[QUOTE="painandgreed, post: 3294993, member: 24969"] In the days when the empires of the elves and dwarves were waining and the men were growing strong, the other humanoid races prayed to the gods of chaos for aid. One of them heeded their prayers and kiddnapped a daughter of the head elven god and forced himself upon her and sealed her in a cave, meaning to send the child to the world as their savior. This child was born early as he clawed his way out of the womb and then feasted upon his mothers flesh. From her bones he made his bow and clothed himself in her hair, then he crept to the entrance of the cave and slew his father and also feasted upon his flesh, fashioning his spear from his spine and armor from his skull. He proceded to capture other races and create more like him as he was created. These male children he sent out into the world with the ability to breed with any other humanoid. Any child born from such a union would be a half-breed male whose birth would usually kill the mother. Only the female half-breeds could produce If a half-breed were to have children it would always be a half-breed unless the father was also a full breed or half breed and then the child would be a full breed. This new race take their lessons straight from their father who rules them through his clerics. He commands that they rule all the other races and make them their slaves. Their flesh shall feed them and what they produce shall make them rich. Any member of the race who is weak or breaks with his rule is to hunted down and killed, not that any would ever break with tradition because where would they go? Even the other humanoids fear them as they might propigate their species at the cost of their own. However, it is easier to direct them at your enemies than kill them, so evil humans and humanoids end up using them as mercenaries or allies, and allowing their raiding so long as it is not on themselves. Those are the orcs for my campaign. [/QUOTE]
