Orc-like

An orclike race from *country name*

Appearance
The orclikes are humanoids with a blue- or purple-ish skin tone. Their height is similar to that of humans but have somewhat muscular builds and tough skin. They have large pointed ears and several horns and spikes protrude from their face in various shapes and sizes. They can take animalistic shapes like a ram or cow horns but also grow horns not seen anywhere else in nature.

Most notably are the markings each orc-like gains at a young age. Around age six each orclike traditionally goes through a series of tests. When completed the orclike will no longer be treated as a kid but as a functioning member of society. A few days after completing the test the orclike will be marked all over their body either by scarring or tattoos. The markings are usually made with the mother and fathers marking style in mind. Orclikes can recognize most of their kins heritage just by their markings.
