Races of Cryptillia
Orc
Orcs are violent, invasive and
heavy-handed, preferring to fight rather than negotiate. They have a low level
of language and intelligence, living in tribal organisations, with each tribe
being run by a warlord, with several advisers, appointed by the warlord
himself. It is accepted, however not always true, that the warlord should
follow the advice of these advisors! Orcs spend most of their time fighting –
if a suitable enemy cannot be found, then they will fight among themselves
instead! When Orcs are not fighting, they are either sleeping or feasting –
usually on boar or horse, or any other meat they can find. Orcs have an immense
hatred for elves and their respect for the natural world, and given the choice
to attack any race, would choose to attack elves. Their second worst enemies
are Dwarves, a deep hatred that is shared by both races and spans back to the
first age of magic, where ancient Dwarves drove the first Orcs from their
homeland in a particularly grisly battle.
