Culture, Society & Daily Life
[Established Lore] What the game has always held to be true.
Culture
Daily Life
Orc life is practical. They build, they hunt, they fight and they eat. Orgrimmar is a city of forges and tents, and the Valley of Strength is full of soldiers. Not every orc is a warrior, but every orc knows the Horde's oath: for the Horde.
Honor
Honor matters. An orc who breaks an oath loses face, and an orc who keeps one is trusted. The orcs of the Barrens will tell you a person's word is their weapon. [Game · Quest: Eitrigg's Wisdom]
Ancestors and the Earth Mother
The orcs honor their ancestors and the Earth Mother. Shamans speak to the spirits, and elders pass on stories at the fire.
Food and Craft
Orcs cook what the land gives them. Cook Torka at Razor Hill is a good example. Torka wants prickly pear fruit from the Razormane Grounds. [New in Forever] [Game · Quest: This Fruit Could Bite Back]
