[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 8756602, member: 1125"] My Orcs are Neanderthals, a paleolithic Human subspecies who occupy the snowy lands of [I]D[I]ronovskaya[/I][/I] (Based on the Slavic-Urals-Siberia analogue) and yes they use skis. The society is Matriarchal and consist of clans of 20 - 50 members who occupy 2 - 3 caves across a territory and send small hunting mobs to radiate out from their Hearth-Caves. The Hearth-Caves are maintained by the Firekeeper (shaman). Orcs worship Fire and also venerate their ancestors, they are skilled hunters and stoneworkers. However due to the reduced tactile sensitivity of the thick Orc skin they lack manual dexterity and can not do fine precision work. Orc clans have a practice of driving out young male whelps, these whelps form raiding mobs that move between different clans but are not permitted inside the Hearth-Caves. The raiding mobs sometimes offer mercenary service to other races in return for shelter and access to metal weapons (this contributes to the stereotype of orcs as a savage warrior culture) Some inspiration for Ski wearing warriors = Muscovite invasion of Lithuania [ATTACH type="full"]259845[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
