Lineage II Orcs

Born of fire and disciplined towards military, the orcs have always been a race built for warfare. During the reign of the giants, the orcs served as the giant's military. After the fall of the giants, the orcs dispelled the ruling elves in combat and were it not for the elf-human alliance, would likely remained in power indefinitely. As it was, the humans, empowered by the teaching of the elves, were able to push the orcs to the northern icelands where they remain in force today.

Orcs are not an unhonorable race but are willing to serve and respect only those who are mightier than themselves. Since the time of the giants however, the race of orcs have possessed the greatest physical abilities and consequently they have seen themselves as unequalled. That is not to say however that individual members of other races have not gained the respect of the orcs.
