Juuroku Ko

Juuroku Ko (─) is one of the High Orcs living in Tempest, belonging to the Lake Tribe. He works as a Farmer, managing his wheat field with his wife and son from morning to night.

Appearance
In addition to the coat of fur and pig-like head typical of Orcs, Juuroku also possesses webbed feet, lizard scales, and other adaptations that make him well equipped to work in various different environments.

Personality
A simple and earnest person, Juuroku is content with devoting his entire life to farming. He is extremely loyal to Rimuru, feeling that he owes at least as much effort as he puts in farming to them in return for the mercy Rimuru showed his fellow Orcs.

Background
Originally an Orc living in the Orc Kingdom of Orbic, Juuroku was one of the thousands of Orcs under the command of the Orc Lord Geld. He belonged to the Lake Tribe and was among the Main Force of the orcish horde that didn't get to participate in battle.

After the defeat of Geld, Juuroku, like the rest of his Orc brethren, was granted a name and accepted into the Jura-Tempest Federation. He evolved into a High Orc in the process and was assigned to work a wheat field alongside his wife and son.
