Orc Grunt Swarm's Character Notes
- Battle Tactics
- This is a Horde style NPC so it is considered 1 single NPC even though it consists of 10-12 orcs. As far as tactics go they don't really use much. They just charge in and do as much damage as possible as fast as they can. If a single PC is giving them a lot of trouble they may focus on them but other than that they are chaotic, not very smart combatants.

- Orc Swarm Use
- Use as one of many different Orc Grunt Swarms. They can serve as the first wave of an army or raid. Since each NPC counts as 1 but represents 10, you can easily use these to attack the PCs with "50 orcs" without having to actually control 50 individual NPCs, instead just 5. This is easier, faster, and better way to handle mass combat. Even though there are "10 per" they are only Grunt NPCs so they die easily. This can be part of a great Encounter where the PCs just mow through bad guys.

- Good Random Encounter
- These Orc Grunt Swarms can be used as random encounters. They can easily make up a patrol, small raiding party, or other group that the PCs can just happen upon. Toss in a giant as a leader and you are good to go. Though one isn't needed to use them.

- Dumb and Easily Manipulated
- These orc swarms are not made up of the smarted of the orcs, which is saying a lot. So if the PCs see them before they are spotted they can easily draw them into traps. They are easy to scout because they are loud and not real observant. Even in battle they can be goaded into acting how the PC might want them too.

NPC Auto Assigned Bonuses
Atomic RPG auto generated NPC Bonuses represent normal gear, items, and coolness of a NPC. With these mods regular items don’t need to be added. These can also represent tough hide, sharp teeth, and other natural strengths of a NPC animal or monster. If you want to equip the NPC with specific gear you can, but they are not needed. Character Items should be equivalent to these to keep this character balanced. If many items with bonuses are added consider removing Auto Assigned Bonuses from the NPC. This can be done in Edit Level > Base NPC.

Power Error Note: It is OK if an NPC has errors on their Powers. NPC’s can have a mix of Powers. However, if there are more Powers with errors then don’t have errors; GMs should consider adjusting the NPC. The Archetype, Focus, or Traits should be changed to better suit the Powers they have.
