Karazaz (pronounced kah-rah-ZAZ) is a large town within the Western Coast. The town was settled by orcish descendants of Viridian janissaries who left Hkarzda upon the outbreak of hostilities in Y9932*, though they have since been joined by a handful of settlers from elsewhere. By and large the orcs of Karazaz have continued the clan social structure that is followed by the Hkarzdan and Druzdan orcs, though they are careful to not allow any feuds to escalate, lest they fall to the same fate as modern Hkarzda.
The town is located within the Qutai Plains, roughly 45 miles from the coast. With little easily accessible wood for building, many of the buildings of the town are semi-subterranean sod houses. Though originally built in this style as a result of resource shortages, these structures have proven durable against the tornadoes that strike the plains every summer.
