Two guilds to explore
Two guilds that suit this race’s attributes. Their skills and abilities develop as you train.
B'rogh fighter
Army of Vaerlon
Train with weapons, armour and battle manoeuvres. Army fighters can grow into forceful attackers or defenders who hold the line.
B'roghs are the biggest race in Icesus. They are tall and slim humanoid giants, who can become up to five meters tall. Their skin is an ochre or orange colour, which is the result of living in the hot deserts of Aegic. They have sharp, angled features with a flat nose and pointed ears. B'roghs have no beard and are often bald on the top of their head, but they let the hair growing from the back of their head grow to waist-length.
B'roghs nowadays live in villages of simple huts on the plains in Icesus, preferably near one of the volcanoes or in another similar warm spot. The b'rogh society is strictly clannish, with an intricate system of rulership passed from one clan to another in a cycle. No outsider has ever been able to research this system closer. Apart from their clans, b'rogh are somewhat simpleminded and have a singletracked mentality, but are much feared as warriors. They tend to keep to themselves and not join in other races' wars, unless forced to by the circumstances.
