Porcs are a race of barbaric humanoids, styled similarly to traditional orcs but with more porcine features. They digest their food via puking, making them fond of foods such as yogurt which are already in goo form. They reproduce asexually via a pit of acidic ooze, and therefore do not have a standard family such as grandfathers.
Porcs are large, mutated porcine humanoids. They were created by submerging a standard pig into a suspiciously bubbly purple liquid. The result of the submerging is a Porc. This origin causes them to not have any family, lineage, nor some common biology with other races, such as tear ducts.


Reportedly, porc culture does not allow for distinction between persons by race, only by strength. This was demonstrated during the [[Porc Hunters]] campaign when the leader of the porcs, [[Porbo]], was defeated and so replaced by the stronger [[Ca-Rell]].
Porcs can excrete this purple liquid from various orifices of their body, excluding their nipples, which, unlike standard porcs, is only a single pair. Their nipples can lactate from either male or female Porc. As this 'milk' is not used for breast feeding young, they often add it to their meals.

Most Porcs are very simple creatures, preferring to live in caves with their brethren under a strong leader.

They do this by emanating purple ooze from their eye sockets to emulate tears, or by creating their own relatives from fiction sources.

The Porcs that where under the command of [[Porbo]] lived in fear of their leader, to the point where they where not given names and simply existed to be beaten and ate by Porbo.

The diet of a Porc consists of eating their regurgitated bile. This causes them to prefer foods that are already similar in texture to their bile, such as Fish Yogurt or Fish Soup, which allows them to digest it without puking.

Description

Porcs are large, mutated porcine humanoids. They were created by submerging a standard pig into a suspiciously bubbly purple liquid. The result of the submerging is a Porc. This origin causes them to not have any family, lineage, nor some common biology with other races, such as tear ducts.

Porcs can excrete this purple liquid from various orifices of their body, excluding their nipples, which, unlike standard porcs, is only a single pair. Their nipples can lactate from either male or female Porc. As this 'milk' is not used for breast feeding young, they often add it to their meals.

It is currently unknown where the original source of the mysterious purple liquid, nor the length of time the Porcs have existed. The purple liquid appeared in an ancient temple in The Dingo Isles, which was built in an unknown point in time.

Porc Culture

Most Porcs are very simple creatures, preferring to live in caves with their brethren under a strong leader. They only differentiate people by their strength, not by the person's race, gender, etc. This allows them to follow under any leader, who is strong, without question. The Porcs also attempt to emulate other races to be accepted easier. They do this by emanating purple ooze from their eye sockets to emulate tears, or by creating their own relatives from fiction sources. This emulate may be why some Porcs regard Kobolds as lesser creatures.

They are very loyal to their leader and will do anything in their power to please them. The Porcs that where under the command of Porbo lived in fear of their leader, to the point where they where not given names and simply existed to be beaten and ate by Porbo. While they where loyal to Porbo, they happily went under the command of the Elven Captain Ca-Rell once she defeated Porbo.

Porc Leaders are regarded as extremely strong and capable decision makers, leaving any Porc under their command to eagerly await their orders. Porbo and Captain Merci are notable leaders of Porcs, leading their men in battle effectively. These leaders are also known to sleep for extended periods of time. Porbo slept in his own Porc pool, while Capt. Merci slept for thirteen days at sea.

The diet of a Porc consists of eating their regurgitated bile. This causes them to prefer foods that are already similar in texture to their bile, such as Fish Yogurt or Fish Soup, which allows them to digest it without puking.
