Ironstomach Tribe

The Ironstomach Tribe is the largest and most notable Orc Tribe within the Eastern Islands and has been a thorn in The Republic's side ever since before the start of The 3rd Era. The Ironstomach Tribe has had many leaders but only two are well known and feared. Torgorn Ironstomach was the usurper of the former leader and the namesake of the tribe. Torgorn terrorized Loggers on Silvestria and led the raid on Barksnap which is ultimately where he died. Torgorn Ironstomach died in a way that will for eternity cause fear in the Settlers of Silvestria as he was mortally wounded and to prove that he would only die if he won, Torgorn lit himself on fire after naming his eldest son as his successor and ran through Barksnap burning it down along with him laughing as he burned to death. His son, Gadrokk took over as chieftain after challenging his brother for the title and emerged victorious. Gadrokk's name may not yet bring as much fear as his Father's but settlers already know of his some of his greatest achievements; defeating Larga Brutalheart (The best known warrior within the tribe) in battle and claiming her as his concubine, Exiling his Older Brother who changed his name to Hargesh Bloodskull and took many supporters with him to create a rival tribe and lastly having his Blood Brother Karthak Goreblade create a Secondary Ironstomach Tribe camp on the larger Goldhill island. Many Settlers fear that Gadrokk will become an even fiercer force than his Father
