. (I probably won't let you play as a Ram anyway.)
