Shattered Isles Orc
Orcs are a noble and honorable race. Strong and tough, they have an almost instinctual need to protect something, be that a person, place, or ideal. They are often placed in military leadership roles for their ability to both lead and teach those under their command. Behind all the pride and power however, many orcs struggle with a sense of emptiness or inadequacy. Most all orcs, no matter how much they've achieved, feel a powerful urge to go further, to do more. Because of this, orcs often find themselves in dangerous situations, letting nothing get in the way of their goals.
While orcs live as long as humans naturally, their selflessness and stubbornness lead to many dying young. An orc elder is a rare sight.
