+IHELP: SARUMAN

"Saruman the White Wizard, the Lord of Isengard, the White Hand, Leader of the Fighting Uruk-Hai!"

These are words no Orc should ever mention. One of the most confusing and important issues centered around Isengard is the secert cave of Uruk-Hai below Angrenost. It is important for every Orc player in Isengard to realize that they are not from Isengard! What? Wait yes you are? But no one is suposed to know this. Why? The simple fact is that Saruman is still Saruman the White, and is considered to be one of the Good Guys. No one at this point in the game suspects Saruman of being anything other than a champion of the light, and head of the White Council.

The Orcs of Isengard call themselves the Fighting Uruk-Hai of the White Wolf Kingdom. Never do they speak the name Isengard outside the caves, and rarely do they mention it inside the caves. Those that slip up are slain without remorse or a second thought. The secret of Saruman's Uruk-Hai hordes is the best kept secret in Middle-earth.

So what do the Orcs call the White Wizard and what symbols do we use? Many suspect we use the White Hand, which is mentioned in the books and shown in the movies. This is also not true. The timeline hasn't advanced far enough along for that, and such a display may also give away Saruman's role as leader of the Uruk-Hai. So we use a White Wolf as the symbol of our alligance to Sharku. Who is Sharku you ask? Why that is the name in Orcish that the Uruk-Hai call Saruman, it means 'old man' and fits in well with his white hair and advanced lifespan. Some call him the White Wolf, Sharku, or Sharky, but never Saruman. These basic concepts of Saruman's secret caves of Uruk-Hai are the cornerstone to any RP we have outside the caves.
