Orcs

Originally bred by the elves of the Ibrahian Empire as slaves, the Orcs are a people haunted by their tortured past. After the fall of the Ibrahian Empire, Orcs embraced chaos as their driving doctrine, leading to a number of conflicts with other peoples, most famously the War of the Chaos Orc. The realm of Pia Xao was founded as a home for Orcs, but the Unraveling that followed soon after led to the realm's collapse.

Scattered in the years after the Unraveling, many Orcs found an accepting home in Casadia, whose people had no history of conflict with Orcs. Orcs have since become a well-respected group within Casadia, though they still face discrimination in other realms.

Only a rough estimate is available due to the scattered nature of the Orcish populace, but it is thought that at least 10,000 Orcs reside within the empire. They are found mostly in Minerva, Pia Xao, and Casadia.

Orcs tend to be nearly a head taller than humans on average and have a much thicker build. Some Orcs have long, patchy black hair, while others are entirely bald. Orcs have green or gray skin of varying shades. In terms of facial features, they have pointed ears similar to those of elves, and some of large front teeth that protrude from their lower jaw.
