Orcs

Roggos is remembered as a garrison as much as a homeland: fortified, watchful, and shaped by the need to answer danger without ceremony.

The wastes do not forgive excess. Food, water, shade, poison, and distance all become political facts because every mistake has a bodily cost.

The approach to orc lands teaches travelers what orcs already know: supply matters, endurance matters, and polite plans break quickly under heat and scarcity.

Orc society respects strength, but not only brute strength. The ability to endure hunger, poison, injury, and insult without breaking is a civic virtue.

The wastes punish division. Orc identity is therefore shaped by formation, signal, rhythm, and shared response.

Orcs are not impressed by weakness disguised as refinement. They survive by refusing many things: poison, pity, panic, and easy surrender.
