#932, "Money - Mouth - Orcs"


          

Okay, I tried to follow Neps form for voker's, but some of this is disjointed a bit more than I'd like. That, and orcs suck.

_________________________________________________________________

The BERSERKER is orc of fearful physical power. Specializing in raw (ENHANCED DAMAGE) brute (BERSERK) force (WARSHOUT), this creature MARCHES a path of obliteration and devastation across the land. Eventually an orc can become CHIEFTAN of the orc tribe, gaining support (ASSEMBLE HORDE), TRIBUTE, and the power to rule all other orcs.

Strengths of the berserker class include:

# Berserks gain abilities, such as WAR BANNER, which not only strike fear into their enemies, but inspire the orc to even greater acts of savagery (SAVAGE FEEDING) than ever before. Relying on physical strength first second and third, an orc will OVERRUN the unprepared with the sheer might of their blows.
# The berserker's ability to crush (CRUSHING BLOW) their opponents into the dirt and BASH them to the ground makes them masters of punishing opponents and keeping them in one place for their blows to land. They can take this advantage even further by PINing their foes to the ground, or kicking them when they are down (CHEAP SHOT). No opportunity to exploit a weakness goes unmissed when a berserker is on the warpath.
# Where other classes rely on finesse or intelligence, the orcs ADAPTS to further strengthen their fearsome abilities. No other adventurer can as effectively DEMORALIZE their opponent as an orc, and their ability to keep an adversary from executing their strategies is key to their success. They possess greater ability to incite "command denial" (THIS NEEDS A HELPFILE) than any other.
# An orcs TOUGHNESS helps to make them the most durable and fastest recovering creature alive. They can even heal by drinking the blood (EXSANGUINATE) of the hated elves to recover faster. SCAVAGING and brutal nothing takes a beating and keeps on going like an orc.
# Orcs are inherently cowardly creatures though, willing to HIDE and wait for opportunities, or FALLBACK behind allies so as to avoid punishment. They can even ENSLAVE their kin to further shield themselves from harm. This penchant for cowardice keeps them alive and searching for the weak to prey upon.

Of course the cunning berserker also must account for those areas which they do excel at:

# While the berserker is nearly unmatched in offensive power, their ability to defend themselves is highly dependent on their ability PARRY the weapons of an opponent or DODGE their blows. While this orc is willing to trade pain on themselves for damage to their victim, even they run out of health eventually.
# The cunning, vile, orcs have few allies, and will be hunted by the FORTRESS OF LIGHT, OUTLANDERS OF THAR-ERIS, and even fellow orcs in the fierce competition to rise to the top of GRINNING SKULL.
# Orcs thrive on striking at the opportune moment, so they might find themselves outmatched by a prepared foe, or surprised by those who can avoid their vision.
