Our Orcs Are Different	comment	Orcs. Ever since Tolkien, the worlds of fantasy literature and video games have been overrun with gangs of these ugly, bellicose humanoids, whose main purpose in life is to serve as Mooks for the Forces of Evil. Trolls, goblins and/or hobgoblins are usually closely associated with them, or may just be different names for the same thing. The word orc comes from Old English and shares linguistic roots with the word ogre. Both are related to the Latin word Orcus, the name of an Etruscan/Roman god of The Underworld which came to denote the place itself (like Greek Hades). Later, Orcus was glossed as a term for a demon or hell itself. Thus, the Old English word orc, as attested by medieval glossaries — as well as cognates in other languages like French ogre, Italian orco and Portuguese and Spanish ogro — denoted a kind of demon or monster. However, the only appearance of orc in surviving Old English literature comes from Beowulf in the form orcnÃ©as, "demon-corpses", sometimes translated as "living dead" — ghouls, perhaps? OrcnÃ©as are said to be evil creatures descended from Cain, together with eotenas (giants), ylfe (elves) and gigantas (giants, again, so eotenas is sometimes translated as ogres or trolls). note Confusingly, a homonym of orc also exists in Old English with the meaning of "cup" or some other sort of "vessel", with the plural orcas appearing in Beowulf. This is also derived from Latin, but is completely unrelated to Orcus since it comes from urceus, much later orca — which itself has a homonym meaning "whale", hence killer whales are called orcas. In modern fiction, Orcs come in two general flavors: the original model developed by J. R. R. Tolkien who borrowed the word from Beowulf and used it for his version of goblins, and a revisionist model best exemplified (but far from invented) by Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft series. There are also orcs IN SPACE!!!

It tells a fantasy story in which a unit of Orc grunts are the protagonists, participating in a war in which they have no investment and fighting for a leader they don't believe in — their own commanders simply transferred their contracts to the Evil Overlord (actually an Evil Overlady). Unsurprisingly, they decide to Screw Destiny and stop being faceless mooks.

They're explicitly darkness-aligned and willing to do the ravaging horde routine, and are pretty much always at odds with the light races of humans, elves, and dwarves; but they have a culture based on honor and clan allegiance, with an animistic religion.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_14ccdacd	comment	Xenoblade Chronicles X: The Prone are essentially Space Orcs — their skin colors include pink and purple rather than green, and they have tentacles hanging off their faces, but aside from appearance they are essentially Blizzard orcs. They come in the Cavern and Tree Clan varieties, and tend to have aspects of both Tolkien and Blizzard orcs, usually depending on how likely they are to shoot you. Meanwhile, the Marnucks, being one of the primary Mook races (alongside the Prone) for the Ganglion, are essentially Tolkien orcs, aside from their blue skin, being reptilian, preference for guns, and having invented their own military technology. What little we know about the Marnucks is that they don't just love war; their chief deity is their god of death, and they think killing people in battle is an honorable act. Their homeworld was destroyed by a global civil war, and the only ones left are the ones that sided with the Ganglion.

To elaborate, Orcs can build Universities whose students help in the player wizard's research, Alchemists' Guilds to produce magical weapons for the troops, War Colleges to produce Elite Mook squads, Merchants' Guilds, and Engineers. They seem to be a blend of Tolkien and Blizzard varieties, though they predate the latter; they're as strong as humans and have civilization and engineering equal to High Men, but while they can build cathedrals, their clergy are shamans rather than priests.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_1aacbbc9	comment	Dragon Age: The Darkspawn are twisted corruptions of the races of the world with poisonous, tainted blood who live underground in perpetual war with the Dwarves. They are normally fairly mindless Always Chaotic Evil but are capable of forging and using metal weapons and armor and intelligent enough to kidnap others to propagate their species. They are drawn by the call of Archdemons, constantly digging to find them and when they do, it leads them on an organized warpath to conquer the surface, known as a Blight. The Qunari fit into the Blizzard Orc archetype. They're large horned humanoids stereotyped as violent conquerors by humans, are technologically advanced compared to every other race in the setting, and have a distinctly alien culture.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_1db412d3	comment	Mistborn: The koloss are a twist on this. They're enormous, blue-skinned, violent creatures who constantly grow throughout their lives until they become massive twelve-foot-tall beasts and die of heart failure. Their skin is loose and flabby when they're young but begins to stretch and rip as they age and grow larger. They also attack one another over the the most trivial things. It turns out that they are humans altered by having four "spikes" pounded into their bodies, which contain the power of hemalurgy, the Blood Magic of the Omnicidal Maniac god Ruin, which drives them into violent frenzies. Interestingly, by the time of The Alloy of Law, set several hundred years after the Mistborn books and after Ruin was absorbed into Harmony, the koloss are less mindlessly violent, turning into a more Warcraft-style of orc with distinct cultures and tribal societies, and due to the influence of Harmony recreating the world, they have developed into their own distinct species capable of interbreeding with humans.

They're big humanoids with pig faces and hooves, and despite being at least intelligent enough to use simple weapons, clothing, and jewelry, they're treated like normal non-sapient monsters, with their meat being considered a delicacy and their hides being used as leather. This weirds out Mukohda at first, until he finds that their flesh is similar to very high-quality pork. Since they're hostile monsters, humans are going to have to kill them for safety either way, so not making use of their corpses would be a waste.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_3199e98a	comment	In A Practical Guide to Evil, orcs are a Proud Warrior Race, but it's hard to tell how much of that is biological. They do have millennia of interspecies hostility to blame for their fixation on conflict, but they're also obligate carnivores with a still-current tradition of eating the dead of their enemies. Recently they've gained more acceptance, and shown themselves quite capable of peace and discipline.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_38c57aa2	comment	Orcs in Eberron are somewhat "Blizzard orcs," but somewhat fulfill the role of elves in other settings (Eberron elves are a Proud Warrior Race). They have little actual conflict with the other races, are the best druids in the setting (despite a fullblooded orc getting a Wisdom penalty) and actually have a sort-of company that finds Dragonshards — crystals that are essential to create magic items. The shamanistic culture of the orcs of the Shadow Marches is responsible for keeping one type of Cosmic Horror from causing The End of the World as We Know It. However, there are also other orcish cultures — the Jhorash'tar orcs of the eastern mountains, separated from the Marches by hundreds of miles of land occupied by other cultures, don't have much in common with them and are closer to "Tolkien orcs" - although they're still generally portrayed as people whose long-running enmity with the dwarves of the Mror Holds is just an awkward result of two cultures in close proximity but without much in common, and not just generic enemies to stab for money.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_3f9dfc77	comment	The Parshendi who form the antagonists of The Way of Kings (2010) are of the Proud Warrior Race variety mixed with Blue-and-Orange Morality, with skin that is marbled red-and-white or red-and-black. They are ferocious warriors who are physically stronger than humans and grow natural armor, and are attuned to naturally-occurring music and rhythms native to the planet of Roshar. Much of the series' plot is kicked off by them having the king of Alethkar assassinated and admitting to the act and then fighting an extended defensive siege on the Shattered Plains for seven years against the massed armies of Alethkar. Though their initial portrayal shows them as a Tolkien-like orc — savage and merciless — as the books progress it is shown that they are a mixture of both the Blizzard and Tolkien takes. They are largely honorable and driven to protect themselves, and have the ability to change their bodies to different "forms." One of which, warform, is the typical orc-like shape, while other forms include intelligent scholar forms or stout and squat worker forms. They are also revealed in the third novel, Oathbringer to have been anti-villains, as the reason that they assassinated King Gavilar was that one of them learned that he was planning to bring back the Parshendi's "old gods" who had enslaved and controlled them in the past. Furthermore, they were manipulated by the god Odium into their position as part of his long-term plan to restart the Desolations.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_468bebb0	comment	Discworld: Orcs first appear in Unseen Academicals, where Pratchett wonderfully deconstructs the Tolkienesque, Always Chaotic Evil orc. To everyone on the Disc they're terrifying bogeymen from an ancient war, remembered as the typical Tolkienian orc. However, as it turns out, orcs were genetically (or, well, magically) engineered from humans as tactically-minded, nigh-immortal killing machines. They were then horribly abused by their Sauron-ish creator and given no option but to kill. The humans who won the war and wrote the history didn't know or didn't care about that, and set about exterminating them all. Mr. Nutt, the only orc in the story so far, is actually extremely hard-working, highly skilled, and has memorized basically an entire library, but is crippled by a need to "achieve worth" — because he's an orc, and, well, see Discworld's perception of them. He is able to become cultured, intelligent etc. because Children Are Innocent, no matter what species they are, and when Nutt was found as a seven-year-old chained to an anvil, Mightily Oats cut him free and sent him to Lady Margolotta for an education, instead of getting the terrible conditioning other orcs went through. Nutt may have grey skin, retractable claws and enough strength in his skinny body to shatter any chain that binds him, but damn if he doesn't talk posher than a wizard. Prior to the introduction of Orcs proper, the earlier, pure fantasy, novels in the Discworld series had gnolls to fill the necessary space for a humanoid chaotic-evil Other. These are described in a way very reminiscent of Orcs, both in look and manner. However, as the Central Continent is developed, explored and rebuilt by humans and the wildernesses shrink, the last of the gnolls, a defeated race, find their way to Ankh-Morpork in much the same way Reservation Indians emerged as North America ceased to be a wilderness. In the manner of debased and defeated native Americans, the gnolls now form a sub-group at the bottom of the social pyramid, doing the filthiest and dirtiest jobs which are disdained by humans and dwarfs and trolls.

The orcs shown in the webcomic are just a primitive tribe; and those of the paperback prequel are just mistaken for hostile by townsfolk because they are heavy metal fans. Several characters are also half-orcs. While technically all of them are bad guys, Thog is a Psychopathic Manchild who's mostly Obliviously Evil, Bozzok is a business-minded gangster who negotiates with the heroes, and Therkla is more of an Anti-Villain with a good dose of Villainous Valor. Therkla also subverts the trope of halfbreeds being born of rape: her orc mother and human father were happily married. There is a race of green-skinned goblins that are more civilized, if still stuck living at the edges of civilization. Unlike most recent portrayals of goblins, they are the same height as humans, making them much like Blizzard model orcs. The conflicts between the goblins and the humans drive much of the backstory of the current conflict and are integral to the goblin villain Redcloak's Start of Darkness.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_5a0daa35	comment	Iron Kingdoms: While the setting has no races actually called orcs, there are races that fit both the Tolkien and Blizzard models. Trollkin have many elements of Blizzard orcs, being large, physically powerful creatures with a sophisticated tribal culture, a shamanistic religion, and history of being screwed over by other, more advanced cultures. They're significantly more Scottish than most orcs (or trolls, for that matter), though. Ogrun, although their name suggests ogres, also are pretty much Blizzard orcs. They're a proud people, but have no real enmity with the other races of Immoren, although a corrupt and evil subrace called Black Ogrun are allied with The Necrocracy of Cryx — they effectively sit somewhere between the Tolkien and Blizzard models. In a particularly unusual twist, in contrast to the standard dwarf/orc enmity, ogrun often serve dwarves as loyal servants, as their feudalistic culture relies heavily on a distinct chain of hierarchy and dwarves make excellent masters in their eyes. The skorne, meanwhile, are heavily based on Tolkien orcs, with elements of the Easterlings. Appearance-wise, they have the upturned noses, and human-like build of Tolkien orcs, and their culture is abhorrent to the other peoples of Immoren: They make extensive use of slavery, Blood Magic and torture, to the point of having a dedicated torturer caste, and one of their models in HORDES is a baby elephant-like creature tortured into insanity so the skorne could weaponise its screams. They also take on the role of Hordes from the East. D&D players will probably identify the skorne more with hobgoblins, although their cultural basis in pain-fueled Blood Magic is very distinctly different.

They are belligerent by default — like all minor races — but can pacified and absorbed into an another empire. They are excellent archers and are hardy, being unaffected by the movement penalty caused by the brutal winters that are destroying the planet.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_5bd0554b	comment	Warcraft: The orcs were initially a brown-skinned, peaceful, hunter-gather society, but were manipulated by demons and turned into a ruthless army of green-skinned monsters. Further demonic influence turns them red, invoking Good Colors, Evil Colors. In the earliest games, orcs were portrayed as stupid and Laughably Evil in unit quotes and like, but they were still ruthless killing machines. By the events of Lord of the Clans and Warcraft III, the orcs have returned to their original ways and are now as intelligent and well-rounded as humans. Current lore portrays them as going from a primarily hunter gatherer society to a full on industrial war machine within a matter of decades, although they most likely had help from the goblins. By the time of World of Warcraft, they've become one of the Horde's most important member species. The first orcs descended from ogres, who in turn arose from a species of hulking cyclopean humanoids native to Draenor known as the ogron. The ogron further descend from a lineage of increasingly gigantic cyclopes leading back to Grond, a mountain given life by a Titan in Draenor's earliest days, making the orcs technically a species of very, very small giants. It should be noted that they share this trait with one other race: their erstwhile rivals — Humans. Another interesting caveat to the Warcraft orcs, is that they take to water very well. They are very competent sailors and maintain a vast fleet of warships. They even pulled off a Flaunting Your Fleets manoeuvre in the intro to II. They also avert Klingon Scientists Get No Respect in that a shaman who wields great magical power is respected just as equally as a powerful warrior.

The Marnakh family, on the other hand, have comepletely assimilated into human society and behaves like the culture they're part of.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_660a8ba0	comment	Orcs first appear in Unseen Academicals, where Pratchett wonderfully deconstructs the Tolkienesque, Always Chaotic Evil orc. To everyone on the Disc they're terrifying bogeymen from an ancient war, remembered as the typical Tolkienian orc. However, as it turns out, orcs were genetically (or, well, magically) engineered from humans as tactically-minded, nigh-immortal killing machines. They were then horribly abused by their Sauron-ish creator and given no option but to kill. The humans who won the war and wrote the history didn't know or didn't care about that, and set about exterminating them all. Mr. Nutt, the only orc in the story so far, is actually extremely hard-working, highly skilled, and has memorized basically an entire library, but is crippled by a need to "achieve worth" — because he's an orc, and, well, see Discworld's perception of them. He is able to become cultured, intelligent etc. because Children Are Innocent, no matter what species they are, and when Nutt was found as a seven-year-old chained to an anvil, Mightily Oats cut him free and sent him to Lady Margolotta for an education, instead of getting the terrible conditioning other orcs went through. Nutt may have grey skin, retractable claws and enough strength in his skinny body to shatter any chain that binds him, but damn if he doesn't talk posher than a wizard.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_6a8aff51	comment	In The Stormlight Archive, the Parshendi, also known as the "singers" among their own kind, are a complex twist on the orc trope, with their own complex society and differing motivations. The Parshendi who form the antagonists of The Way of Kings (2010) are of the Proud Warrior Race variety mixed with Blue-and-Orange Morality, with skin that is marbled red-and-white or red-and-black. They are ferocious warriors who are physically stronger than humans and grow natural armor, and are attuned to naturally-occurring music and rhythms native to the planet of Roshar. Much of the series' plot is kicked off by them having the king of Alethkar assassinated and admitting to the act and then fighting an extended defensive siege on the Shattered Plains for seven years against the massed armies of Alethkar. Though their initial portrayal shows them as a Tolkien-like orc — savage and merciless — as the books progress it is shown that they are a mixture of both the Blizzard and Tolkien takes. They are largely honorable and driven to protect themselves, and have the ability to change their bodies to different "forms." One of which, warform, is the typical orc-like shape, while other forms include intelligent scholar forms or stout and squat worker forms. They are also revealed in the third novel, Oathbringer to have been anti-villains, as the reason that they assassinated King Gavilar was that one of them learned that he was planning to bring back the Parshendi's "old gods" who had enslaved and controlled them in the past. Furthermore, they were manipulated by the god Odium into their position as part of his long-term plan to restart the Desolations. The Parshmen, meanwhile, are similar to the Parshendi, except that they are a Slave Race who have no real free will of their own and limited intelligence. It is later revealed that they are actually the same species as the Parshendi, but a terrible event happened that robbed most of them of their minds and free will, locking them into a slow-witted, subservient "dullform" state. At the end of the second book, the desperate Parshendi corrupt themselves using Voidspren and summon the Everstorm, a powerful storm fueled by Odium, which restores the minds to the Parshmen across the planet and effectively makes them all into Parshendi. These Parshmen rise up in rebellion against their former masters and act as the foot soldiers in the armies of Odium. There are also another group, known as the Fused. These are the souls of ancient Parsh singers who were fighting a Forever War against ancient humanity for control of Roshar. Thanks to Odium's power, their souls do not pass on into the afterlife when they die, but are preserved and are allowed to possess the bodies of living singers. They each possess some form of magical power, such as being able to change appearance, fly, or meld through stone. Unfortunately, the endless cycles of death and rebirth, along with being alive for over seven thousand years, has frayed their psyches to the point that many are some degree of insane.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_755b343f	comment	Halo: The Brutes are orcs in everything but name. They're big, bulky, and very strong, to the point where the Hunters are the only known contemporary species capable of physically overpowering them. They even resemble several different Earth beasts (mostly gorillas), complete with fur and tusks. As their name implies, they are very brutal, to the point where they commonly eat other sapient races (they openly discuss eating an Elite in one of the first cutscenes of Halo 2). In the bonus material, it's revealed that they managed to make their way into space only to nuke themselves into the stone age, and had just rediscovered radio and rocketry when the Covenant found them, without having learned anything from their past mistakes. In fact, they are the most directly violent of the races of the Covenant; the Elites have honor, the Prophets are power-hungry, the Grunts are enslaved, the Hunters and Drones are enigmatic, the Engineers are neutral, and the Jackals are Hired Guns, but the Brutes seem to just like killing people. All that said, a lot of Expanded Universe media have shown that they're not Always Chaotic Evil, with a number of individual Brutes even being somewhat sympathetic. Also, the weapon designs of the Brutes are orc-like. The rest of the Covenant use sleek and curvy guns of fantastical design that shoot plasma and other energy projectiles. The Brute weapons however, are angular, awkward-looking, and all shoot metal projectiles (except for their version of the plasma rifle, which is just the same, except painted red and a little more rapid-firing). Also, they have bayonets on all their guns (and even their hammers), except for the aforementioned plasma rifle which they hardly ever use. Their vehicles also differ from the standard Covenent designs, and follow their own angular and primitive design (in fact, one of them is repurposed farm equipment), and they have names like "Prowler" and "Chopper", compared to those of standard Covenant craft like "Ghost" and "Shadow". It should also be noted that due to the relative recency of their induction into the Covenant, the Brutes had a traditionally less restrictive attitude towards modifying technology than the other Covenant races, though most of that advantage has been lost thanks to the Great Schism forcing the other former Covenant species to quickly rediscover their old technological creativity. Still, between that and their status as primates, the Brutes are one of the more humanlike aliens in the Haloverse. The Grunts serve as orc-esque equivalents as well, particularly before the introduction of the Brutes. While the Brutes embody the savagery, strength and ferocity of orcs, the Grunts are reminiscent of lesser orcs and goblins. They make up the brunt of Covenant infantry as swarms of cannon fodder, are diminutive, slow-witted and cowardly, but tenacious in groups. Some can even be found sleeping at their posts if Master Chief sneaks into an area unseen.

Regardless of whether they're portrayed sympathetically or not, they're usually portrayed as more aggressive and warlike than other in-game factions (as they indeed are created to serve as Super Soldiers in Pre-War times) and are rarely very bright. They all start out as humans, becoming Super Mutants after being exposed to the Forced Evolutionary Virus, a mutagen that turns their skin green, massively increases their muscle mass, eliminates their secondary sexual characteristics, drops their IQ a notch or three (though some strains have a small but non-zero chance to instead increase intelligence) and, as an unintended side-effect, turns them sterile as mules. They come in two broad groupings, differentiated by what specific strain of mutagen was used to make them and by where that strain originated from: East Coast Super Mutants are almost always vicious Tolkien-esque monsters, while West Coast Super Mutants are more likely to be Blizzard style. The art book for Fallout 3 puts even more emphasis on the Tolkien part as well, as the "ogre" aspect as they are shown to make their own cobbled-together armor and guns, as well as forge melee weapons such as axes, swords, maces, and flails/meteor hammers.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_76e7de99	comment	For the most part, the Forgotten Realms has followed the usual D&D variety straight, but it has been played with over time. The Legend of Drizzt series eventually saw the founding of the Kingdom of Many-Arrows, a legitimately recognized orc kingdom founded by a Visionary Villain, Obould Many-Arrows. In 4th edition, the Many-Arrows kingdom had been enjoying a real peace with its formerly hostile neighbors for decades, implying orcs in at least that part of the world were finally climbing out of their Always Chaotic Evil niche... and then 5th edition came in and had Many-Arrows destroyed and orcs cast out again, with Salvatore's novels having traditionalist orcs denounce Many-Arrows' existence as an aberration in the natural order . Before Many-Arrows, there was Thesk, which wasn't a orc kingdom but as a result of a grand coalition involving a Zhentarim orcish mercenary army had a significant and mostly non-evil orcish minority from a while into 2E onward.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_7c8386f4	comment	Bright: Orcs live integrated with humans and other races in a modern-day Earth. Orcs are pretty normal people for all of their racial differences. They maintain some vestiges of being a Proud Warrior Race, with the idea of being "blooded" having a central role in their society. They have intelligence roughly on par with humans, though they're stereotyped as dumb. The main orc character, Jakoby, is frequently slow on the uptake, but much of this might just be a combination of "doesn't understand human verbal play" and "inexperienced cop who hesitates," and he's more thoughtful, serious and idealistic than his human partner. They are apparently larger, heavier, stronger and slower the humans on average, and Jakoby exhibits some extraordinary toughness. They are extremely clannish and generally discriminated against by other races, making them second-class citizens in the wider society — so no wonder they're big on their own clans/gangs.

They can't breed with humans in the standard setting (half-orcs arise spontaneously), and sometimes just spawn from the ground. Orcs can be green-skinned, big, pig-snouted, snake-eyed, bandy-legged, leather-faced or cinder-skinned, but only the orcs themselves care about the different varieties. They're also becoming steadily more united as the new Orc Lord rises to prominence.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_7fc78282	comment	The Lord of the Rings (and Tolkien's Legendarium in general) is, of course, the Trope Maker. Ironically, orcs are the least fleshed-out race in Tolkien's work, and he was generally conflicted about basic aspects of the species. Tolkien orcs have, of course, most of the "classic" characteristics of the trope: they are short, ugly, fanged, sallow-skinned, violent, and serve as mooks for the Big Bad. They have human-level intelligence, however, as well as a good knowledge of technology, and are said to be inventive with machines, "especially the ingenious devices for killing large numbers of people at once." The words "orc" and "goblin" were used intermittently, and they never really diverged until after Tolkien's death. Tolkien never officially settled on an origin for Orcs. In most versions, they are an Always Chaotic Evil corruption of elves and therefore cannot procreate themselves. However, Tolkien also stated in writings that there had to be Orc women. Other writings even imply that there were orcs who actually resisted Sauron. As a devout Catholic, Tolkien had moral issues with the idea of an Always Chaotic Evil species — some writings speculated that they might have been modified animals who needed powerful leaders, like Morgoth, Sauron, Saruman or the balrog, to organize and direct them. Tolkien's Orcs are also a very diverse lot, and numerous varieties were around during the War of the Ring, largely as a result of the various dark lords breeding them like livestock to suit their needs. To wit: Firstly, there are the tribes of the Misty Mountains, sometimes referred to as northern Orcs or "Northerners". (Fans sometimes call them goblins simply because that was the word Tolkien used more often in The Hobbit, where only Misty Mountain Orcs appear.) They're generally assumed to have descended from the survivors of Morgoth's First Age armies, who fled beneath the Misty Mountains following their lord's defeat. They're usually described as smaller than other kinds, possibly from having lived underground and on their own for so long, possibly from their ancestors not being as "refined" for war as later breeds. The Orcs of Mordor, also called Black Uruks or just Uruksnote Uruk just means "Orc" in the Black Speech, are the "main" breed of Orcs during the War of the Ring, large and strong and ferocious. Sauron bred them during the late Third Age from the remnants of Morgoth's armies, in order to obtain a superior fighting force. Saruman's Uruk-hai of Isengard are more-or-less explicitly created from crossbreeding Orcs and Men and created by Saruman as elite soldiers. They're larger than other Orc types, and more upright and humanoid — the other Orcs are usually described as hunched over and apelike. They do not fear the sun (most of Sauron's and Morgoth's creatures can't stand sunlight and do not travel by day) and are usually described as being better-organized and more dangerous foes than "common" Orcs. These characteristics, along with their Proud Warrior Race Guy attitude, foreshadows the "revisionist" portrayal, but ultimately they aren't shown as having any culture beyond fighting and serving their evil overlord, and their superior physical and mental attributes compared to common Orcs are more-or-less explicitly because of their human ancestry. There are also several lesser Orcs in Mordor and Isengard, usually referred to as "Snaga" (meaning "slave" in the Black Speech). These appear to be used for labor and garrison duty, and are sent out to war when numbers are needed. Finally, a specialized breed of small Orcs known as "snufflers" appear to be meant to act as trackers, possessing a highly developed nose and sense of smell. Only one snuffler is seen in the books, in the service of Mordor.

The player controlled orcs generally follow the Blizzard version closely, being Proud Warrior Race Guys and following a shamanistic culture based around their progenitor Pa'aagrio, god of fire. There are some aesthetic differences, mainly that they don't generally have horns or tusks or really big teeth, just hairstyles that look like horns. Their melee classes essentially fill the role of the big, muscular Scary Black Man, except with green skin. Their women are something else entirely. Only Dark Elf women are bustier. The orc Mooks you fight, which by the way the player orcs HATE, are nearly always Tolkienien in most ways, being mostly dumb, savage tribal guys who generally pillage their neighborhood.

They mostly resemble the humans they used to be, but adorned with a variety of tusks, claws, horns, odd skin colors, shaggy mane-like beards, and similar things — no two Jaegers look truly alike — and they become larger and more monstrous as they age; their oldest generals have grown into towering, ogre-like beings. They have a code that defines them to the point that there are "former" Jaegers. Their loyalty to the (Mad Scientist) Heterodynes and ludicrous strength tends to lead them to be Europa's bogeymen. They also have an interesting culture around (comedic) violence and hats, which are evidently a combination of status symbols and a sign of worthiness. Also, when we see a bar for (patched-up, too wounded to fight) Jaegers at one point in the story, it's a pretty typical rowdy establishment... until the nightly bar fight starts, at which point everything becomes a massive Improvised Weapon brawl.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Within the TES universe, the Orcs are another race of Mer (Elves), known as the "Orsimer" or "Pariah Elves/Folk," and to say that they have undergone Characterization Marches On is an understatement. As with most of the races of Mer, their split with the Mer Precursor "Aldmer" was over religious differences, though in the case of the Orcs, it was not voluntary. They were originally the worshipers of the Aldmeri spirit Trinimac, but Trinimac was "eaten" by the Daedric Prince Boethia and later excreted. Trinimac's remains became the Daedric Prince Malacath, while his Aldmeri followers, who continued to worship him as their central diety, were transformed into the Orcs. The Orcs possess strong, muscular builds and green skin. They are known for their ferocity and courage in battle, as well as their skill as armorers and smiths (especially with the rare metal Orichalcum), making them some of the finest heavy infantry on all of Nirn. They are a Proud Warrior Race who believes that Asskicking Leads to Leadership, which leads to their chieftains gaining that position via Klingon Promotion. They exhibit a number of other Blood Knight and Death Seeker traits as well, having a Martyrdom Culture. They've long been victims of Fantastic Racism due to their bestial appearance and perceived barbaric culture, and have been Fighting for a Homeland (or fighting to keep their homeland) for ages. Details per game: In Arena, the Orcs are an Always Chaotic Evil enemy race. Essentially, flat out Tolkein Orcs. In Daggerfall, the Orcs begin to receive some greater characterization. In fact, they are Blizzard Orcs before Blizzard invented Blizzard Orcs. One of the game's possible endings is to hand over the MacGuffin to the Orcish leader, which allows him to establish the first Orcish state in Tamriel. In Morrowind, the Orcs are Promoted to Playable. Rather than just being dumb/barbaric, it is shown that the Orcs have been severely marginalized for ages. Emperor Uriel Septim VII began to use the Orcs as elite heavy infantry in the Imperial Legions, which gained them greater acceptance throughout the Empire. Oblivion features a lampshade when you talk to one of the Orcs at Malacath's Daedric shrines. He says something like: "People think we're evil. Do I look evil?" There is also Dark Brotherhood member, Gogron Gro-Bolmog, who takes an unsubtle approach to his contracts but "has his heart in the right place". By Skyrim, the Orcs have been driven back into a diaspora in the years since the end of the Septim dynasty. They now have tribal strongholds dotting Tamriel, worship Malacath and raid as bandits, although many are still Imperialized as smiths or soldiers for the Empire. (One Orc even implies that this is the norm for those that leave their stronghold.) There are couple others that stand out, like several Orc bardsnote A quest for the Dark Brotherhood involves killing an Orcish bard because of his terrible singing, though this doesn't seem to apply to all Orcish bards. and even one of the faculty at the College in Winterhold known for its strong, but small population of mages. He's the archivist/librarian, to boot, and gladly threatens to sic Atronachs on you if you mistreat his books, but still. Falmer in Skyrim stand in for Tolkienian Orcs, or more specifically Moria Goblins, both in appearance and in backstory (they used to be a race of Mer called "Snow Elves", but were enslaved and blinded by the Dwemer). With one (technically two) exception. They also overlap significantly with The Morlocks.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_a825da3e	comment	Magic: The Gathering: Orcs had a presence in early sets, before growing out of focus due to goblins taking over the niche of small Red-aligned creatures, leaving little need to maintain orcs as a separate creature type. They made a reappearance in the Khans of Tarkir expansion after being absent for about fifteen years. While early orcs were exclusively aligned with Red mana (the color of impulsivity, emotion, chaos and ferocity), modern orcs are split fairly evenly between Red and Black (the color of self-interest, ambition and amorality). Early orcs don't fit the Tolkiensian archetype or the Warcraft archetype very well. Rather, they are sort of "goblins, but bigger (and somehow even dumber)". Their primary distinguishing characteristics are their supreme cowardice and complete incompetence; early orc cards were printed with abilities that made it difficult or impossible to force them into any combat that would kill the orc, while others had ridiculous drawbacks for minor effects that made them a bigger liability to their controller than the opponent outside of overly complicated combos. The orcs of Dominaria were mainly found in the isolated island continent of Sarpadia, where they lived in tunnels within the continent's mountains alongside the local goblins. They warred extensively against Sarpadia's dwarven, elven and human nations — especially the humans — and alongside the thallids (fungi farmed by the elves as food sources that ended up developing sapience) and the thrulls (creatures bred as living sacrifices and meat shields by human necromancers) ended up destroying Sarpadia's nations. However, after the humans, dwarves and elves were gone, the thrulls' deep-seated paranoia led to them attacking the orcs and goblins once the other threats were gone, eventually wiping them out as well. Other orcish populations survived on other continents, such as the Ironclaw orcs of Aerona, but they're not particularly common or prominent. Physically, they chiefly resemble burly humans with green skin and pointed ears. Orcs on Tarkir are much closer to Blizzard's orcs, and tend to be portrayed as proud, aggressive brawlers and warriors. They tend to have heavy frames, greyish-tan skin, triangular ears and flattened, almost absent noses. They are often found as warriors in the Mardu hordes and the Abzan houses. In the reforged timeline they are found almost exclusively among the followers of the dragon Kolaghan, and like the rest of Kolaghan's clan are ferocious, warlike barbarians and often cannibalistic. Ixalan's orcs, found in the Brazen Coalition, are Blood Knights who have been known to raid their own ships if they go too long without plunder. They have much more human-like proportions than the orcs of Tarkir. The Orcs of Arcavios appear to take the Revisionist approach to its logical extreme. While an aggressive orcish empire existed in the setting's distant past, the orcish students and staff of modern Strixhaven are valued and respected for their passion and imagination. Indeed, one of the set's main heroes is an orc who comes from a long and renowned line of elemental-conjuring performance artists. Orggs are a rare creature type created from the crossbreeding of orcs and ogres. They're characterized by their large and pointed ears, four arms and incredible stupidity.

However, it turns out that they were only acting that way due to the influence of their leader Geld's "Starved" skill (which allows them to absorb the power of anyone they eat at the cost of feeling perpetual hunger), which Geld himself only accepted to learn because his nation was suffering from a severe famine. Once Geld is defeated, the orcs turn into a rather peaceful people who regret what they did under the influence, and when Rimuru invites them into his nation of monsters, they happily put their physical strength to work doing manual labor like constructing roads and buildings rather than fighting, though their new leader (named Geld II after his father) proves he's more than capable of bringing the pain when called to war.

Normaly nomadic, they have begun building cities in recent years. Due to a coming choosing of a race that will govern a new age, they could overpower humans. They believe in Brazoragh, the god of males, power and war, and Tairach, the god of death and magic. Brazoragh killed his father Tairach, becoming the new godly chieftan. The orkish culture is just like that, constant fighting for the highest place. The only reason they have begun buidling cities, instead of killing themselves and everybody else, is their new leader, the Aikar Brazoragh (Chosen of Brazoragh): as strong as a giant (meaning amongst the strongest creatures on the planet), more magical power than three archmages and, being the sole chosen of a god, having more clerical power than all human high priests together. He had to beat every single chieftan though until his people accepted him as leader.

They also have Oddboyz, Orks born with the unconscious Genetic Memory and special powers that let them play specialized roles in the hordes — Mekboys have an instinctive knowledge of technology, Painboys are natural (if brutal) doctors, and Wierdboyz are powerful but unstable psychics. All Orks generate a gestalt psychic field that bolsters their morale in battle, can be channeled by Weirdboyz to dramatic effect, and even allows some of the Meks' stranger devices to function because the Orks expect them to. Orks are extremely durable and persistent, and able to survive things like partial dismemberment, most diseases, and having large chunks of their skulls shot off. Because they reproduce by shedding spores, especially upon death, Ork infestations are hard to eliminate once they have set foot on a planet. They're also technically the most raucous part of a complex invasive ecosystem — their spores first sprout into several varieties of mushrooms later creatures eat or cultivate for various purposes; then produce a variety of fungus/animal hybrids known as Squigs, which Orks use as Attack Animals, beasts of burden, livestock and pets; Grots emerge next, and establish the basic structure of Orkish society; Orks emerge last, once the rest of the ecosystem and necessary infrastructure has been worked out, and get started on the business of finding things to fight.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_bcb32dc6	comment	Shadowrun: Orks are one of the four main metahuman types that emerged from humanity during the Awakening. Much like trolls, they mostly arose when humans spontaneously transformed into new forms as magic surged back into the world. They tend to be more belligerent than and not quite as bright as humans, but not to the same degree as Tolkienian orcs; more to the degree of the redneck shit-kicker one might meet in their local bar. Being descended from humans, they show the full human range of pink-to-brown skin tones rather than the green skin typical of fantasy orcs. They do, however, retain D&D features such as tusks. Orks have developed their own culture and language which seems to draw many parallels with African-American and Hispanic "Gangsta" cultures. There are such things as non-orks embracing ork culture and becoming ork posers. Lacking the prettiness of the elves, the non-threatening appearance of the dwarves, or the sheer scariness of the trolls to keep people off their back, and the fact that they reproduce abundantly (twins and triplets amongst orks being the norm, not the exception) ensures that the orks get the worst of the Fantastic Racism, as they are often seen as threatening to take over Humanity's place due to their expanding numbers. They tend to get along with Trolls better than the other metatypes do, as the two find common cause in the discrimination both habitually face. Orks also tend to be one of the shortest-lived metatypes, with an average lifespan around 40 (for natural-born orks, that is; orks who Goblinized from baseline human have a longer lifespan). However, this is noted to be a combination of lifestyle factors (see the racism above) and orks' dependency on purer background mana; ork lifespan estimates are taken from orks in crowded, violent, polluted urban environments, whereas orks that live in more "pure" environments (e.g., the wildlands of Nigeria) tend to live much longer. As with the other metatypes, a number of distinctive variants have emerged from ork stock as a result of genetic variance and secondary awakening events. These are hobgoblins, wirier Middle Eastern orks distinguished by greenish skin and a strong sense of personal honor; ogres, shorter and heavily built European orks with reduced body hair; oni, magically adept Japanese orks with blue, red or orange skin; and satyrs, Mediterranean orks with slighter builds, furry legs, cloven hooves and goatlike horns

Our Orcs Are Different / int_bd8cd290	comment	Grunts! by Mary Gentle portrays orcs in a sort of middle ground between the two. The Orcs of Grunts! exhibit most of the characteristics of the classic "Tolkien" orc; carnivorously cannibalistic, porcine of face and nose and have a wide range of skin colors (from black to albino white, with shades of brown, green, and gray in between). They don't really have much interest in things outside of raiding and doing the bidding of the Nameless and the Dark Lord, until they come into contact with the cursed modern weapons, which upgrade them from pure evil mook status.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_bff01809	comment	Warhammer: The Orcs occupy a strange space between the Tolkien and Blizzard models, as they're warlike enough to serve as The Usual Adversaries but have more character than most orcs. Physically they are larger, stronger, and tougher than humans, with skin tones ranging from bright green to nearly black in the case of the brutally-disciplined Black Orcs. There are no female orcs; instead, the species reproduces by shedding spores. Their "kultur" revolves entirely around fighting, so much so that the army has the "Animosity" special rule, meaning that most Greenskin units have a chance to ignore orders and squabble amongst themselves while the boss cracks some heads to impose order, shoot at a rival making funny faces at them, or break formation and charge the enemy with an almighty "WAAAGH!" Their Shamans worship Gork and Mork, one of whom is "cunningly brutal" (he hits you when you aren't looking) and the other "brutally cunning" (he hits you really hard even if you are looking). They're also cannibalistic, and will gladly eat both their enemies and weaker members of their own kind. Orcs make poor minions, but a Greenskin army can be made up of a mixture of Orcs and Goblins, as well as Trolls and Giants. Finally, they have thick Cockney accents written phonetically in flavor text. There are also a number of distinct kinds of Orcs in-universe: Savage Orcs live primarily in the depths of the Badlands and in the Southlands. They are primitive even by the standards of other Orcs, and only craft and use weapons made from bone, stone and wood. They are also extremely superstitious and have the largest number of shamans of any Orc kind, and wear no armor — they instead rely on magical warpaint for protection. Black Orcs were created by the Chaos Dwarfs are slave soldiers, but rebelled and broke free. They are larger, stronger, more intelligent and more disciplined than other Orcs — while most Orcs make do with patchwork armor and ramshackle weapons, fight in disorganized mobs, have a very limited grasp of tactics or self-control, and fight constantly among each other, Black Orcs are clad head to toe in thick plate, use high-quality and scrupulously maintained weaponry, fight in organized and well-drilled ranks, and are extremely disciplined in battle. Luckily for other peoples, Black Orcs are too few to form their own tribes and instead tend to be the leaders or elites of tribes of other Orcs. They have no shamans of any kind among their ranks. Old editions include Half-Orcs, which rather than being actual crossbreeds are the result of humans growing more orc-like and Orcs more human-like until a sort of in-between point is reached, something speculated to be due to evil magic blending the traits of the two races in the distant past. There is also mention that Orcs and Goblins have interbred in the past to create multiple Orc variants, including the "Pig-Faced Orcs" that were numerous in the past but have since declinednote a reference to how older editions of Dungeons & Dragons depict orcs with porcine heads, but newer ones drop this trait. The Beastmen are arguably closer to Tolkien Orcs than the actual Orcs of the franchise. They're an Always Chaotic Evil race of mutants born from humans corrupted by the dark magic of Chaos, usually brown or red skinned and physically identifiable by their animal-like traits like hooved feet, horns, and fangs; size is variable, but averages around "broad human." They are omnivores but particularly prefer human flesh, and organize in simple, primitive, hyper-violent societies with a great deal of intraspecies Fantastic Racism, with the larger and more mutated Beastmen treating the weaker ones as slaves. Their "culture" is entirely based around the Black Magic of the shamans, raiding, and reverence for the Chaos Gods, and while they can reproduce among themselves they also depend on infecting (or raping) human women to replenish their numbers. They are incapable of building true civilization and actively detest any kind of technology beyond the bare minimum of needed to equip their Iron Age war bands. Functionally they're total Cannon Fodder for the hordes of Chaos, and considered inferior to humans in every relevant way, even by the gods they worship, but their sheer numbers make them threatening to the protagonists regardless. Also in keeping with the Tolkien inspiration, the Wood Elves consider them their Arch-Enemy.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_c19c6efa	comment	In the 1.16 Nether Update Minecraft introduced the Piglin, which the closest vanilla Minecraft has to Orcs. They are a race of pig beings that live in the hostile dimension. Being barbaric and belligerent, they will attack you on sight, making it an interesting case where the zombie variant is actually less hostile. Thankfully, they have a massive fondness for gold, and wearing any gold armor will make them neutral towards you — as long as you don't open any chests or mine gold around them. Once neutral, the player can barter items with them by tossing gold ingots in their direction, which they will pick up and toss back various items. Piglin Brutes go a bit further. They are guards of old Bastions and very dedicated to the job: Brutes are always hostile, significantly more aggressive, can't be distracted mid-combat by barter attempts like their lesser kin, and are totally unafraid of things that scare a normal Piglin (soul fire objects and zombified Piglins). Zombie Piglins actually subvert this, being more docile and neutral to the player... unless you hurt one of them. Then, every zombie piglin will rush in to fight you, and they won't forget you even if you leave the area. They'll only forget if you die and respawn.

According to a guide that was only ever released in Japan, martial ability is so prized that orcish mages hide their faces in shame. Like Tolkien's original orcs, they have good technological ability. Physically, XI's Orcs are green skinned Lizard Folk. Final Fantasy XIV replaces the previous MMO's orcs with the Amalj'aa. Most Amalj'aa are Tolkienesque, in that they are constantly raiding civilized settlements and merchant caravans in service to their deity, the primal Ifrit. As the story progresses, though, the Warrior of Light can ally with the Brotherhood of Ash, a tribe of Amalj'aa who adhere much more to the Blizzard model, being Proud Warrior Race Guys who oppose the worshippers of Ifrit because their culture dictates that honor is found in battle against strong warriors, not by victimizing the weak.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_d5e733b0	comment	Pathfinder: Orcs seem to look more like the Blizzard variety. However, they acted (the past-tense is important) like the Tolkien variety would be to vastly underestimate their previous sheer batshittery. They're also terrifying adversaries for ordinary warriors and weaker adventurers, because they don't go down until you've done enough damage to kill them. Recent Character Development has made them much more Revisionist. They have varying appearances, with different bloodlines with more or less human blood. Because of this, they vary between Beast Man and Green-Skinned Space Babe, depending on the individual. Even the sourcebooks on them and their homeland of Belkzen pretty much portray them as irredeemable savages. They served Tar-Baphon, the setting's main Evil Overlord, and filled the ranks of his living armies the first and second time he tried to conquer the world. During his third rise during the cross from 1st to 2nd edition, though, the orcs refused to rally to his banner again and remained an independent force, and now find themselves in the delicate position of being stuck between several human factions that hate them for having spent millennia raiding their lands and Tar-Baphon himself. Half-orcs don't look quite as monstrous and do not have penalties to their Intelligence or Charisma. Hobgoblins, as in 3E canon, are the Lawful Evil Proud Soldier Race to the orcs being a Chaotic Evil Proud Warrior Race. They were an attempt to engineer a Living Weapon against the elves from goblin base stock, though. As a result, elves and hobgoblins profoundly hate each other even in the modern day. As of 2023, they are much more Revisionist. The Orcs have rebelled against Tar-Barphon. Pathfinder Second Edition does not penalize any of their stats and gives them the same variable bonus that humans have. They tend toward Chaotic alignments, but not Evil. As of the Remaster, they're a Core playable ancestry and Alignment has been removed from the game. Their beliefs aren't evil; they believe in seeking strength, sharing what you learned through painful lessons, and destroying the undead while refusing weak leaders or degrading creatures by making them weaker. Additionally, orc society is currently depicted as in transition, with the orcs themselves realizing they're at a crossroads as the need to defend the Hold of Belkzen and their own past are forcing a transition in their society and relationship with their neighbors.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_de225c0a	comment	Mutant Football League has "Monster Orcs" among the player races, fat green-skinned creatures that vary greatly in size. Fluff states they're tough to coach and each generation of orcs is less intelligent than the last, "like a VHS copy of a VHS copy of a VHS copy." In Dynasty Mode, it's extremely expensive in both XP and cash to increase their Intelligence stat, which determines reaction time, field awareness, and self-preservation instinct. On the field they're typically slow but strong and sturdy, and are thus mostly linemen on either side of the ball, but a handful are nasty linebackers, bruising receivers or tough running backs.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_deaae920	comment	In Dungeon Crawl, no official description of orcs is given beyond "[they] combine the worst features of humans, pigs, and several other creatures." Cave orcs (mooks) err towards the Tolkien model; they're Always Chaotic Evil, worship the proud but ruthless (and canonically evil) god Beogh (who refuses to accept non-orc worshipers). Hill orcs (playable) are a bit more Blizzard-like; they can play as any class, though their priests follow Beogh instead of Zin. Those who do serve Beogh can attempt to become the Dark Messiah of the orcs.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_e199d649	comment	Inheritance Cycle: Urgals start out looking like Tolkien orcs, but it's revealed in the climax of book one that they were under mind control by the Shade Durza. In book 2, they prove to be more civilized and honorable than they originally seemed, and ally with the Varden against Gallbatorix. They do not have tusks, but have fur and horns, and also come in an oversized variety called Kull. They originated in the continent of Alalea, like the elves did, and followed them across the sea when the elves came to AlagaÃ«sia. In the modern day, they mostly live in the wildernesses of the Spine mountains.

The game plays up the brutal and vicious aspects of Orc society by giving orcs a 'hate' attribute. Orcs are more likely to be killed or maimed by another Orc than by their real enemies. Naturally, Orc campaigns mostly deal with power, treachery and deceit within a group of Orcs.

Seven feet or higher, prone to rages, living in a tribal society, used in the past as cannon fodder by Dark Wizards. They fit the Blizzard mold by being a proud, honorable warrior race, and the Tolkien pattern by having been "twisted" in the last (wizard) war from being so very peaceful and even tempered that they were named for it.

They're large, proud, purple-skinned Proud Warrior Race with appearances that range from shaggy and brutish to ruggedly attractive. On their homeworld, they were just one of many tribes, but rose to prominence on their planet and beyond through martial conquest. They also display an ability to breed with other speciesnote Keith, one of the heroes, is half-Galra on his mother's side. Likewise, Prince Lotor is half-Altean. that is either unique to them, or simply more prominently shown with them because of the vast scope of their empire. On the more noble side, the Blades of Marmora are a secretive faction of Galra who oppose the empire and assist the heroes. Even King Zarkon, ruler of the empire, was once a true hero before he was corrupted into a genocidal monster.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_f120845f	comment	The Orcs from Kingdom of Loathing are primarily Frat boys. They're a parody of frat boy stereotypes, but the stereotypes (being big, muscular, unpleasant and thuggish in personality, lack of culture aside from breaking other people's stuff) make them pretty close to the Tolkienian version. A second group of orcs called the smut orcs were introduced several years into the game. Their culture seems to be designed around building things out of materials with awful double-entendre names (e.g. "raging hardwood plank" and "thick black caulk").

Our Orcs Are Different / int_f1da64b5	comment	The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit have orcs as sharp-toothed humanoid monsters ranging from the very impish-looking goblins of the Misty Mountains to the hulking and brutish Uruk-hai of Isengard. Those that do speak do so in low-class British accents, with screechy or grating voices. Fitting with the pro-nature theme of the series, orcs are focused on ruthless industry, shown tearing down trees and building crude, jagged weapons of war in service of their dark masters. One abandoned film treatment turned orcs into avian-like creatures with wings and beaks, causing Tolkien to comment that "Orcs is not a form of Auks." . The script by John Boorman also had orcs with avian features, and threw in some reptilian ones for good measure. They also apparently spend time not fighting in a form of suspended animation, likely forced on them by Sauron. Notably, they are not serving Sauron of their own free will.

Our Orcs Are Different / int_fcf43f47	comment	Fighting Fantasy: Orcs generally adhere to the Tolkien model of orc, although they have a few notable differences. Fighting Fantasy orcs are known for being able to eat almost anything, including, wood, rocks, and metal, although they prefer fresh meat. They also stand out due to their violent team sports, such as a variation on volleyball where the players of the losing team are eaten by the winners, or a variation on rugby played with a live slave at the ball that has no restrictions on play, often turning into a bloodbath as a result. One notable exception is Daggers of Darkness (set in an area with a Mongol-like culture) in which Orcs appear to have near-human intelligence and mingle freely with humans; some are servants of the Big Bad, but there's also one illustration (opposite section # 346) which shows Orcs mixed in with the human warriors of one of the villages you visit.
