Lore of Orcs
This magic is commonly used by orcish war
shamans who draw psychic power from the
aggression of brutal combat. Much of it is psionic
in nature and specializes in disrupting other enemy
spellcasters and enhancing the combat powers of
the caster and their allies. Orcish shamans believe
these powers are drawn from the spirit of their war
gods, and the most powerful of these spells seem to
even partially manifest their god's presence on the

shamans wield the unpredictable and violent magic of the
orcish pantheon. Their role as intermediaries between the
mortal realm and the gods makes them both respected and
feared, for their powers are mysterious and often

 Big Stabbers
In ancient times, orcs hunted truly colossal behemoths—
creatures of monumental size and ferocious temperament,
their hides so thick that even orcs of primal disposition
struggled to pierce them. Avoiding the wrath of an enraged
titan in time was nearly impossible. However, despite their
crude and straightforward thinking, the savage orcs devised a
weapon specifically for felling these gargantuan beasts: the
big stabber.
This massive spear features an outlandishly large, jagged
flintstone point, nearly as tall as an orc itself. So unwieldy is
this weapon that it requires two orcs to haul it into battle,
gripping the long shaft tightly above their heads as they
charge at full speed. Upon reaching their monstrous quarry,
they drive the spear forward with the combined force of their
momentum, brute strength, and deranged faith—enough to
sunder even the toughest armor. When it gains full thrust, the
big stabber can bring down an armored war elephant or
maim even larger creatures.
Yet, for all its power, this rudimentary weapon is as
unreliable as it is devastating. The flint spearhead is
notoriously brittle, meaning the Big Stabber can typically
only be used once or twice before it dulls or shatters—
especially if an orc puts their full strength behind it.
Additionally, its sheer size makes it highly predictable. A
nimble opponent with decent reflexes can often sidestep the
attack, causing the orcs wielding it to stumble and even trip
over their own weapon.
Despite these drawbacks, big stabbers remain highly
sought after by orcs outside the savage tribes, particularly in
battles against armies that field monstrous cavalry. Strangely,
even the most skilled orcish weapon makers outside these
wild tribes seem incapable of creating stabbers as effective as
those made by their primal kin, nor are they able to wield
them to their full potential. For some unknowable reason,
only the savage orcs possess the preternatural knowledge
required to craft and wield these titan-slaying spears.
Big Stabber Tactics
The big stabber always targets the largest creature in the
area, with savage orcs putting as much force behind their
attacks as possible. They will seize any opportunity to strike
again, retreating briefly to reposition before lunging forward
for another devastating stab—unless their weapon is already
impaled in their target.

 Iron Orcs
Iron orcs are an elite subrace of orcs
shrouded in mystery, their origins
unknown. Some legends whisper that
they were created by a malign empire
to serve as slave soldiers, bred for war
and obedience. This dark history,
whether true or not, has imbued the
iron orcs with a unique sense of
purpose and a grim determination that
sets them apart from their more chaotic
kin.
Unlike their rowdy and wild kin, iron
orcs are characterized by their dour and
serious demeanor. They approach battle
with a level of discipline and focus that
is rare among orcs. This seriousness is
reflected in their daily lives as well,
where frivolity and infighting are kept to
a minimum. Iron orcs see themselves as
the pinnacle of orcish strength and
discipline, and they hold themselves to a
higher standard, both on and off the
battlefield. This disciplined lifestyle
fosters a sense of fierce camaraderie and
mutual respect that is uncommon in
other orc clans.
