Racial Ability: Rakish Might: Orkhai are known to be considerably stronger and more enduring than other races, due to their powerful physiques. Their muscles are thicker and more dense than others, which appears to give them enhanced strength as well as durability. While this difference is not all too vast, it offers them a predisposition towards being dangerous melee brutes.

History
The Orkhai, or Orks, have a very recent history on Atharen. In fact, they have only existed in the world for a matter of around four hundred years. This is because -- as is well known -- they are originally from the plane of Bel, as brute servants to the Dregs, acting as their green-skinned mortal tools who participate in the Endless War and feed souls to the Corrupted Gods upon their death. The first of their kind to escape through the Pit flooded through the Wastes, only to make their way towards the mountains overlooking Radenor, Daravin and the other nations of Mornoth's border. From there, their relationship with the other races quickly soured, leading to the first Dreg Wars.

Reproduction, Aging, and Death
The Orkhai weren't intended to live long. They were intended to be used as a power source for the Gods of the Endless War, living a quick life as a soldier only to shortly after fade, surrendering their souls to their creator. For this reason, they have short lifespans, do not really have reproduction cycles, and if born on Bel, they tend to be born fairly developed, reaching full adulthood in a matter of a few years. WIP.
Language
The Orkhai speak Malgoth, the common tongue of Bel. WIP.
