Bloody Claw Warband

The Orcs of the Bloody Claw have long been the scourge of the Eastern Reaches, as their raiding parties into the area are frequent and violent. Most of the warband lives in the dark and tangled trees of Dreadwood, although several small settlements on the plains to the west have been reported. The orcs are led by a massive black orc, Varbag Moonlover. Varbag's frequent rituals in the deep forest on nights of the full moon are stories used to frighten small children. It is rumored that none who have ever accompanied the leader on these forays has ever returned.
