Orc Sub-races

In this portion of the wiki you will find lore on the various sub-races of orcs in Talnere

Orkaei's


IMPORTANT: Orc is the race name, Ork, with a 'k' is the abbreviation of Orkaei.

Orkaei or more commonly know as just Ork, are the most well-known sub race of the race. Most Orkaei are truly savage beasts, said to be able to just swing a blade, and make it cut through bone like butter. Orkaei tend to solve any problems with war, and if war can't solve the problem...then they solve it themselves, with their own methods. Orkaei tend to live in harsh desert weather, they love the extreme conditions of the area, and some believe it adds to their strength. The Orkaei are very tall, muscular people ranging from dark-yellow to forest-green in color. They have the common Orc eye color of red, black, or dark-blue. Most live to be around 850.

Ogre's


Ogre's are the Orkaei's war machines. They are HUGE berserkers that can easily take on three-to five medium sized, armored humans and win. Ogre's are true savages, for even some Orkaei fear them. They are ruthless, merciless abominations who don't even tend to follow the Orc code. Most Ogre's tend to live far out in forests, or deep in caves or dungeons, alone..for they detest being around anyone who isn't anther Ogre, and that includes the other two sub-races of Orc. Ogre's are relatively heavy (but they will claim it is all muscle). They stand tall at around 8'9" for most. And weight roughly 350-400 pounds. Most are not wearing anything on the top half of their body. They have the usual Orc eye color of red, black, or dark-blue. And most live to around 785. A warning about Ogre's...if you see one, or if you spot a particularly large bonfire. RUN! Ogre's are EXTREMELY territorial.

Goblins


Goblins are the Orc's spy's. They drive people to do things and cause mischief and commotion. If the Orcs want a town to go into a little chaos, they wouldn't send an Ogre as they would smash everything to the Nether, and Orkaei are the most common, so no one would that nervous..they would send a Goblin. Goblin's have a tendency to be annoying, talkative, taunting little buggers, and little is not used lightly as the tallest Goblin reported was about 3'9". Goblin's can also be found lurking around in forests or dungeons, taunting and lurking mortals to their doom. It has been repeatedly reported that a handful of mortal's have fallen victim to the Goblin's taunting. Most Goblins have grey, to black eye color. The oldest recorded Goblin was said to live until 37 (Goblins age once every century), but most tend to die earlier due to mortal's growing tired of their gawking, and ending the Goblin's life early.
