The Wilds

The wilds have to be the deadliest area on the world of orion. dark woods filled with deadly creatures and even deadlier plants. orcs traverse the coasts along the south edge of the wilds, while goblins and gnolls plague the northern edge. the wilds however haven't always been a deadly maze filled with creatures ready to devour anything that moves. before the war the wilds were filled with flourishing farms and many orc tribes. back then it was known as lukash a safe haven more many of the orc kind that roamed this area. the wilds are the biggest area making it the best place for the more nomadic tribes of orc. once the war began and the elves began their incursion several orcs were hunted for sport, after the majority of the orcs were killed off the elves dicovered a dark power that could give them the edge in the war. after several tries to harness this power the elves released a horrific being into this world. the being immediately set to work on corrupting the land change and mutating the wilds into what they are today. pure demonic and evil creatures burst into orion and plagued the wilds and burned the peaceful orc tribes that were left after the mas genocide the elves brought down on them. many creatures that were unaffected by the transformation, and had a strong will, immediatly set forth to try to save the wilds. it is whispered that even to this day there is a hidden group that try to bring back the old lukash.

"i camped in the wilds for about a month, and while i don't scare easy, there were several things i saw witch could make any man run in fear. for instance i swear that i saw a squirrel the size of a panther!" - the encyclopedia of everything written by Barg the golem

after the dark entity was released and changed the wilds it disappeared and has not been seen since. several of the residents that still live in the wilds speculate that it will one day apear again and try to take over. but for some the wilds is home to death and they refuse to ever go near it.

several creatures call the wilds home, but perhaps the most daring of them all is the orcs that live soley in the wilds. in doing so several orc tribes have seperated in order to cover most of the wilds. when something deadly arrives in the wilds the orcs will force it back or kill it. if one tribe can not take down a particularly deadly creature the orcs will band together to kill it. after several years of fighting the orc have become experts in the extermination of these dark creatures. 

"ive met several orcs and i have to say there has never been a more rowdy bunch. yes i may have lost an arm twice to orc bar fights but i would gladly do it all over again."- the encyclopedia of everything written by Barg the golem
