Orc

Orcs are a race of goblinoids that have been a pest to the civilized cultures of Faerûn for as long as any can remember. They breed fast and as soon as they have enough soldiers they swarm out of their mountain homes to burn, loot, kill and occasionally rape. Seemingly, these attacks are fuelled by a hatred of other races and a lust for violence. Experiments in crossbreeding orcs with other species has also resulted in the creation of tanarukks.

Subraces

 * Mountain orcs: Mountain orcs were the first recorded orc breed, originating in the North Faerûn where a portal was built by one of the Creator Races during the first civilizations of Abeir-Toril in areas such as the Spine of the World mountain range. This is where most orcs still originate. Survivors from raids made their way south through the years, breeding at an exponential rate and raiding further south. This is why orcs can be found anywhere in Faerûn rather than just in the northern regions.


 * Gray orcs: Gray orcs are also not native to Faerûn and were in fact introduced, in -1076 DR throught the Orcgate, sparking the Orcgate Wars. Although the portal that brought the gray orcs to Faerûn was closed and their armies broken, there were many survivors who have gone on to procreate like the western natives.


 * Orogs: are descended from mountain orcs and live mostly in the Underdark, though in recent years they have been returning to the surface in large numbers and taking over Mountain orc tribes, using their abilities to bully their 'lessers' and plan raids.

Notable orc tribes
King Obould Many-Arrows was responsible for raising one of the largest orc hordes ever seen, which went on to attack Mithral Hall and the surrounding area, threatening a large part of Northwest Faerûn.

The orcs in the Sword Mountains were responsible for several conflicts with Waterdeep, including the Orcfastings War, and an onslaught caused by the Black Claw. They were at least partially responsible for the Trollwars.

Orcish Hordes


The orcs are an ancient species, their hatred for the Human race is unmatched. Orcs believe that they are eternally at war with mankind. It's true that humans think that orcs are just brainless brutes, which was in fact real, but that age has gone and their intelligence has increased greatly, in fact an orc that went by the name of <":"/> (orcish text when written), Oblon Oblivion (orcish language when pronounced), The Green Hammer (The meaning), son of Grevious the leader of an orc mountain tribe named Gorvenus, based in the Akrab Mountains (the mountains iron) which was run by the Mercedez army (known as the army of the labyrinth, it is consisting of men whose god is the minotaur, their armour is bull-like, in respect of the heavenly fusion which unites bull and man to form the ultimate being). The orcs forged their weaponry and some even made armour from their surroundings, the mountain, nearby villages which they raided very often knowing that the soldiers wouldn't get there in time due to the distance between. The orcs were a primitive humanoid/goblinoid race who were driven to the brink of extinction in most parts of the world because of man, there are such seasons involving orc hunting. Oblon Oblivious changed the face of the orc for ever, he spent years taking the ignorance of man but in the mean while he accepted it, he was secretly configuring a new line of military for them to ensure that the survival of the orc would last through winter and maybe one day make the human race face certain doom, he developed a military program so sophisticated that even the humans could not figure out how it operated, he had the orcs adopt the human language also, and made certain armour and weapons, he developed new types of orcs and with in 5 days of his finish he united every mountain orc tribe, he put them under special training for every type, he evolved their intelligence to a wider selection. And with in 1.7 weeks he destroyed the Mercedez army, it went so fast because the underestimated the orc, they came swarming out of the mountains in massive numbers with a strategic military plan.

Orcish Military Camps
(The Preparations Taking Place)

Orcs organize bands of trained soldiers, bands consist of 10,000 orcs per, bands are places into unite, units consist of about 50 bands, there are so many types of different units over thousands, units are placed with in sectors which contain 100 units, 5 of which are multiplied (5 of the same units). which are there for put into legions or as the orcish terms describe it "Hordes". The have also developed a fusion technique, a fusion of 2 bands which are called "Doom Codes" in doom codes thay just don't have another band match up beside, they equalize it out for a perfect shape consisting of 20,000 strong, at the sign of a hand signal the single band, every orc soldier steps 5 inches from his other companions so that everyone is separated as an individual, then the second band walks into the first band and when they find their place in line, then at another hand signal they lock at the same time and make a solid. But on top of all these bands, units, sectors, and that, there are positions above, there are 2 types of hordes. One hordes is the main army that out, the other hordes consist of completely different units, and are also known as the stronger horde.

The War Between Dominants
There has always been a war between the 2 dominant powers of orc and man.
