Orc Veteran
Creature 1 — humanoid, orc
AnvilLANDhumanoidorc
Orc veterans have survived several bloody and chaotic conflicts, coming out the other side with scars and experience that make them even more dangerous opponents. Many orcs are forged in the fires of violence and conflict, often from the moment they're born. As they live lives that are frequently cut brutally short, orcs revel in testing their strength against worthy foes, whether by challenging a higher-ranking member of their community for dominance, taming a powerful beast, or slaying a fear
