Orcs

“Encountering the orcs is to witness raw power and brutality personified. Towering at around 8 feet tall, with their green skin, massive builds, and prominent tusks, they exude an intimidating presence. Male orcs bear larger tusks, adding to their fearsome appearance, while the females' smaller tusks do little to soften their formidable look. In their world, life is a constant battle for strength and dominance, a reflection of their short, violence-filled lives. The orcs' allegiance to the Starfang Tribe has only intensified their inherent savagery, making them a force to be reckoned with across the galaxy.” — Excerpt from the Journal of Explorer Talos Thorn


Physical Appearance:

Orcs are large and muscular, standing around 8 feet tall. They have green skin and bear prominent tusks, with males having larger tusks than females. Their formidable appearance is complemented by their powerful, bulky builds, making them fearsome and imposing figures.

Lifespans:

Orcs have a short lifespan, averaging around 40 years, but their high birthrate ensures that their population remains large and constantly evolving. Their brief lives are filled with the pursuit of power and strength, driving their culture and societal structures.

Culture and Beliefs:

Orc culture is brutal and steeped in principles of war, strength, and power. Life for an orc is short and violent, with an inherent belief in the necessity of being strong and powerful. Their homeworld was a chaotic and barbaric place, consisting of warring tribes, until they were discovered by the Explorers Guild and introduced to spacefaring technology and magic.

The introduction of advanced technology and magic led to the domination of their world by the Starfang Tribe, who unified the orc tribes under a single, powerful rule. The Starfang Tribe's conquest extended beyond their homeworld, resulting in the enslavement of nearby goblins and trolls. Most orcs proudly claim allegiance to the Starfang Tribe, reveling in their shared quest for power and domination.

Despite their violent nature, a small population of orcs exists elsewhere in the galaxy, often in professions that utilize their strength and ferocity. While orcs are generally known for their limited intelligence, those who manage to break free from the cycle of violence can find themselves in various roles, although they are often met with criticism and wariness from others.

Orcs are driven by a passion for pursuing strength and power, and their ferociousness makes them formidable warriors and laborers. Their brutal culture and short, intense lives shape their society, making them a force to be reckoned with in any context.
