Upon death, an orc or dromaar can engage in the Crucible, a posthumous duel to the death against a deity in which the winner becomes or remains a deity and the loser is effectively annihilated. Many deities in the orc pantheon were mortal orcs and dromaars who ascended through the Crucible, particularly following the death of Gorum in 4724 AR.
