Garasky

Garasky, often referred to as Giant-Kin are a group of very diverse cultures. They are grouped together due to their geographical location and their united front in a war against the true giants.

Orcs

Often seen as big, dumb, barbaric, and uncultured, those who see the inside of the Orcs culture are often surprised by what they find. While war is their preoccupation, it is primarily for use as a defensive tactic since the Giants in Nerowen have been encroaching on their lands.

Physical Traits

Orcs are large humanoids with pale green skin and black hair, when they have hair. Orcs are usually over 6 feet 6 inches tall and weigh between 260 and 300 pounds.

Cultural Traits

Community

Family and by extension community is the most important pillar of Orc society. Most of what Orcs would call a morality or code is eventually going to be defined in an effort to support their community. At the age of maturity, all orcs enter into military service that can range from a year to several depending on if there is an active engagement to participate in. After this service, they choose a job in their community that needs filling and that they have a predilection for.
Honorable Warriors Although martial abilities and glory are not tantamount to Orc society, they do believe in the honor of war. They treat enemy prisoners with care and while they will almost always require a ransom, will return them to their homeland.

Orc Names

Orcs have a single name given to them at birth. Only those who have an important family such as nobles and great warriors carry on a family name. Those who have a family name but themselves have not done anything of importance will usually not use the family name to avoid dishonoring it.

The Orcish Border

Historically, Trolls have kept to themselves in their swamp settlements of Umelia. After a short war, they began to maintain a buffer between themselves and the Orcs in Wend. All settlements along this border are military bases rather than traditional settlements.

A Culture of Music

A love for and use of music in all parts of life is nearly ubiquitous in Troll culture. Every event religious or otherwise is accompanied by music and often dancing.
When Trolls have disagreements that can't be easily resolved or neither side wants to compromise, a battle of wits is scheduled. During the battle, the sides take turns dancing and singing insults at each other until one is too humiliated or exhausted to continue.

Troll Names

While Trolls are given a name at birth by their parents, it is common for a Troll to change their name every 5 to 10 years.
