Green? Piglike? Stronger than Men or horribly deformed? Both? How about evil and monstrous or brutal yet cultured?

Green, thick and wearing bikinis. Please continue posting images.
In truth, i like my orcs to be like Skyrim Orcs. They have a warrior heritage but aren't bound to it, have a beastial visage amd are generally stronger then men.
Dead. Short of that? Dying.
I prefer my orcs to be monstrous and somewhat bestial instead of just being green people.
Dead. All gone, having been put to the sword by an earlier culture who were tired of their shit.
Not to fond of orcs Orks though man I love those guys
Hopping on the revival crowd and going with pig-faced orcs.
They're monsters. If you want something more human, you already have half-orcs and at least four demihuman races to choose from.
But who else will be your midtier cannon fodder?
Humans.
Dwarves.
Is this okay?
fucking cunts ruin everything, I feel for you Veeky Forums
I'm fond of bugbears and hobgoblins.
Ye
Or this?
green elf not orc
They've started to grow on me as well. Gives them character that you don't get from most modern orcs.
Only good orc is a dead orc
>aren't bound to it
You do know malacath will straight up curse you and deny you peaceful after life in his realm, literally elder scrolls version of hell since your little shitty soul is now free game unprotected in the big empty that is the void between daedric realms where you'll be hunted down in a technically eternal moment of sadness, woe, pain, misery, and all other negative shit that the psyche and soul can emit then a longer more painful eternity being digested or if you're lucky you spend that eternity constantly dodging and scared until you slowly and painful dissolve into the fabric if reality ultimately shoring up whatever cosmic place you drop, for not being "orcy enough". You're an orsimer so you are HIS mortal servant and property, you better act accordingly and according to his will or suffer the worst fate possible.
He also doesn't sit on his ass he will straight up give "divine" missions to entire tribes if he has to to hunt your ass down and wipe your sorry excuse for an orc off nirn just because you disgust him.
Best bet you could hope for is some other daedric prince will take you cause then aedra want nothing to do with you in which case your sick and twisted soul will be like a walking pain factory with your psyche trapped inside cause malacaths not there to repress that shit via vicinity or living in his realm which tends to make you a pariah even among the dead and chosen of whatever realm you managed to get a spot in.
Orcs in elderscrolls are fucked. Also they aren't actively stronger than men they are just forced to live a hardier life usually involving a physical body arms race against rivals to show worth while doing some sort of intense menial labor, usually in the form of mining since malacath likes you digging in the dirt.
Short of that they just have that naturally jacked look like tyrone does where as elved get that small but chiseled frame asian bros get.
It makes a decent half-orc at least.
90% sure that would only apply to orcs actually living in high rock. An orc that doesn't know fuck about malacath or ever think of him will go to some other afterlife similar to how a nord living a boring life in cyrodiil or something wouldn't go to sovngarde.
Are there other orc races?
Are there other depictions besides humanbrute with tusks or pig orcs?
...
I think next time I do orcs they'll be somewhat smaller than humans but proportionally stronger, probably a mix of greys and greens, and not especially like pigs but with some other savage features. They'd be more in the vaguely-neutral barbarian-type role, with the occasional tribe under the influence of some malicious spirit(s) or just unusually cruel and marauding.
That all depends on if you ever worshiped him in the first place. Not every Orc grows up in a stronghold, you know, and a lot serve as mercenaries or in the Legion. They aren't as shitty as you've made them out to be.
Tolkien's orcs were more like the common goblin depictions of today (goblin was just a synonym for orc in Middle Earth) but bow legged and not green.
Nah. Malacath straight up lays claim to all of orcish blood. Its part of his corruption deal after he ate the corpse of tinimac and in doing so gets corrupted which in turns corrupted his followers into orsimer or "pariah folk" aka orcs. He literally OWNS all orcs by virtue of being top orc and as a reality warping prick you can't topple him as he can just blink you out of existence when properly pissed off though there is hinted unwanted side effects hence why daedric princes don't often do this.
Sovngarde exist solely because nords believe in it as a thing and in doing so set the rules it was then cemented by nord saints ascending to demigod status and setting up shop. Entirely different rules and scenarios.
Malacath doesn't give a shit if your half blood either or born in a city as an 80th generation civilized orc. You. Are. His. And the only reason he hasn't had killed is you aren't worth it when you'll be dead in 80 years (possibly a literal blink of an eye due to nonstandard time rules in daedric realms) and you aren't causing problems.
End of the day your immortal souls happiness as an orc hinges on pleasing malacath by proving your stronger and better than other races through subjugation and war.
>MY orcs are trees!
Can I ask where you're getting this information from? The Imperial Library?
>Nah. Malacath straight up lays claim to all of orcish blood.
That doesn't mean he gets it. Daedra can't just take souls that aren't given to them. They aren't earthbones, they have no proper dominion over mundus. Malacath least of all, given how he's the second least powerful prince. The orcs were changed because they worshipped him when he changed, but their descendants are not bound to him, other than the ones that worship him still. Sort of like how Azura doesn't get every dunmer soul just because her influence turned them dark.
Green muscular Franzetta men with a tribal warrior culture, while their Cousins the Ogres are literally the same as Warhammer Orkz. The females are green thick tusked Muscle elves.
>not worshiping Azura
get a load of this n'wah
The ending of the words is Almsivi.
I'm just saying, it's unlikely that many dunmer during the tribunal era ended up in moonshadow
>How do you like your orcs Veeky Forums?
Hot.
Kill yourself
I like giving people the option to roll on a slightly modified variant of a tiefling mutation table. Makes orcs more monstrous.

no u
What's wrong with attractive orcs?
Green, deformed elves with cultural hangups.
I want society to fuck them over and prevent them from prosperity, not some ingrained biology.
>no visible impression even against a hanging loincloth
either he's tucking so deep and hard that he's cumming into his own colon like Longmint, or else he's got the tiniest green penis in history.
Why do you think he lifts so much?
Maybe he's wearing a jockstrap + cup equivalent under his loincloth? Wouldn't want his dick to be flopping around in battle!
Also keep posting attractive orcs of any gender that aren't just green elves.
Bara is shit and so are you
Maybe he's a grower not a shower?
Would you prefer shota instead? I don't think I have orc shota?
...
I don't have any either, though I do have more of which is straight shota (kinda) featuring an orc.
Malacath didn't eat trinimac's corpse, he IS trinimac's corpse. Boethiah ate trinimac and malacath is what got shat out.
...
Spaghetti Western-inspired.
...
> bara is shit
Are you saying you don't want to be hugged by a big beefy orc and get completely enveloped by the sheer mass of muscle and all around thickness? Are you a fag?
...
...
It wasn't that literal - Trinimac was an et'Ada (not an Aedra or a Daedra, mind) who somehow made his way into the elven pantheon as one of the heroes of Auri-El. Even then, he was a lot about vengeance.
When Boethiah revealed his lies, she probably revealed that he wasn't an Aedra, and Malacath made the decision to become a Daedra - his vengeance and anger grew so overwhelming that he couldn't 'stay on the fence' as being an et'Ada. Another story has him getting backstabbed by a few Daedric Princes, which wouldn't surprise me if it was true - it'd explain his relative weakness.
Pretty much how stated, although with more mongol influence.
...
...
...
Also, the females are tomboys instead of being green musclewomen.
Aren't Orcs in TES vaguely Japanese? That's close enough.
...
...
The issue is they have a direct blood link. He literally owns their souls. He can actively call them to his realm he can also speak to them anytime its entirely different. He even has a conversation back in morrowind about how he can pull souls from bodies straight up so long as their orc. Its not a matter of "i don't believe in you so fuck of malacath!" Its a matter of you are his from birth no exceptions. Whole lord of domination and enslavement, literally in his title.
...
True, But I would like to see orcs with a powerful empire that could easily rival western ones. Japan didn't get that until later in thier history.
>It wasn't that literal
Yes it was. Malacath says otherwise because anyone would.
>When Boethiah revealed his lies, she probably revealed that he wasn't an Aedra
You do realize that aedra and daedra are the same kind of beings right? What makes a daedra a daedra is whether or not they stuck around past the mythic era and made their own realms in oblivion near Mundus. The only functionally different group were the 8 divines, who gave up their "lives" to become the earthbones, but before that they too were the same kind of being.
>That all depends on if you ever worshiped him in the first place.
No it doesn't.
...
...
>How do you like your orcs Veeky Forums?
Raping, Pillaging, Enslaved, or Dead
This upsets me, and yet I like it. WHY
Green elf, you're out.
>The issue is they have a direct blood link. He literally owns their souls.
No, he doesn't. He claims he does, and raves about it, but ultimately he has no claim over any soul not given to him, just like any other daedric prince.
>He can actively call them to his realm he can also speak to them anytime its entirely different.
Nonsense.
>Whole lord of domination and enslavement, literally in his title.
That's molag bal. Malacath is vengeance and patronage of the ostracized.
Because it's badass.
...
Every fucking time I see this I try to read it right-to-left.
...
orc girls a cute
How tomboy are we talking here?
I've played the elf in this scenario, and he was a drow.
>the orc is actually female
There's a big difference for the Altmer, who consider the Aedra to be their ancestors.
s-source.
...
pretty cool desu
...
Which god or goddess do your orcs worship?
...
...
...
...
...
...
Animistic nature spirits, venerated ancestors, the occasional demon. Pretty much any spiritual entity that seems willing to act as patron, really, or that seems scary enough to be worth debasing yourself to ward off. Pretty much the usual for anyone.
If you're not going to make your Orcs act like Orcs, you might as well make up an entirely new race, instead of wasting everyone's time.
Unjustly maligned noble savages?
I could say the same thing about dwarves, but that only makes them boring as shit.
Unjustly maligned... nubile savages.
