The StoneFang Clan is one of the three major orc tribes in southern Nyvara, but they stand apart from the others in one crucial way: ingenuity. Unlike the fiercely brutal ForgeClaw Clan or the savage Pitborn Clan, the Stonefangs are known for their creativity and resourcefulness. They are the wealthiest of the three clans, thanks to the lush cave systems beneath their stronghold, which provide them with abundant water, minerals, and other resources.

The StoneFangs have a deep history of warfare, especially with the ForgeClaw and Pitborn clans. Their city was founded by orcs who fled the relentless wrath of the ForgeClaw, and their story is one of survival through cunning.

The legend goes that when the StoneFang orcs were pushed to the brink by the ForgeClaw, they sought refuge in a hidden pit. In their most desperate hour, with no food or water and nowhere to turn, the StoneFangs continued digging, hoping to uncover something — anything — that might save them. And just when all hope seemed lost, their efforts broke through to a vast, lush cave system beneath the earth. This underground paradise gave them the resources they needed to rebuild and thrive.

As they emerged from their refuge, the Stonefang orcs found the surface above abandoned — the once-feared ForgeClaw had mysteriously vanished, leaving nothing but skeletons behind. From that moment, the Stonefangs founded their clan around the pit that had saved them, believing it to be a divine blessing. To this day, the pit remains the heart of their culture, providing them with all their necessities: food, water, and precious minerals.

While they are no strangers to battle, the Stonefangs value ingenuity above all else, often relying on crafted tools and strategic thinking to outwit their enemies. Their people have a deep respect for the land they live on, and the cave system beneath their feet is considered a sacred source of life.
