Haruchai are an aggressive race of robust, close-knit humanoids related to orcs, who in various ways rule over an area in central Asia that is nearly the size of Europe. Locally, they are known by many names: Oirot, Kuan Chu, Jagatai, Tatars, Mongols or Manchu. In some parts, most notably along the northern fringe of the Gobi Desert, they are tribal and resentful of other peoples; but in vast regions they act as a noble class, ruling over cavewights, orcs and ogres. They possess wide and sharp, hatchet-shaped facial features; as shown, they favour growing out their long, straight hair. Their lower teeth grow throughout their lifetimes, so that those with four or more teeth protruding above their upper lips are generally older and more experienced.
