Orcs are a naturally strong and resilient race, and Orc Warriors are among the strongest. They have broad shoulders, muscular torsos, and massive hands, in which they wield axes. Warriors have helmets, often adorned with fur or horns, and they wear steel shoulder pads. Their garments also include heavy, metal-plated boots and sturdy leather trousers, essential for long expeditions.
Warriors fight whenever necessary, and when not on a war expedition, they are tasked by their commanders with numerous duties to prevent chaos and brawls in the cities. The warriors’ belligerent and aggressive temperament means that unit leaders not only need to know how to lead them but are also experts in all forms of punishment and pain. This makes an Orc Warrior less afraid of the enemy and more afraid of his commanders, champions, and mages. Every Orc Warrior knows that by following the warrior’s path, they themselves may one day become a commander, even a champion. Therefore, although they fear the wrath of their superiors, they also hold them in great admiration.
Above all else, Orc Warriors value their weapons – axes made of Midezir. This black metal with a subtle burnt red tarnish is exceptionally resistant to damage and rust. It retains its sharpness remarkably long and is not brittle. Its only drawback is its slightly greater weight compared to steel. For many races, this is a significant obstacle to using Midezir weapons, but for strong Orcs, the advantages of this metal outweigh its cons.
