Orcs are a race from J. R. R. Tolkien's novels set in Middle-Earth. Tolkien borrowed the word from Old English (attested in texts such as in Beowulf), though his orcs had little to do with the Anglo-Saxon orcs other than the name.
Origin: Italy Pig-headed demons that serve Orcus. These demi-humans of the Expanse are very close to humans. They think of nothing but their appetites and sexual desires. They often attack human settlements for food and women.
