Orcs

Standing six to seven feet tall, with grey green or black skin. They have pointed bat-like ears, slitted nostrils instead of noses and broad mouths often with under bites and exposed tusks. They are typically burly and considered one of the more bestial of the known races. Their proclivity for violence made them a good fit in Utgardian society, where warriors are awarded with respect and titles.
In Anestor, the Marcisians have all but eradicated orc clans, but in the fifty years since the revolution, orcs are returning. Some integrate themselves into society successfully, but for generations the Marcisians ruled, and during that time, they painted a picture of orcs as violent monsters, and as the years passed those stereotypes became common place. Finding legitimate work became quite difficult in Anestor for Orcs, so many looked for less legitimate means of survival, resorting to banditry. The worry of perpetuating a less than complimentary stereotype was trumped for many by the desire to survive.
