Like a bear an orc woman has four nippels . They have no breasts but something looking like sow-udders , when they are pregnant. The udders get smaller when they the orc-woman has sucked their offsprings for three or five months . Then the youngs can drink blood and later they can eat some meat and vegetables and later they can eat bread and all what human can eat . The orc-woman take care of their offspring and give them nutrition such as cooked roots , worms , insects and other nutrition , grown-up orcs distain . This is because they have no weapons to hunt . The male orc leaders give the female orcs very less food and when they give 'em food , it's more of the kind they distain and it's nearly the same as they give to their slaves . Grow Of Orcs Orc grow very fast and reach their full size between 8-9 years . So generally one can say they grow twice that fast as human do . Orcs don't struggle their offspring and learn them also some things , but if they are old enough and have learnt enough to be good as servants - that's around the age of four - they treat them as rough as they do with the grown-ups of themselves . Orcs generally learn the language of the breed by their mothers and from the other orcs . Cultural habits of the Orcs They usually cook their foot in water or grill it on metall shields above the fire or they stick it on their speers or sworks and grill it over the fire . They don't care if the meat gets sooty . They also have the habit to make their swords , axes and knifes black by holding them over the fire , so that they get black from soot . They have the habit to eat their enemies and if they have time to dissect the dead enemy in the battle they do that . If they had no time , they'd do it afterwards . In times of shortage of food , they eat other orcs , also their children when necessary . The orcs live from raids and plunderings and hunting and products of slaves . They make slaves of humans and other races and let them produce grain , beets fruits,... and bread and other necessary things e.g. swords , alcohol , .... They generally use the grain,beets,fruits to feed pigs and more seldom cows ( the orcs prefer pork ) , their slaves , female orcs and their offspring . The sweet fruits , beets and grain is also needed for producing alcohol . They usually use the language of the West ( adûni ) to speak with their slaves and orcs of other breeds . Female orcs and their offspring don't speak that language . The male orcs learn adûni , which is in most cases the language of their slaves , from their slaves . If the Orcs are governed by an evil leader like Sauron , this one takes care for their support with food in a more or less sufficient way . Orc food Although they can eat other human food , vegetables and so on , they prefer meat , blood , liver , honey and eggs . They like a drink made of 50 % alcohol or higher %ed one and blood and liver . Whenever they can get honey they sweet this drink with as much honey so that it tastes much too sweet for a human . To them it doesn't taste that sweet because their tongue isn't that sensible . Orcs can drink six - eight times as much as humans can drink without dangering their health . If a human can drink a pint of wine , an orc can drink six pints or three liters . Thus they can degrade 0,6 - 0,8 %o per hour , where a human can just degrade 0,1 %o alcohol per hour . They used to drink at least one pint of these drink a day . They also used to eat liver, eggs and eyes raw . Religion of the Orcs The orcs originally had no religion . Later they were forced to worship their evil non-orc leaders by sacrifices e.g. Sauron , Morgoth , Saruman . Thus also their orc-leaders adopted that when they thought indepentendly . The orcs don't believe in a life after that , but they believe that they can get immortality or an eternal life . They have no moral and don't know what's sin . They believe that they can get an eternal live by deceiting and cruelty . The reason why they don't eat or kill orc children is , because they need servants , which aren't that clever as grown-up orcs and humans are . The orcs have also some kind of priests and predictors . These are in most cases humans , who support the evil leaders , or old orcs which are educated in the Black Speech and in some wisdom of the dark might . They also make healing potions and poison , which they sell to the other orcs . They general do the sacrifices , write reports about the loyality of the orc tribe and do the administrative work for the evil leaders . They also teach the orc leaders a bit reading so that they can read the id-number of an orc . They also write the id-number , administrate the id-numbers and take care that orcs who break the rules get executed. They also write and observe the instructions given by the orc - leaders . Things the Orcs use - helmets - armor - shields ( made of metal , wood , or partially of metal) - belts and other clothing - poison , healing potions - weapons ( see Weapons of the orcs ) - tanned stomachs and intestines for keeping liquids - bones ,stones , metalls for letting make weapons - kettles , pots , knives - boots Weapons of the Orcs - knife , mace , sword , axe ( unusal ) , rods and sticks ; iron rods & sticks - speers with barbs and without ; forks ; pickax ; mattocks - stones ; stones which are bound on ropes - knuckledusters ( brass knuckles) - iron chains - slings ( like the Ancient Jews had ) ; consisting of a leather belt , where the stone is put and which is then spinned till the stone circulates in the right speed and then one part of the belt is released ( also very unfrequently in use , because the orcs are unable to aim in any successful way ; hitting the aim is more or less coincidly ) - nets - torches ; burning things ; pots filled with burning pitch they are completly unable to use bows , as the elves too generally can be said that orcs are in many cases better in near fight or in fight man to man or orc to orc generally their swords , axes and knives are made of iron . But if there's too less avaiable let make their weapons of other metals or use bones or horns for making their speers . If there's really less iron or any other metal , they use maces and stone axes , stones and slings . Orcs have to pay for their weapons or have to find it on battle-fields or steal it from others . So if they can't buy a weapon the use maces or sticks and stones and cheaper weapons , such as speers , slings . If poison is avaiable they poison their speers . Their swords have grooves , which cause deeper and more dangerous injuries .( usually the priests make the poison ) Reproduction of Orcs Orcs like to struggle other creatures and so do they with the feminie part of their species . The greatest pleasure for them is to rape the femine part of their species , because it causes much pain to them , because they can feel no pleasure by heaving sex . Thus the only way of reproduction for the male orcs is to rape orc-women . The ejaculate of the orcs is white . Also do the male orcs feel no pleasure by having sex , except the sadistic fun . The Orcs can mix with other species like humans , hobbits and elves . The female orcs have no menstruation as human woman and ... The also have eggs as the female of the other species to have . The orc seed infects the skin of the uteru and like parasits the orc-offspring grows . The genetic material of the mother is taken from their uteru-skin-cells . This is the reason why the orcs can reproduce themselves even with other mammals like wolfes , dogs , pigs , ............., but only with the females of the species , because a mammal like womb is needed . There's just one exception . A female orc can't get pregnant from a beast or a human , hobbit , elve .... On such a bestialic breed are the riding-wolfes of the orcs based . The *whar* ??? . Normally orcs do not mix with beast , but sometimes some of them are forced to do that by evil mights or by some orc chiefs . The bestialic breed , many times isn't able to survive , because such products like pig or dog feets with an orc body are not seldom . Also not such combinations of having one dog hand and one dog feet and one orc feet and one orc hand and a dog skull . The bestialic breed is many times eaten ,when after they is born , when it is freakish and wasn't of the intended purpose . Organization of the Orcs The orcs are divided in breeds , different races , language groups , tribes .... Generally each tribe has his own language or dialect and has one main chief , which is called the tribe leader . This chiefs governs the other chiefs , which command a small group from ten up to forty orcs . Generally an orc tribe has 250 till 5000 male orcs . Any tribe which is smaller dies out or gets part of another tribe . Any tribe who is larger generally splits . There are many times fierce fights between them for getting leadership . Life span of an orc Male orcs generally don't get very old . 60 % of all male die before their 16 birthday in wars or internal fights for leadership . Only five percent of them get older than sixty years and these are mostly priests . 90 % of all female orcs get older than 150 years . They generally get fertile with eight or nine years and infertile with fourty five. They feel pleasure by having sex between the age of fourty and fourty eight , which causes homosexuality and the lust to rape between them . Then such thinks occur that orcs , female orcs and slaves are raped by groups of female orcs . They also like to rape dogs and canine during this age . During this age they produce a body liquid which causes pain to male orcs and other creatures who get in touch with it . However not to female orcs . The older they get they more they get unsensible for sadistic abuse . Their experience and wisdom gets more they older they get and this gives 'em prestige in the orc tribes . Although they are treated like slaves in their young times , they get respect and better food when they are old , because they are asked for advice by orc leaders . The old female orcs also keep the old tradition , lores and legends of the tribe . Nevertheless they are forced to work like slaves until they die . Female orcs have a much more developed language based on the old orc language of the tribe , but the reduced male language is completly integrated . The female orc languages contain much more elements of the ancient orc languages . The female orc language is also more irregular and has a very large vocabulary , which the male orc languages don't have . Only if there are male orcs , the male orc language is used . What about the slaves of the Orcs Nearly around one third of an orc - tribe are slaves and female orcs . Female orcs take care that the slaves can't escape . As a reward the slaves must to much harder work than the female orcs . Generally dead slaves are eaten by the orcs . Some tribes breed humans by forcing men to rape their woman . They also keep women as their slaves logically . Some tribes produce also a large quantity of human and elven hybrids . This practice was invented and supported by Sauron to produce better and more skilled orc - tribes . Elven hybrids are one of the best scouts of Saurons army and able to use bows , but they aren't that skillful as Elvens are . However , the likelihood that an Elve-woman will give birth to Orc-hybrids is very unlikely because it weakens her so much that she dies in one of three cases . Elve-orc-hybrids can only make pregnant other female orcs in one of a hundred cases . Mostly they can only reproduce themselves in other female elven-orc-hybrids , human or hobbit-orc-hybrids , dwarve - orc - hybrids and in women , hobbit-women and dwarve-women . Elvens aren't bread by the dark might or by orc-tribes , because they get too rebellic and more likely commit suicid . They also can seduce the orcs and female orcs so that they let them free or that they orcs become subservant to them . Also have orcs a natural fear from elves . They dislike to touch elvish things and hear elvish voices . Adûnic in the Orcish tribes Only the male orc speak adûnic to the slaves . The female orcs teach the slaves the language of the tribe as they teach it their offspring . The reason for this is that they slaves dislike to speak in the orc language and that the orcs have the notion to adopt thinks than to teach their own thing . When the orcs are speaking adûnic they are never fluent , but articulate slow and not quite correct . The most practice they get by speaking adûnic is when tribes mix or when they have contacts with other tribes . Maybe the use of adûnic got common , when the different orc tribes tried to communicate with each other and used words from their slaves. Maybe it was supported by tribes of human-orc-hybrids , which can spoke some sort of perverted adûnic( Westron) mixed with some dozend orcish and Black Speech words . Maybe it was generally supported by human-orc-hybrids in the different breeds . Ethnic cleanity in Orc tribes All orc tribes tend to mix with other orc tribes . This is because in fights between the different orc tribes , there are many times a lot of renegades , which get integrated in the tribe . The enmixing of tribes causes also a language or dialect change . Æion bonan ! Cxion bonan !
