The Krughai

 

The formal hierarchy and social ladder of the Warnation, every Uruk, Goblin and Olog is apart 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 its ranks.

 

- Ranks -

 

REX Gilgamesh Han Urruk Braddukk

 

The Supreme Commander of the Warnation 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. A Warboss may choose warriors for their warband and raid accordingly.

- NOB -

 

The Advanced Infantry of Orc Army. These are next in line to become Warbosses. 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 a minimum of three days at this rank and must be active around the Warnation 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, taking it without  complaint or protest. A Pugged Orc that cannot accept these conditions or fails to spend a suitable time in the Warnation during his sentence, will have his time as a Pug extended or face banishment.

 

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. Only the Rex, Dominus and Targoth(s) may Pug.

 

 

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. They 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 Warnation. 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.

REX Gilgamesh Han Urruk Braddukk

 

The supreme commander of the Warnation and Keshig alike.

 

- KESHIGBOSS  -

 

The field leader of the Keshig, the Keshigboss answers directly and only to the Rex. The most veteran of the unit, he is tasked with keeping the lower ranked members in line and trained and upholding discipline. The Keshigboss has as much commanding authority to the Krughai as the Targoths do.

- KESHIG NOB -

 

Keshig Nobs have proven themselves capable and act as lieutenants to the Keshigboss. Their main duty is carrying out the orders of their 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 Warnation. The backbone of the unit, the Grunts follow orders from the Rex and the superiors in the Keshig and no one else.
