The pen-ultimate migrants to Initia, the proud Orcs of the East are numerous and the largest of the Eastern Kingdoms. These survivors are enigmas, even to themselves, for Orcish tradition is clear that they threw off the shackles of their creators but none remember who or how this was done. Whoever it is that made the Orcs made them for one thing: war. The are stronger than humans and elves and taller on average than both. But it's not their might in battle that makes them war machines, it is their relentless ferocity in their blood. It is said you need to kill an orc seven times before he truly dies.

Perhaps this predisposition for violence and ancestral durability is why the Orcs were able to escape their ancient masters. Regardless, many Orcs now prefer their domestic life of peace where they tend the land and live in harmony, worshiping their saviors, the Ancestors. Their might has made them fast friends with their southern neighbors, the Dragonborn, but their tendency for violence has put them at odds with most all other cultures, to the chagrin of all peace loving Orcs.
