Orcs can talk, move or even kill??. This is actually interesting. I have played so many RPGS and everytime I played I remember orcs were idiots who has blades because orcs are so dumb even normally they can not walk if you do not order them to do so. I found really funny when I saw in the movie. It was just hilarious that they are able to decide and make their own moves and fighting stuff. What do you think about it??

I meant the real fantasy world. Orcs are defined as dumb in mind so they can not even move unless you order. Have you played a fantasy while you are at your desk. People made a group and there is also a die to toss to introduce how many damage you are hit or you hit. There is generally a book about the fantasy world. If you play it, you will see it

Lol, before tolkein, Elves were short and the plural was spelt with an f, lol. But The first time I even herd of an orc, was tolkeins, so I got quite a shock when I got this drawing book and had all these orcs with great big guts and clubs. They made them look like trolls!

Since it was Mr. Tolkien who invented Orcs, should it not be he who decides how inteligent they should be?

Were there any examples of any books about creatures specifically called "orcs" written before 1954 A.D.?

He didn't invent orcs, they were in all the old fairy tales along with trolls and ogres.

Lol, Haldir... don't you hate it when you can't get your point across? lol.
And i read lots of fantasy, as well as other stuff...
But back on topic, lol
I wouldn't exactly call orcs intelligent, they can move and talk and kill, but they slaughter each other over a shin shirt. That's not what I call intellgient, lol. _________________
