Orc

Orcs are almost exclusively settled abroad wide plains. Orcs have a nomadic or tribe oriented society, they rely heavily on horses and other mounts, and operate much like a Khalasar or early Mongolian horse tribe. In-fighting among different clans (called War-bands) is regular. Each War-band is ruled by a warlord, and each are seldom ruled the same. The rise and fall of warlords is common, whether by warring amongst other clans or themselves. Orcs deem personal strength and martial prowess as the most important part of their society. Male and female orcs are equal in terms of expectancy to become warriors and fight for the War-band. Orcs are not inherently evil, and are not immediately put off by other races; anyone who can prove themselves of worth or a warrior is welcome in an orc society, though some warlords are more xenophobic than others. Half-orcs are common among orc War-bands and are rarely seen negatively in their inclusion. Half-orcs are characterised by their brutish anatomy and size, as well as their skin colouring that almost always resembles their orc parent. Orcs are green-grey, with males usually being darker and greyer or earthier, while females are lighter, usually greener in hue or occasionally orange. Orcs on average stand between 6 and 7 feet tall. Males are usually shorter and broader than females.
