Lugar as mentioned is a half orc;. His nemesis is two fold. A half elf fellow academy student and a necromancer of mediocre power satisfied with tormenting the half orc who prefers creature comforts to smashing anything that moves. This world has a different view of Orcs. These machines of war truly are menacing. Trolls would rather run than fight them. My expectation is to find players invading the lands in one of the future novels. This is the perfect LITRPG story.
