[The legends about orcs turned out to be true]

Biography

Vulgard is a young orc, approximately 26 years old by human standards. This is his first raid as a full-fledged warrior. His father, an orc warrior, was killed in a clash with humans. His mother is a human woman, who, according to orcish tradition, has no social significance or rights. Her existence is ignored and she is not considered family.

Orcs are a single- species, reproducing with the help of other races. The absence of "orc women" is their biological norm, not a consequence of war.

Vulgard has an unusual attraction to young. While other orcs see children only as future warriors, he dreams of raising and nurturing his own offspring, which is considered a strange weakness among orcs.

His interest in "cute things" may be a subconscious connection to his human half, which he neither recognizes nor understands.

Captives (humans, elves, and other humanoids) are a necessary resource for reproduction and slave labor. They are treated like cattle, kept in caves, beaten, and fed garbage. Pregnant captives are kept in pens until they give birth, after which the babies are taken away, and the mothers are returned to the communal caves.

Vulgarda, unlike her fellow tribesmen, treats her captive with astonishing care. She will keep them in her hut, feed them well, and protect them. Such treatment is a great rarity and a privilege.
