Greenskins (Lords of Chaos)

Orcs from various tribes
Greenskins (Lords of Chaos)

    Orcs and Goblins are both considered Greenskins by most. In fact some Dragonborn and Lizarfolk are also considered Greenskins. The Greenskins are unaware of their past of how they came into being, but is a great belief among their shamanistic culture that Phil, God of Life had given them life. They litter the wilderness with their tribes and gangs. Looked at as pests by most of society, the Greenskins have decided to rebel against all. Almost always Chaotic Evil in alignment.

    Since the Time of Awakening the Greenskins, most notably the Orcs, have been at war with the Dwarves and Northdwellers, but are friend to virtually no one. Goblins have found a niche as inventors and tradesmen in the northern territories of the Realm, but are a rare sight south of Vestrod. The Greenskins are usually allied with each other regardless of race.

    Greenskins will fight with almost anything and wear any type of armor they can salvage. Most Orcs from the north fight with Axes, because of the wide variety produced from the corpses of fallen Dwarves and Northdwellers. Southern dwelling Orcs will more than likely fight with swords and other weapons produced with in the borders of the Duchies of Itis. Tribal and shamanistic in traditions and religion most Greenskins fight for honor and pride among their people.

Tusked Greenskins
    Tusked Greenskins are Orcs, Trolls, and Ogres of Greenskin. They will dwell throughout the Realm serving who ever will pay(usually in food) the best. They are the most versatile of the Greenskins.





Small Greenskins
    Small Greenskins are Goblins and the like. They are usually traders and tend to keep themselves up north, unless paid by some evildoer. Goblins are rarely sympathetic and will never return money or give a refund of any kind.

  Tending to live in Goblar or Pash, the Goblins trade the various goods they salvage from the battles their tusked brethren participate in. They are often more of a nuisance in combat rather than a threat, but some Goblins become great shaman.


Scaled Greenskins      
    Scaled Greenskins are green Dragon Born and Lizardfolk. Green Dragonborn while not true Greenskins are looked down upon because of the color of their scales. Lizardfolk are also not truly Greenskins, but are grouped with them. Scaled members rarely communicate with the other Greenskins. Lizardmen or Lizardfolk live in the Great Swamp and rarely see any other type of Greenskin. They are almost always Chaotic Evil, but occasionally may be just Evil.

 Greenskin Dragonborns are the only Greenskins truly accepted by society as a whole. Dragonborn with Green Scales have an affinity for other races with the same color hue. They are also the only Greenskins that are Lawful Good and rarely are contrary to that.

 Like all Dragonborn they prefer to serve the light and become Paladins, Runepriests, or various other servants of the light. Greenskin Dragonborn receive a +1 bonus to any Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma involving another Greenskin due to the respect they are given by all Greenskins, because of their power and ferocity in combat.
