The Orcs of Greyhawk
Over three Centuries ago Creativity in naming is on the rise, plenty of protein in their diet to produce healthy offspring, a bountiful time with a halfling in every cooking fire. None of that fatless elf meat that tastes better on the way up.
Two hundred years of actual Orc Kings... not Chiefs sitting in their own faeces... Kings though they dont have the letter I. Twenty-six of the smartest horrifyingly cunning Orcs you ever met in ambush.
Orc History
-166 CY The Logs of Snorl
K'ng Snorl whose intelligence came with a +1 bonus taught his army to swim, and in a raid on a Port seized fifty ships without a fight and sailed off. Out in the Ocean he lashed them together and created a floating Island that drifted with the currents. All that is remembered of the greatness of K'ng Snorl is the story of Snorl and his warriors who stole logs and lashed them together to make a big raft only to drift out to Sea.
-74 CY Burnt Umsh
The last of the Orc Kings, K'ng Umsh besieged the city of Greyhawk by lashing a wheatfield to their backs with Tar and thus camouflaged crawled fifty miles along the banks of the Nyr Dyv only to meet a bad end. Orcs still seek the crown melted to his skull, thought buried in the mud in sight of Greyhawk or mounted to some Necromancer's staff. Burnt Umsh is now a common term for cooked Orc-meat (something fed to dogs).
But now, Orcs are a shadow of themselves...
The Modern Orc
Not all the old alphabet is in use anymore when it comes to Orc names. The last seventy-five years have seen a significant contraction in Orc Culture.
