Characteristics edit
Orcs are boarish beastmen, rather than green-skinned humanoids commonly seen in fantasy literature, movies, and video games that originated from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings series of books. The common folk of the orcish tribe, they have pelts of thick brown fur, dress in simple green clothing, and carry crude spears as weapons; in their original appearances the orcs actually lacked their signature spears, choosing to fight barehanded, but eventually gained them in remake versions of II.
