Sunstep Orc

AR-Sunstep Orcs r1

The Sunstep are the valley's orcs - a brown-skinned, black-haired people of sun and rain who farm floating gardens below their Dry Mesa, keep a calendar cut in stone, and hold that the sun gives, the rain answers, and both must be thanked in kind. Tall and powerfully built, just over six feet, ornamented in featherwork, turquoise, and polished obsidian as a matter of national policy. Disciplined, devout, and fierce in war. They live about sixty years.

NOTES
