the world i'm in the midde of creating and currently running features an Orc empire loosely based upon the Rome, at least in so far as vassal kingdoms are concerned.
the empire was established when Orc tribes united under the banner of their strongest tribe, fearing the threat of genocide at the hands of a united human/dwarven front. and it grew and evolved as it adapted and learned from the ways of its subjugated kingdoms.
i made the empire to create a background for half-orc and even full-orc PCs in my world.
anyway. the story for the game as it is thus far is that i hooked the PCs into the plot by using a string of kidnappings as bait. this led to the discovery of an illegal slave trade which is apparently a source of funds for a growing cult to a foreign god. an orc god unlike the gods of the empire detailed above...
i know where i want to take this. but i was curious to see what sort of input i can get like criticisms or different ideas for where to go...
