Orc

Orcs’ greenish pigmentation, sloping foreheads, jutting jaws, prominent teeth, and towering builds make their heritage plain for all to see. May have incredibly thick muscle, broad chests and shoulders and somewhat elongated arms, but generally stand upright and appear undeniably humanoid. Orcs regard battle scars as tokens of pride and ornamental scars as things of beauty. Other scars, though, mark an orc as a former slave or a disgraced exile. Such an orc living among humans might display these scars proudly or hide them in shame. Their history is filled to the brim with betrayal and death, with such examples like the destruction of their sacred homeland in 860 AB by one of their own leaders. Orcs mainly reside in DAVICA, the land in the southern region of the eastern border. Despite their evil reputation, many orc politicians try their best to make a good name for their species and eliminating any racial bias toward their people. But many families maintain old traditions of killing for sport.
