I'm making an low magic fantacy world, and i'm thinking about using orc's as a race. But i can't think of a good reason for orc's to be orc's. seeing that it is a low magic world if had in mind to give them a Mongolian theme. hit and run tactics and mounted combat ass wel as being nomadic.

What do you mean a reason for orcs to be orcs? As in, why or how they were created as a race? If so, then how were your other races created? A low magic world can have a plethora of races in it, I don't see how magic reflects the race choice specifically.

Just make them a remnant of some ancient primate species. Like Gigantopithicus.

The first orcs were born when shamans stuck their dicks in the lady's pooper instead of her cunt, producing deformed horrible babies. This happened often enough that it sired a brand new race. To this day, orcs reproduce through anal.

There used to be dwarves, but then humans moved in to mongolia and bred with them and ogres and the occasional lamia or two until the orc race was born and there are no more dwarves or ogres or humans in that region as a result.

Do what I do.
Different group of gods mold different races to worship and be their agents in the material plane.
Orc gods make orcs from pigs.
Catfolks gods make catfolks from cats.
Human gods make humans from monkeys.
Mer gods make merfolks from fishes.
Dwarf gods make dwarves from rodents.
No elves cause fuck them for giving leeway for assholes to behave like arrogant assholes in character.

An not so orignal source idea i had ad first: they Were a group of human that lost a civil war and were exiled to the desert where they found a Devil . they ask him to make them stronger so they can win their war. the devil ask them to proof them self to him. so they start slauthering each other unit only a small group is left. then the devil curses the group covert in the blood of their former allies and they transform in to Orc's
