Horde Labor Camps - The Horde maintains hundreds of forced Labor camps throughout the world. The Camps are controlled directly by the military of the horde. The Religious factions within the Horde have been attempting to gain control of the camps for years but to no avail. The Labor Camps are filled with special prisoners or subjects who cannot pay their taxes. It should be noted that the inmates of the labor camps are not slaves. The inmates have lost the rights to be a slave, or Calton or subject to the Horde. The Horde deems them as soulless ones and as soulless ones do not deserve the rights of even a slave. Many of the prisoners have and will be used in weapon testing or sacrificed in a festival or ceremony. The Horde usually assigns an Orc or Goblin as Labor Master of the camp. The Labor camps will be positioned near a natural resource or a site designed to produce finished goods. There are several types of labor camps:

Land Harvesting Labor Camp
Procreation Camp
Production Labor Camp
Sea Harvesting Labor Camp
Training Labor Camp


Horde Land Harvesting Labor Camps
These camps are used to grow food from the surrounding area in great quantities for the horde or are used to harvest lumber from trees or ores from the ground. For those who work in the farming labor camps providing food for the horde every harvest festival is a time of pure horror. The Horde will take ten percent of the interned workers and sacrifice them to Ballan the God of Farmers.

Horde Procreation Camps
These camps are designed to create Half-Orc troops. Humans are the only known race that can be bread with the Horde. The interned slaves do not live long once they have served their purpose. If an inmate is unable to be bred, they are sacrificed at a Feast of the War Goddess.

Historical Note:
Even with the signing of the Dresden Accord (TK 1044) that officially ended the Fourth War with the Horde, Procreation Camps still exist. This is a major point of contention with many nations and cultures on Alquennas.

Horde Production Labor Camps
These camps will be filled with inmates with special abilities or skills in producing finished or parts of finished goods that the Horde desires.

If an inmate has been discovered with knowledge of designing or creating unusual compounds or finished goods then the Horde Labor Master of that camp will question the inmate. The inmate is usually killed during the questioning. If the inmate freely gives the knowledge that he/she knows, the Horde will inform the rest of the camp that they have done so and then transferred to another labor camp, usually to a training labor camp. The Horde Labor Master will inform the camp that the inmate has been elevated to the position of one that serves the Horde in an attempt to have others come forward and provide information to the Horde.

One of the most common types of Production Labor Camps is called currency converter camps. The Horde uses these inmates to convert captured coins from the area (usually a recently annexed land) and turn them into Horde currency (see Currency of the Horde). Once all of the coinage has been converted to Horde currency are then sacrificed to Athendran the goddess of Wealth.

Horde Sea Harvesting Labor Camps
Inmates with abilities and skills of the sea will be sent to Sea Harvesting Labor Camps. Mostly the inmates are used to clean ships, clean the daily catches, prepare the fertilizer mounds (from the remains of the day's catch) and are used to retrieve nets in shark-infested waters. At the end of the season, ¼ to ½ of the population of the labor camp is sacrificed to Orcashan God of the seas and oceans.

If an inmate has been discovered with knowledge of designing water-going vessels they will be provided with two days of good meals and then questioned about their techniques in building ships. The inmate is usually killed during the questioning. If the inmate freely gives the knowledge that he/she knows, the horde will inform the rest of the camp that they have done so and then transferred to another labor camp, usually to a training labor camp. The horde Labor Master will inform the camp that the inmate has been elevated to the position of one that serves the horde in an attempt to have others come forward and provide information to the horde.

Horde Training Labor Camps
These camps are designed to help train Horde troops. The creatures that are interned in these camps are used as living targets and prey for the Horde. Some of these creatures will be given basic weapons training to be used in advanced training of horde troops. There has been on rare occasions that prisoners who are hard to kill in the advanced training are offered a choice between becoming a handler of prisoners or sacrificed to Arrondar the God of Warriors.
