In Ogmos, the Zagroks (also known as “Orcs”) traditionally worship a whole pantheon of deities, each having their own dedicated priesthood. One of those deities is Zundag, the sun god (his name can literally be translated as “twilight-dawn” in the common Zagrok tongue). Members of Zundag priesthood are also known as “Sun-Callers”. In some myths, he’s credited as the one giving strength to the Zagrok. Those myths may be partially true, as the Zagroks seem to absorb solar energy (similar to plant’s photosynthesis, if you wish), giving them a boost of energy. This might explain why they tend to have a green skin, as well as their habitus of wearing revealing clothes during sunny days.
The character depicted here is a Sun-Caller initiate called Daggar (meaning “Dawn-Sight”). Son of the High Sun-Caller (the highest rank among the Sun-Caller) of his city-state, he hopes to one day walk in his father’s footsteps. As much as he has good intentions at heart, he may come off as a bit full of himself at times. Hence why some of his acquaintances have given him the snarky nickname “big head”, much to his dismay.
