Deathbreeze Clan

Deathbreeze Clan is an Orc Clan, and the main clan of the Orc heroes in Arkain.

## Description

With the Orcs having arrived on the shores of Arkain on ships, them living on islands and
them being pillagers by nature, it comes to no surprise that many of them have become pirates.
Still, no other clan has become as famous by raiding as the Deathbreeze Clan.
When the Orcs first arrived and launched their first invasion of Arkain, the Deathbreeze Clan had
not even existed yet. The clan was founded after the invasion was put to an end by the races of Arkain.
This makes the Deathbreeze Clan one of the few clans that had been founded on Arkain - another one
being the Cliffhunter Clan - rather than already having existed before.
While the Elves have a hard time telling the difference between the different Orc clans and most of the
human nations not caring to know, the Kingdoms of Pyrru and Toran quickly had to learn a harsh lesson:
When the Goldaxe Clan attacked, you could give them gold and they'd leave. The Darkmind Clan would
launch a proper charge into the heartlands of your realms, allowing you to fight them on the open field.
But when the Deathbreeze Clan attacked, you were in for a guerilla strike. The Deathbreeze Clan mostly
focused on raiding villages and castles along the coastline while also being a threat to any unprepared fleet.
They were quick to strike and just as quick to return to their ships to leave.
Mobilizing an army on land against their ordinary raids was pretty much a waste of time.
In order to stop their raids, the Humans had to face them on sea - and going into a sea battle against the
rising might of the Deathbreeze Clan and its dangerous ships without proper preparations was just asking for trouble.

## History

After the Lord of Shadows spared some Orcs from the disastrous journey, they rebuilt and reorganized their clans. Deathbreeze was known to be the largest, and one, if not the strongest clan. They are able to build fleets capable of coastal raiding and open-sea warfare, and their soldiers were strong and quite capable raiders. They were led by several Orc leaders, but not always united, as factions like Rangul's and other clash for supremacy.

## Story

### Human Book

They were attacking the coastal areas defended by Merlon Seabright and the Imperial Army/Seabright's Elite. Merlon, alongside Salomar the Healer and Aedale Redfist defeated them.

Then, they with alongside other Orc Clans like Darkmind Clan, Goldaxe Clan, Bloodhand Clan, Ironthunder Clan and Skullblade Clan attacked and destroyed an Imperial outpost. An attack by Hammerfall and Elven Army destroyed their victory.

Then, alongside Darkmind Clan, they try to fight both Demons and Golden Guard.

### First Orc Book

Rangul, then a group leader raided Redfist territory, looting villages, killing villagers, and taking Vanessa Redfist alive. That actions made Rangul look weak at the eyes of others. He tries to do anything to change that, and that is raiding a nearby Imperial Army/Hammerfall/Elven Army expedition base nearby. He rescued a rival's base, then raided the camps, and looted the Scepter of Healing that the camp retrieved. Then, after the news of the Deathbreeze unified, they started reaching out to other clans, with Rangul helping Rath Wolfscar and the Darkmind Clan survive the onslaught of the Imperial Army/Royal Army/Kasrkin.

Then, they went to the island where several clans agreed to organize a meeting with their respective leadership, but the leader of Bloodhand Clan was arrogant, Ironthunder Clan declined, Goldaxe Clan needs money, and the Moghtar sent their soldiers to capture them all. Rangul, alongside allied clans like Darkmind Clan, Skullblade Clan, Ravaging Fire Clan, Bloodhand Clan (if Destroyer was killed) and Goldaxe Clan (if fulfilled the quota of 4000 gold), fought and defeated the Moghtar and the Ironthunder Clan.

The clan, led by Sasrogarn and Grofzag went on to build a fleet, and defeated Imperial Army/Seabright's Elite/Imperial Coastguard/Knights of Kome combined fleets and killed Merlon Seabright. But their victory was quickly dashed when Undead Nexus fleet destroys their ships.

Vanessa was captured by Knights of Kome. It took Zairmak, Rath Wolfscar and Sasrogarn to rescue her from the joint Knights of Kome/Elven Army/Hammerfall bases. Then, the clan joined the investigation of Undead Nexus presence. Despite the loss of Skullblade and Goldaxe leaders Gorthog the Blooddrinker and Dogran at the hands of Aridon the Watcher, they defeated the Undead, Demon Legion scouts, Human Slaves base, and the Imperial Army outpost. Finally, their much awaited battle against the Imperial Army under Selior Cleavehand, Lerrig Goldheart and Salomar the Healer begun. Rath Wolfscar was given the lead, with Rangul and Vanessa joining him, Sasrogarn and Zairmak defending the base from counterattacks and Undead Nexus flyers. They killed Progaderas the Smoking, built a Great Hall behind the Imperial Border Guard base, defeated Lerrig's men, Salomar's Paladin Order and the Cleavehand's Elite and Rath kills Selior. But a Demon Legion attack throws them in a disastrous rout.

### Second Orc Book

After regrouping with Rangul, he commanded Zairmak to regroup and reorganize any scattered units, Ephrog, Vanessa and Sasrogarn joining him in dealing with Goblins. At the Goblin camp, the clan was reproached by Amari and offering her assistance of the Cliffhunter Clan. Despite protests, they accepted. They fought the Imperial Regiments/Royal Army/Daric's Mercenaries/Salrian Army/Golden Guard forces and destroys their bases.

The clan lost Rangul when he went to find Dragons, held by Moghtar. The Ogres assisted him in reclaiming the area, but was cornered by Redfist/Hammerfall joint force. He and Ephrog was killed by Duke Volarian Redfist the Tyrant, after Vanessa betrayed them, or got warped by Zelech. Sasrogarn arrogantly took his father's place, while the rest supported Amari.

While Rangul was away acquiring dragons, and Amari and Okri was on Gnoll Island, Sasrogarn arrogantly commanded Flammedus, Grofzag, Zairmak and the Furbolgs to attack the Salrian Army/Imperial Regiments/ Redfist/Daric's Mercenaries bases.

Amari got the tragic news while fighting Redfist/Zora's Pirates/Imperial Regiment/Daric's Mercenaries. She and her new Gnoll and Harpy allies relieved the siege of the combined forces under Logan the Skirmisher, and later defeated the Undead Nexus/Pale Elves forces under Bonelords.

She later confronted, and killed Sasrogarn, thus becoming the leader of the clan. She merges all Orcs and allied races as Tribal Dominion.

### Undead Book

Undead Nexus under Largoth and Lord Veringar defeated them and the Imperial Army, killing Sasrogarn and Merlon Seabright. But betrayed Aridon the Watcher and wiped out all Undead present.

### True Story

The Deathbreeze Clan was raiding coasts as usual, with Pillage one of the playable.

## Unit Description

The Deathbreeze were known to be a clan of corsairs and pirates, and their navigational skills were at par with the navies the Humans can offer.
