Orc

Massive mindless monsters, the orcs of the western desert arose with the curse that doomed the once sylvan expanse of elvish land.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Humanoid, between 7 and 9 feet tall, extremely strong: brutish.

Ecology and Habitats

The Orcs live in the Eternal Desert, hunting the great sand lizards and fighting the Arib tribes.

Civilization and Culture

History

Arising soon after the human migration, the orcs have preyed upon the western border of the civilized world for an age. Their attacks are forever disorganized, and mostly harmless to empires as a whole. However, any settlements near the desert's edge (such as the town of Desert-Edge) live in constant fear of total annihilation. Any expeditions into the desert have failed as the roving bands of orcs increase exponentially in size and ferocity the further one travels into the desert.
