What are orcs views on sharing mates? Like a man decides he wants to have sex with a woman who is mated to another man? -- Dein0clies (talk) 12:22, 6 May 2020 (EDT)

To orcs women are considered valuable property. In this way sharing is different from individual to individual. Some people in OUR society are willing to let others drive their cars, some are not. This is basically the same sentiment with orcs and their women. --Elerneron (talk) 02:16, 7 May 2020 (CEST)

What crimes are likely to get an orc banished? And are they different for the different genders? -- Dein0clies (talk) 12:59, 20 May 2020 (EDT)


Orcs don't banish females. In orc society that would be like throwing away a perfectly good computer or car or the like. Orcish crimes vary by tribe, but generally deal with military related infractions. Dereliction of Duty, Failure to Obey Orders, Cowardice in the Face of Combat, Theft . . . each of these is likely to get punishment in any orc tribe. Some tribes would execute while others might flog, imprison, enslave or banish. Different tribes are likely to have different punishments. It's all really based on the chief of the tribe and what he feels is a fitting punishment. Orc chiefs are often concerned about not showing weakness; so you often see harsher punishments than are warranted as orcs generally see mercy as a sign of weakness. --Elerneron (talk) 19:51, 20 May 2020 (CEST)

How do orcish tattoos work? How is a tattoo showing one’s rank so easily replaced? -- Dein0clies (talk) 6:24, 27 May 2020 (EDT)

You never replace a tattoo. One adds to the tattoo when one gets new rank. Loss of rank is also denoted with separate tattoos. Regaining rank once lost is quite difficult, but there is a tattoo for that. Orcs don't loose rank twice . . . that would be a different tattoo that would make them as unworthy for the rest of their lives. --Elerneron (talk) 13:02, 27 May 2020 (CEST)
