Oridan

Oridan is the capital of the gnolls in Western Bleakstare Forest. It is located deep in the woods and was never bothered before the coming of orcs in the first age.

During the colonisation of Northridge by Allthond Orcs the Warhunger Clan had long wars with the gnolls of Oridan. But eventually the wars stopped and the two races made peace.

In the second age Oridan was attacked by Black Orks, but it stood against the small Black Orkish army. And their brethren in the east had been captured and tormented. This was the reason why the gnolls of Western Bleakstare Forest allied the Northleger.
