In the beginning all the first races appeared on this world The First races included the Giants, Elves, Humans, and Goblins. Each race chose an area of the world to call their own. All were at peace then came the time of darkness and the Races began to fight with one and other and with them selves as the wars wore on some of races began to fragment into the First born. The first born of the Goblins included Orcs and Hobgoblins and goblins.

All of the first born where pleasant to look upon but the goblin kind were losing to giantkin being forced in to less and less pleasant surroundings so the Orcs devised a plan to create the ultimate fighters. The first half orcs the Blacks and Whites. They mighty mages of the orcs knew that they would only be able to do one such casting so they gathered 3000 volunteers half male and half female. When the spell casting was complete to their surprise for each of the volunteers had changed into three Beings. The orc who turned green and gained surprising strength and cunning. A black half orc talented beyond belief in weapon skills and a White half orc talented beyond belief in channeling magic. As the casters stared in amazement at what they had done the Half Orcs gathered together and using their newly found powers departed. The orc volunteers in the madness of transformation and losing part of them selves killed all the casters and proceeded to kill all the first born orcs until only the transformed remained. As the years passed they blamed the Half orcs for their predicament and because of their strength the other Goblinoid races believed them. As the generations passed the goblinoid races became more and more diverse much more so than the other races because of their shorter life spans. Until the goblinoid races of today where known, some of the goblinoid races that appeared are the misnamed half orcs, offspring of mating that occurred with orcs, humans and elves. Enough of them have been born before the current count of time that they have become their own species and surprisingly enough they breed true. Of the True half orcs very little is known except that they are always seen in pairs one white and one black. Apparently a white half orc must mate with a black half orc and this mating always results in the birth of twins one black and one white they either are both female or both male. When they mate one set of twins usually marries another set of twins.

As told by the Current Clan Shaman

When the great mages strove to make the ultimate fighters our forefathers saw the inherent danger in messing with the spirit of our race. So we fled in fear into the waste where we met our brethren the barbarian horde. We were made welcome as members of the firstborn and made members of their clans since then they have been our brethren our brothers and sisters our mothers and fathers but we have remembered that time and will not go against their customs. For we are no longer the first born or orcs we are the half orcs we now have our own clans and tribes.

Our clan was started when the great horde grew so large that it was decided by the leaders to divide the clans up smaller and each clan would chose a section of the herd lands to be their own. And so for many moons the discussions of which families would travel together went on and on eventually it was decided that the head of each family would choose a totem animal and all families that choose the same totem animal would travel together. All present saw how wise this was and so it was agreed. At the next full moon the heads of each family came forward and told their choice by the end of the night all the clans were named.

The largest clan was Dragon.
Then came Wolf, Bear, Hawk, and Griffin.
Then came Raven, Unicorn, Snow Leopard, and Tiger
And the smallest clan was Snow Rabbit.

And it was determined that the Dragon clan was to large to be a single clan so they each went off and were told to pick a color of drake and so the Dragon clan was broken down into red fire, blue water, green forest, white ice and black night.

And so the first clans were named and every four years the clans come together for the great moot at Mount Dragon where the first clans where named since that time other clans have emerged. Including Fox, Elk, and Eagle.

But we were talking of our clan the Bear Clan much to the surprise of the leaders most of the half orcs in the horde ended up in three clans the Red Dragons the Raven and our clan the Bear. Now as you look around you see that there are still humans among us but most of us are half orcs. The same is not true of the other two clans the raven clan is mostly human and the Red Dragons are almost half-and-half. Which is why we of all the clans have a few celestial casters they are long oddly upon by the other clans even by the humans among us. But they are tolerated because of the weapons of power and enchanted armors they make for us they and we sell and trade to the other clans. Now that you have heard our history each you must remember it so it will never be forgotten.
