Clan Iron'heartz

[Ofrider 153]

Jorg was frustrated, he had no home, he simply worked a mercenary, his people and idea passing to dust, what mark has he left besides for his deeds? This has to change, and he’ll deliver this change. Undertaking a new name, starts a new path for Orc kind that adapts to the change

 

                                                                                                                The blood of Jorg

 

Under a new clan, ment new blood of which was Jorgs. Orcs born into this tribe tend to be on the shorter side, never going past 7'2, sometimes even below 6'0, but despite their shortness are incredibly wide and stoutly built. They tend to be calmer and studious, taking to learning with ease, but they do have their negatives. They are shy and more prone to fits of sudden rage due to their natural enforced willpower when it fails. They stick to greenish hews and big lower jaws with mighty tusks. The hair Black in color with Red eyes with thick skin.

 

They hold intelligence, and skill at arms highly. Otherwise they view strength and willpower as attractive/respected. Men generally hold woman that have large appetites and plump/chubby figures as highly attractive, while men are seen more attractive for there skill and knowledge.

 

                                                                                                             Clan Culture

 

The clan believes in the spirits, in being a true orc, but thats where it stops. They don't go out raiding all the time like other clans. Instead, its about getting better, learning more, being someone. All Iron'heartz are expected to be knowledge on a subject, trained in fighting, and respect those of the clan name as family, even if not be blood. Honor is above all, to bring dis-honor is the worst crime one can commit within the clan. The clan isn't specifically lead by one Wargoth, a council leads with him/her, the council is made up of 8 individuals who hold great respect, skill, and smarts throughout the clan, and discuss things with the Wargoth, Wargoth has final claim however. Leading to a more diplomatic style of leadership. This changes when the council no longer see's fit for a wargoth to be in charge, and then another is elected. Replacing a member of the council requires an individual to be of great respect, to be voted by more then 1/2 the clan, then go through a test of skill against each other, generally a honor klomp/duel. Klomping is common for practice compared to settling issues, though, klomping to settle issues is still the standard or another test of skill. Discrepancies that can't be solved are brought to the council and Wargoths attention. This is rarer though, as members of the clan are to see each other as kin, or very close friends.

 

Not just orcs are allowed, Honorary orcs are also allowed in, instead of znagas, thoughs who want to join are takin in are giving a 'squireship' of sorts, learning from the member in question about orc culture until deemed proper by the council that they meet the requirements of being an honorary uruk. From there, more trials remain to become part of the clan. They are open to anyone joining if they show the resolve and strength to go through the trials deemed on them. Those outside of the clan are to be treated well, as members must be honorable and represent the clan at all times. Compared to other orc cultures, they are much more open and friendly.

 

However, they are still warlike, and go out of one's way to fight someone better in a friendly klomp is common. Raiding is less, but it can still happen, normally for supplies under one's enemies (I.E. enemies of Hanese) slaves are not taken, as that is dishonorable. Recruitment is driven through asking others, and others asking to learn. Those who are asked are generally viewed by one's being asked worthy of joining the clan, or a lover by chance, though, marring outside the clan is possible, but the kids must be tested before joining. As they were born outside of the clan. 

 

Men are well respected for skill, strength, intelligence, and knowledge, along with state of honor, how well crafted their armor is, and how well versed they are on combat. Woman are respected for the same thing, but also on how plump one is, the plumper the better, as that means stronger (According to the fighting style, see latter)

 

                                                                                              Codes of Honor

                                                           Besides for following (MOSTLY) the law of Haense besides for that, their strict code of honor which is 

 

1.No harm to woman nor children 

2. No lying, cheating, not stealing, those things are for lesser men and woman.

3. Don't let thoughts of greed lead you down a path of dishonor

4: Respect all, even those outside the clan, unless they are dishonorable or have proven their lack of honor

5. Be humble, there is always something, or someone better 

6: The spirits are the best, don't praise other gods outside of the spirits and ancestors.

7: You represent the clan, so your actions represent us, and insults towards your family, is also towards us, stand with family, and we will stand with you.

 

Breaking these codes will result in punishment be it tests, duties, exile, or even death within the clan. This is absolute

 

                                                                                       Joining the Clan

First, if one is not of orc nature, one must pass the trials of being honorary. This consists of being taught by members of the clan of being a 'squire' of sorts to another clan member who is mentor. They must be taught the ways of being true Uruk which includes.

1. How to speak properly in Blah

2. The culture, what its about

3. The spirits, and ancestors

4. How to fight, has to be ok, don't have to be the best, but at least must know how.

5. A test of resisting blood lust (to know uruk curse and to determine will power)

6. Trusted by the mentor, and others. Including various deeds.

Once approved by the council and/or Wargoth, they may continue on to joining the clan

 

1. To be properly honorable

2. To see the clan as family

3. To be skilled in an art or craft

4. To make their own set of armor to wear.

5. To be proficient in one weapon style (this can include archery as well)

Once completed, and approved and accepted by council and/or Wargoth, they are accepted as members of the clan.

 

                                                                                                          Combat

This begins to be taught during the initiation into the clan, so once they are accepted, they generally are well on their way into learning the secret styles of combat from the Clan its-self. If not, then they begin soon as they join.

For men, this begins with being taught how to use all different types of weapons in their armor, how to move better. mixing countless styles into one. They are generally instructed to take tasks with another member for glory, this is also training as they are showed knowledge and learn from their mistakes if they survive. From there, they are taught by multiple mentors on how to use different styles, and different ideas to implement into their art. This continues until they can make the art their own under their own choice of weapons.

 

For woman, this begins when they are thin, or are made to loss weight to show discipline for the style. As it is seen as beautiful and respected to have a plump figure within the clan, a combat style was made to make up for what others see as loss. After they are thin, or thinned, they are made to go hunting, in which they must fight beasts, or others, for food. They must eat everything they catch or gain in their fights, until they can't eat any more. This helps build muscle and speed, while building fat. Every three days, they can come back and break for a bit, but must keep up a large appetite. During the time period in town, they are taught how to use this in a special style which is a mix of sumo and weapon handling, giving superior skill and use of their increasing weight as they get stronger and fatter. The cycle continues until they are deemed fit enough to teach the style and use the style properly be Wargoth and/or Council. Despite the disadvantages of speed loss and bigger form, which could be hard to move around. They gain additional striking power, defense, and use of how to use their weight more to their advantage, and they are harder to move.
