NatureHistory (Past)
Orcs are very strange creatures, as they have been likened to Fae on countless occasions due to their supernatural locations. However, they are more akin to Demons than Fae, and the ancestor of all traditional Orcs is actually ruler of an Underworld, and is considered a Demon. Thus, by default, Orcs, the offspring of 'Orcus', the ruler of said Underworld, are Demonic in nature and genetics. Though the origin of Orcs is purely demonic, over time, they came to be known as a term for Half-Humans with Demonic qualities. Even so, Orcs are still to this day, the uneducated about the very cryptic creatures consider them to be a type of Fae.
Habitation (Present)
They live in groups and are often found in dark or mountainous regions. They are also known to inhabit demonic places, such as Underworlds. They can sometimes be found among other civilizations, usually Humans or Demons.
Purpose (Future)
Describes its function in the ecosystem, or what it does naturally, and how it's supposed to be used to continue Nature into the Future.
Specific Info (Species)Species Info
Orcs are a brutish, aggressive, ugly and malevolent race of Half-Human and Half-Demon creatures, though they share a human sense of morality that keeps them from giving in completely to their Demonic heritage. There is a suggestion, among several somewhat contradictory origin stories, that they are a corrupted race of elves, but in truth, they originate from Demons and eventually intermingled with Humans. They are depicted as ugly and filthy, with a taste for human flesh. They are typically fanged, bow-legged, and long-armed. Orcs eat meat, including the flesh of Men, and may indulge in cannibalism.
They are said to be related to Trolls, potentially insisting Orcs can mate with Trolls, since Trolls are similar to Ogres. Their namesake also means 'Ogre', which is basically related to the 'Oni' or 'Ogres' that are a type of Demon, which is where their predecessors come from. Due to their Demonic heritage, they have noses capable of accurate olfactory sense for great distances. Considered to be aggressive scavengers and opportunistic carnivores, they possesses human-level intelligence and an even higher level of cunning. Violent by nature, they will fight ferociously if compelled but tend towards more chaotic or destructive behavior such as pillaging.
Like humans, Orc skin pigmentations vary depending on environmental factors. The most common pigmentations include green, brown, red, and pink. Other colors such as blue, gray, or even purple have also been noted. Orcs are intelligent, sometimes pig-like monsters that hunt in packs. Normally highly ferocious and lustful, they are capable of becoming reasonable and cooperative with humans or other species, including other Demons. Once they've spotted a target, they form groups and attack in an effort to capture them. Those who have been abducted like this are taken off to the Orcs' homes, where they are made into slaves or food.
However, when attacked, if one manages to defeat them instead, they will recognize the victor as their master, whom they will then obey almost as if they were slaves. On the other hand, if one were to attack and lose, the Orcs would be very oppressive. For the victors who become masters, the Orcs may change their nature completely, seemingly catering to their human side over their demonic side.
As described, they have a dual nature, both weak and strong, strong and weak. However, it’s more like it comes from instinct than personality. If they have never known defeat, they will enjoy the pleasure of terrorizing, but once they are defeated, they become subservient. Thus, their loyalty to their master is very extreme and very real, and it is engraved in their instinct.
Orc packs can often be seen being led by Elder Orcs. These Elder Orcs are well-educated and in tune with their Demonic heritage, which grants them arcane abilities that naturally invigorate the Demonic side of other Orcs and gives them savagery and fighting spirit. However, should an Elder Orc be defeated in battle, all nearby Orcs will become distressed and discombobulated.

They are extremely ferocious and intelligent monsters who actively assault people, but they move really slowly. However, they are very sly and usually attack in groups. They are very intelligent and can also be merciless or carnivorous, fueled by their Demon Blood. They are extremely carnal, and normally all they think about is having sex, fighting, and eating, wandering around in search of those they can target. The more advanced or educated types tend to become civilized and sociable, though.

NatureHistory (Past)
The first Elder Orc was said to have been born when an Orc acquired the full strength of their Demonic heritage, thus amplifying their powers to that of both a full demon and a full human whilst still retaining each previous half attributed to them. With this, they gained access to heightened emotions, intelligence, and demonic power. Their natural essence is a type of aphrodisiac to other Orcs, which makes them unify under the command of the Elder Orc, who commands them from their demonic bloodline.
Habitation (Present)
Orc Civilizations
Purpose (Future)
Elder Orcs are Orcs that, like their name suggests, command Orc packs. Stronger and more ferocious than regular Orcs, Elder Orcs are typically seen as indomitable by the other Orcs. However, should an Elder Orc be defeated in battle, especially by a another Orc, all nearby Orcs will become disoriented and susceptible, making them easy to control by either another Orc or another being which defeated them.
Specific Info (Species)Species Info
Despite their thickheaded appearance, they possess both demonic strength and arcane intelligence. They are known to charge through obstructions head-on and by doing so, they can easily send a crowd of people flying; even heavily-armored knights or large boulders would be knocked into the air.
They are leaders who command hordes of Orcs that gang up before mobilizing. As powerful, courageous champions, their mere presence is inspiring to the Orcs, overriding their intimidation and causing them to maximally exhibit their instinctive nature. Orcs under the command of an Elder Orc become bolder and attack others without hesitation. The Elder Orcs themselves even exceed Orcs in ferocity and belligerence; true to their own desires, they take action in pursuit of others who will serve as their prey and aggressively hunt them until either side expires. They have the same devious personalities as Orcs, and it is said that sometimes they even lead armies to attack human villages or bandit strongholds and such.
If an Elder Orc gives the order, the frenzied Orc warriors will rush all at the same time, and a target captured by them is subservient to satisfying their carnal desires, including as food or sex slaves. While the presence of an Elder Orc inspires absolute confidence in Orcs and makes them feel powerful, on the other hand, the defeat of an Elder Orc causes all the Orcs to become distressed and susceptible. It's said that even orcs who had supposedly been raging a short time ago would uniformly lose the will to fight and become cowardly.

Abilities (Arts)Natural/DisciplineLegion Pheromones - An Elder Orc's body produces a peculiar odor, and when Orcs get a whiff of it, it intoxicates them and excites their demonic natures, which brings them to unification something like mind control. Unbeknownst to most, they are also able to alter their body odor into a scent that’s alluring and controlling of other species.
