| Role-Only--Replace-Rez-Power--Description = When some Orc's are killed, they do not just lie down and take it. Instead, they leave the world in a frenzy of hacking hatred, as cruel in death as they were in life. An Orc that has activated Deathmarch continues to fight for one round after its hit points are reduced to zero or below. During this round it ignores all conditions, is Immune to all further damage (since it's already dead), and acts normally in all ways, but it then dies immediately at the end of its turn.  Orc's in a Deathmarch typically attack with all their ferocity, gaining a +2 Circumstance bonus to all their to-hit's and Save DC's, and adding {{Hit-Dice|n=2|op=div}} points of damage to all damage rolls, of the same type of damage as the base attack inflicts.
 
Detecting the fact that Orc's Deathmarch has activated takes a [[Naturalism]] or [[Knowledge (Local)]] check with an [[Skill DC|Average]] DC of {{Skill-DC|Average}}, or a [[Perception]] or [[Heal]] check with a [[Skill DC|Hard]] DC of {{Skill-DC|Hard}}. Failing the roll informs the player only that the Orc is Bloodied.

Special Abilities

Warrior's Surge (Su) Free Action

Once per encounter, after performing a melee attack (hit or miss), an Orc Warrior may choose to heal itself for 28 hit points as a free action.

Bloody Fury (Ex) Free Action

Once per encounter, after using Warrior's Surge, if the Orc Warrior takes additional damage from any source, they may make one Scimitar attack as a free action against the creature that damaged them. This free attack can be made at any time after the Warrior's Surge ability is triggered.

Orc Warrior

Orc Warrior

Orc Warriors are the backbone of the orc tribes' savage strength. Orc Warriors are the most common orcs seen in orc-controlled lands. Orc Warriors guard the villages, patrol the hunting grounds, hunt and forage, and of course, go to war.

Orc Warriors are ruthless and fearless fighters who will happily fight to the death if it means they get one last attack on their enemies.

Combat Tactics

Orc Warriors are dangerous foes. They will throw axes to soften up their opponents and then charge into melee. As they take damage, they will use Warrior's Surge to stay on their feet, and after that, they will use Bloody Fury to make sure that whoever damages them next remembers their anger.

Orc Warriors are fearless and savage fighters and will fight to the death without hesitation.

Out of Combat

Orc warriors are the 'rank and file' of the Orc Way. Most orc warriors are former raiders that have 'made their chops', but a large minority of Orc Warriors are given their might by some act of providence, being born superior, or having connections, or by having some skill that has earned them special training, weapons, and status. No matter how they came to be Warriors, they are all quite pleased by their good fortune, and they are jealous of their place. Orc Warriors, oddly enough, often go raiding. But they tend to spend more of their time in the great orc camps, doing all the 'routine things' that make Orc culture go. Warriors make weapons and armor, have baby Orcs, keep house, build buildings and fortifications (crudely but quickly), and run coffles of the slaves that are tasked with the most menial of duties.
