Gargu-Khanu or Black Orcs
Gargu-Khanu Black Orcs or Uruks as they sometimes call themselves average five feet some getting as tall as 6 feet. Khanu are the tallest, largest, strongest, and most murderous of all Gargun sub-species. They are covered in black to patchy dark brown fur. They have no discernable skills other than fighting, killing, and the will to dominate the weak. Fortunately for the rest of Hârn, they breed far more slowly and kill each other much more readily than any other Gargun species.
Gargu-Khanu are rarely found in nomadic bands nor are they good builders. Instead, Black Orcs seek out other colonies of of weaker orcs and take over their cave complexes, enslaving and ruling over the smaller Gargu-Araki, Kyani, and Hyeka. Sometimes they will form hybrid societies incorporating Streaked, Brown and White orcs together in the same complex.
Gargu-Khanu Red Orcs and there is always bloodshed when the two species interact.
