Orkin

"Orkin sea shanties are a miraculous thing that sadly has been overlooked by basically everyone" - Dan the Deathless

Description (TEMP)

Originating from the nation of Orkin. Orcs are from a land where a large river splits into swampy delta before reaching the Void Sea. Because of this their settlements are much smaller than most other nations, using whatever stable land they can find. With the large number of waterways, the orcs developed a tradition of ship building and navigation. With these two elements the orcs developed into a society of near independent settlements ruled by chieftains giving loyalty to a high chieftain located in the largest settlement located in the southern area of the nation. Instead of roads almost all logistics is done though ships, creating a complex system of trade between the settlements. It is not uncommon for orcs to sign-on to ships as experienced sailors. Orklin and the G.A.C. are often in conflict as the Orcs send warbands to recover resources and technology from their more advanced neighbors. These attacks are led by fleets of river ships that function as mobile camps.
