We Are Orc
Welcome brothers and sisters to a roleplay involving the mighty orc. They are in that horrid stronghold being treated like cattle, and we must go out to free out brethren!
OK, it starts as the nomadic orc make their way into this ominous stronghold to rescue the slaves that rested inside. Players are either the orc rescuers or the slaves that get picked up. When the players are united (which should be soon) everyone would head out back to the homeland of the orc, going over treacherous terrian, hidious swamps, forests with dangerous creatures, and the threat of the angry enemy following behind. Everyone the map of the region is here as a guide of where we are and where we're going. This thread is available for any questions, concerns, and OOC planning. A link to the IC if you stumbled on this while looking for the OOC thread of your favourite roleplay.

Name: Kol Ratstomper
Description: Kol is tall for an orc, or would be if he stood up straight. Whipcord thin and possessing that leathery toughness that some people are fortunate enough to possess, Kol is a scout by preferance. Sneaky, clever, and sharp-eyed, he has eschewed the traditional battleawe for a collection of knives and other small weapons and a compact-yet-powerful crossbow, the kind intended for cavalrymen who don't have the space to use a full-sized one. He wears leather made from bear skin, and has a cloak-like thing made from woven reeds with tufts of grass and other plants tied on with string which he wears to help blend in with his surroundings. Personality: Kol is mean, and capable of suprisingly ingenuitive cruelties. He fights not as much to free his kind as to take the humans down a peg.

The character sheet wasn't needed, but ok, your in. Meh, where is everyone else, I could have sworn that the roleplay attracted more interest than this.

If you still need people, I'd like to join in. Sounds kind of like you're expecting some people, though, so I don't want to barge in if you are.

Your doing fine Sid. Nice to see you join.
Now, for everyone else: should the two on rescue side start coming in, or should we wait for more people to join?

I had a character idea that I thought might be appropriate, but only if goblins are considered close cousins of the Orcs. This is heavily based upon the Warhammer universe, commandeered for personal use. Read my post and tell me what you think, for ease or reference, I've also included a small character bio.
If not, I was also thinking that I could play one of the human jailers, eventually chasing the freed orcs as they make their way home. Or, if not that either, I suppose I could also just be an orc...*shrug* Name: Snikrot the Magnificent (though more commonly known as Snikrot the Yellow) Description: Snikrot is a typical tribal goblin, short, wiry, with long gangly, green limbs and large pointed features. As indicative of his chosen profession he is usually seen swathed in dirty robes of rags and hide, dangling from the leather harness strapped to his skinny torso are all sorts of moldy ingredients, fetishes, totems, and other nasty bits. He shakes his short spear, adorned with more feathers, talismans, and even nastier critter bits. Arranged around him are a quintet of puffy, fleshy red spheres. Snikrot lets out a shrill cry and pokes at the spheres, waking the Squigs from their slumber, bead little eyes blink open, and massive, gaping maws split the spherical creatures nearly in two as they yawn and snap in irritation, crammed full of large, yellow fangs. Stubby, but powerful legs lift them off the ground as they bound and bounce forwards at Snikrots insistence. History: Snikrot is a conflicted creature, who isn't even aware of the conflict. On one hand, he is likely the most arrogant and self-confident Goblin to be born since Digit the Squishy. He has dreams of being a great warlord of greenskins, overshadowing all the old Orcish heroes and fables. On the other hand, true to his nature, he is a cowardly, skittish, and weak willed creature. Shifting quickly between bombastic and stubborn boasts and sniveling posturing, if not for Snikrots inexplicable talents his irrational and irritating personality would likely have gotten him crushed, eaten, or both long ago. But as it were, by the fickle hand of fate or luck, Snikrot was given the gifts he needed to not only survive in the harsh world around him, but perhaps even see his vision through, at least, until something even more nasty than he comes along to gobble him up. In a brilliant moment of instinct, the young goblin found he possessed a measure of shamanistic talent, and in another blinding moment chance and insight he came upon a small herd of sleeping Squigs. Grinning with malicious cunning he approached the sleeping beasts, calling upon the favor of the spirits he plunged his spear into the exposed eye of the largest Squig. Stabbing it again and again he virtually liquefied the beasts small brain, and woke the rest of the pack up. Seeing their alpha killed by the tiny goblin gave the creatures pause. Quickly using his magiks to cow their confused and primitive minds before they decided to bite something vital out of him, he was able to force their obedience and recognition of his leadership. Enforcing their obedience through violence, magic, and a steady supply of fresh meat, Snikrot roamed the wilderness with his new pets until he had his third and final moment of providence. He still needed some Orcs, and there were plenty of Orcs in that big walled prison to the south. Grinning from ear to ear, Snikrot made his way south with the intention of storming the human camp, killing all the guards, and leading all the prisoners who obviously would want to follow him out of gratitude and in recognition of his obvious greatness.

Personally, I just want to know.. what the heck is a squig? I'm picturing squirrel-pigs. Pork with giant bushy tails.
Also, I noticed you went ahead and posted on the IC board. Just saying, but shouldn't you wait to see if you're accepted, especially since you aren't playing an Orc?? Last question, for Mikodite: Who is playing the humans? Are they NPCs?
