The Primary benefit of the Flaming Ax is the teaching of
The Capilar.
This gives the Orc the ability to strike with his natural claws and harm those things which cannot be harmed except with magic. It is an ancient teaching that can only be learned through special meditative techniques. In order to be able to use it the Orc must first meditate undisturbed for one minute. This means no talking, movement of interaction magically, spiritually, mentally or physically during this meditative time. At the end of this meditation the Orc can strike and harm those protected entities for as long as his will holds.
(In game mechanics this means the Orc must lose one full round of action and then may strike a creature that needs magic to hit, while using only his own unarmed attack. The time this lasts is a number of rounds equal to his Wisdom score.
A Master of The Capilar must teach this ability. The Masters never journey outside of the heart of Ruch. It will take 16 weeks minus the Intelligence score of the student to learn The Capilar (minimum though of three weeks). It also takes a Weapon Proficiency slot to learn the Capilar. The maximum magical plus that can be hit is equal to the number of Weapon Proficiency slots put into The Capilar plus any clerical magic pluses gained through priest spells.)
Another Benefit of the Flaming Ax Guild is that skilled individuals will teach you other weapon and non-weapon proficiencies as you are able to learn them. These teachers will meet with you at any prearranged site within Ruch and only need be paid with shelter and sustenance and any cost needed to learn the skill. They will never charge you for their teaching skill or time.
All members of the Flaming Ax can send word into Ruch and given time will be able to call on a war party of 5 to 30 orc warriors to come to their aid. This should not be done without true need and a way to compensate the warriors. They will expect you to feed and shelter them and will take their share of any booty. The warriors are mercenaries and will not hesitate to take out payment in your and your companions hides if they are dissatisfied.
After you have proven yourself to be a true brother of the Flaming Ax,
the armorers and weapon makers of the guild can be commissioned to make
you a set of armor and a grunt ax. These are a great boon to the
orc as they are fairly rare. Only the most respected of Orcs are
given a grunt ax especially made for them and orcan armor is only usually
gained with killing another orc and taking his. The Flaming Ax tries
to stop the killing of Orc by Orc and so provides more armor for those
who can afford it and whom they respect.
