The Orcs are green humanoid creatures. They mostly live in forests, building small villages here and there, though they mostly conglomerate in moving tent cities. Orcs are naturally violent - but despite this, recently they have grown much weaker and now only hold territory in the southwestern forests.
Orcs are the strongest enemies found in Area 1, and the boss of Area 1, the Orc Leader, reflects this. They are still not very strong, however, and as long as the player does not run into them, they pose little threat.

The average orc wears a brown tunic and iron chain-mail, which provides enough protection to ward off stabbing attacks, particularly from daggers or knives, which many thieves use. It is insufficient against many larger blades or arrows.

Orc Commanders are the sergeants, lash-men, or otherwise the leader of a squad of orcs. They are directly accountable to the chieftain of their tribe, and as such are a very important part of the chain of command. Commanders are given much tougher mail, often made of steel, which makes their defenses slightly tougher to crack, along with a crude horned helm.

Each of the hundreds of tribes of Orcs are led by a Chieftain, who not only oversees the tribe's Commanders in wartime, but also makes sure that the everyday needs of the tribe are taken care of. An Orc Chieftain's armor consists of a scale-plated tunic, followed by blue scale mail and a horned helmet - and as such, they are quite tricky to fell. The higher chieftains form some of the richest individuals on the south coast.

Geldra is the high chieftain of the Orcs, a position that he has been elected to over twenty times and counting. Thought to be over sixty years old, Geldra still has the vigor and fighting spirit from when he was a young Orc. He became the chief of his tribe in his early 20s, which was unheard of prior to his appointment - and still no other chieftain is under thirty years old. Geldra wears the distinctive gold helm and mail of the high chieftain, and his presence is said to make battle lines out of unruly mobs. He can be defeated, but doing so will require a concerted effort.
