Mor-Gath is the collective memory of every Orc who has died since the world was pinned. She is often depicted as a hooded figure draped in thousands of finger-bones.
- What she represents: History, lineage, and the "Blood-Chain."
- The Ritual: Mixing the ashes of a fallen Chieftain with white clay to paint the faces of the young.
- Orcish Saying: "The Matriarch walks behind us; do not let her see you stumble."
