The Krughai

[the 1 bow 1112]

 

The Krughai

 

The formal hierarchy and social ladder of what is known as the War Nation. Every Uruk, Goblin and Olog is expected to be a part of the Krughai in some form or another. The Krughai determines their place in society, and through feats of exceptional strength, intelligence or honor, they will ascend it.

 

- Ranks -

 

Rex Kahn'Braduk

 

The Supreme Commander of the Iron Uzg and Krughai alike.

 

- Targoth -

 

At any time there may be two Targoths at most. Responsible for ensuring the Uruks are fighting fit and trained properly, the Targoth is also the second in command on the battlefield, and permitted to lead raids on their own initiative. They may only receive orders from the Rex. They have the power to make any Uruk they deem, pugged. They are also responsible for regularly organizing tournaments. They will also be responsible for ensuring the lower ranks are properly outfitted in preparation for battle.

 

- Warboss -

 

Appointed by the Rex or Targoths, there too may only be two at any single point in time. They are charged with bringing the lower runts into prominence through rigorous training routines and sparring sessions. They are also responsible for bringing wandering Uruks into the ranks and recruiting young Uruks formally into the Krughai. They will also be responsible for ensuring the lower ranks are properly outfitted in preparation for battle.

 

- Nob -

 

There may be three Nobs in total at any time. If a klomp for honor or merely simple sparring is declared within the arena, they are responsible for seeing it is conducted honorably and ensuring the matches do not turn deadly through spite or anger. They will also be responsible for ensuring the lower ranks are properly outfitted in preparation for battle.

 

 

Berzerker -

 

The Advanced Infantry of Orc Army. These are next in line to become Nobs. They are veterans of the Krughai.

 

Grunt-

 

The main bulk of the Krughai, most Uruks, Goblins or Ologs will spend a large portion of the time situated in this position. The beating heart of the Krughai and the collective force behind its triumphs, those that have exceptional performances on the battlefield will find themselves quickly rising past this rank.

 

Runt -

 

This is the introductory rank for Orcs. Runts are the smallest and weakest of the orcs, and typically the youngest or newest. They obey all who issue orders to them. They are the lowest of the low... they are Runts! But all orcs should remember that they all started as a runts themselves and help these very young orcs to mature to their next rank as quickly as possible.

 

Pug -

 

An orc who is made a pug must spend three days at this rank and must be active around the Iron Uzg during that time. He is reduced to wearing only leather, and he wields only a stick. He may be ordered to do any task (within reason) whilst a Pug and must complete that task as soon as possible. He can also be klomped at will by any orc in the Krughai take it without a complaint or protest. An orc made a Pug that cannot accept these conditions or fails to spend a suitable time in the Iron Uzg during his sentence, will have his time as a Pug extended or be Banished from the desert.

 

Disobeying orders, endangering brethren during a battle, refusing to adhere to the codes of honor or simply enraging one's superiors through idiotic action are all grounds to be pugged.

 

 

 

The Keshig

 

The Keshig is an elite warrior squadron of the Krughai reserved for those whom are the most capable and loyal. Their role and duty is to serve the Rex and the Rex alone. Whilst they maintain their clan names and status within their respective clans, they are no longer obligated to follow their clan Chief for they only person with the authority to command them is the Rex himself. The work as his personal guard unit and escort, accompanying him as his general entourage and complete secret missions that are often not revealed to the rest of the Iron Uzg. Being a Keshig is the highest honour a warrior can receive as he would have had to have proven himself to the Rex immensely before being granted the opportunity. As the Keshig are unique and loyal to the Rex, Rex's do not inherit the previous Orcs Keshig.

 

-Ranks-

 

Rex Kahn'Braduk

 

The supreme commander of the Iron Uzg and Keshig alike.

 

- Keshig Commander -

 

The field leader of the Keshig, the Keshig commander answers directly and only to the Rex. The most veteran of the unit, the commander is tasked with keeping the lower ranked members in line and trained, upholding discipline. The Keshig Commander has as much commanding authority to the Krughai as the Targoths do. Often being sent on classified tasks, the Keshig Commander is an Orc whos loyalty to the Rex is unquestionable, and is one of the few allowed into his inner chambers. 

 

- Keshig Nob -

 

Keshig Nobs have proven themselves capable and act as lieutenants to the Keshig Commander. There main duty is carrying out the orders of the Commander and leading squads of Grunts during the tasks given to the unit. There may only be three Keshig Nobs at a time, and it is decided not purely based on strength, but tactical and strategic merit as well.  

 

- Keshig Grunt -

 

The main elite fighting force of the Keshig, the Grunts are no Grunts, they are some of the most tested and battle hardened Orcs in the whole Iron Uzg. The backbone of the unit, the Grunts follow orders from the Rex and the superiors in the Keshig and no one else.
