The gods of the orcs believe that it is the ultimate destiny of the orcish
race to destroy the other races, and gain ultimate dominance over all of Annwn.
As such, the majority of orcish deities are concerned with combat and
warfare to the exclusion of all else. Thier typical spheres of influence
include strength, swordsmanship, military prowess, night, death, fertility,
and hunting, all of which are important to the spread of the orcish race.
All orcish deities also hold a particular hatred of the elven deities
and their followers, their immortal enemies. The orcish pantheon is
rigidly organized under the control of Gruumsh, the chief deity of the orcs.
