Orc Shaman
A shaman wears the feathered mantle and uses the fetish staff of the clan's last shaman, and the clan treats its word about a hunt as settled. It keeps the names of the dead and the terms of every debt the clan holds. In a fight it stands behind the line, curses the enemies the warriors are fighting and strengthens the warriors. A clan that loses its shaman stops fighting and goes looking for the body.
