Orcorim

There are many varieties of orcs depending on the shadows.

The main body of orc kind.

Goblins

This version of Orcs is not the same as the Kobold/Goblin races. This is a smaller version of orc with a variety differences fomr the stock of warlike orc. Orcorim goblins tend to be more mechanically inclined, perhaps smarter then military orcs. Goblins often are craftsman for the other orcish races. .

Fey

Fey refers to a vast number of races under a general umbrella of somewhat magical races having connections to nature and the realms of their origin.

Various shadows would have dynamically different fey sub-races but some are essentially ubiquitous. Leprechauns, Faries, gnomes (Nature Oriented). In many realms Elves are classified as Fey and conversely in many realms Fey are considered elven races. The specificity of the difference depends on the shadow under consideration.
