Ner'uk Orc Tribe

The Ner’uk tribe is a band of orcs that live on Mount Chihlimbar several thousand miles northwest of Guaso. Kes of the Firebreathing Kittens was raised by the Ner’uk. These orcs have a family structure very different from what city-dwellers in Guaso are used to, as the society is polyamorous, and no child belongs to one set of parents. Anyone who wants to be a mother or father can take care of the children at the home base, while anyone who wanted to hunt and fight could leave the base and come back as they wished. A new tribe leader would be elected every few years through a long trial consisting of fighting, magic tests, hunting, and leadership practice. The leader can be a patriarch or a matriarch, and a new leader can be elected either through an individual challenge or the tribe’s request.
The Ner’uk are generally peaceful, as they prefer to resolve territory disputes with other mountain denizens through negotiation rather than fighting. If they have to fight, though, they are very skilled and fearsome warriors. Their most notable fight was one what happened between the Ner’uk and an ancient white dragon that wanted to make their mountain its home. The orc tribe enlisted some local goblinoids and giants to also fight with them. After a long fight with many casualties, the mountain dwellers successfully killed the dragon and took back their home. This happened around 100 years ago and is the subject of many songs and bonfire stories.
The tribe also occasionally fights with some humanoids – mostly elves and humans – who misunderstand their way of life and consider them savages. Sometimes war breaks out when the humanoids want to colonize their mountains, and the Ner’uk have been successful in keeping their home so far.
