History

In 158 BD, during the Draco-Giant War, the first true military test of the combined forces of the First and Second Dragon Armies was their successful invasion of the unprepared survivors of Green earth, including the Yuan-ti, orcs, and other inhabitants. This decisive victory convinced many neutral bands—hobgoblins, ogres, orcs, and minotaurs—to align with the dragon armies, though several holdouts remained.
Among these holdouts was the Horseskull clan, who sought ways to preserve their neutrality. Refusing to align with the dragon armies, they turned to their ancestral spirits for aid. However, the elemental powers of their spirits proved insufficient against the might of the dragons. Sseth's wingduke, the second-in-command of the Second Dragon Army, chose to honor the Horseskull Clan's neutrality. Defying orders, he stood as their protector.
The wingduke's decision cost him his rank and, ultimately, his life. He died defending the Horseskull Clan, but with his final breath, he revealed the secrets of the circle of the draconic to the orcs. This sacred knowledge, combined with the orcs' existing shamanistic traditions, gave rise to a powerful new practice. This fusion of traditions enabled the orcs to endure and thrive through the dragon's era.
