The Orcish Raiders

The race of orcs are a warlike people who spend most of their time in underground caves. However they do come out onto the surface, where they are at best tolerated, for orcs are famous for attacking travellers, settlements, and even cities with little to no provocation. While not every orc is such an opportunistic rogue, just about every orc has learned, formally or otherwise, the basic principles of combat used in raiding parties.

The Orc race
General description:
  Orc is a race of large, usually green-skinned humanoids with misshapen
  bodies, elongated arms and twisted legs. They have a short lifespan
  and aren't bright. Their main reason to live is to collect earthly
  possessions. It is thought that orcs are warped elves but no one is
  sure who did warp them and why. There are rumors of few orcs who have
  picked up the unusual career of adventuring but to date these rumors
  have not been verified. If the adventuring orc exists he has to
  overcome both his physical hindrances and the prejudices of the World.
