I want to talk about my Orc.

Post » Wed Jul 07, 2010 5:50 am

What was your rank and role in the military?

General, I constructed battle plans and let troops on the front lines.

What would you do for a Sweetroll?

Nothing special... they are easy to come by.

You are in the arena, what are your feelings towards eventually killing the Grey Prince (one of your own brethren)?

To die in battle is an honorable death.

Have you ever considered starting a family?

No, some Khajiit said it was a bad idea. He knows much and told me some.

A car travelled at a uniform speed of 30km/h for 100 km. How long did it take for the car to reach?

To reach where?

Assume the car was driving from Morrowind to Summerset.

To reach where?


It is irrelevant where, to reach it's destination wherever it may be, let's assume Skingrad. Now, answer up.

Also;

What do you have to say on behalf of your Orc brethren that treat everyone else rudely?

What do you have to say on behalf of evil Orc brethren?

What do you do in your spare time to relax?

How old are you, exactly?

What was your childhood in Orsinium like?

Edit: I know these questions may sound random but I think they're pretty relevant and would get you thinking on various aspects of the character, forming a good overall conclusion of his personality.. :)

I actually have couple of questions that I believe the world is eager to know:

1) Mr. Orc, do you have a special message to the 33 chilean miners rescued this week? http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20101013/ts_nm/us_chile_miners

2) What is your opinion on stem cell research and its applications?

3) Rumour has it that the Noble Orc Lord Rugdumph gro-Shurgak is searching for a candidate for his 'belabored' daughter, but called you stupid. What are your thoughts?

I dont think they all do, different cultures have different ideas on whats polite and what isnt.

What do you have to say on behalf of evil Orc brethren?


What do you do in your spare time to relax?

I hunt wilderness creatures.

How old are you, exactly?

<_<

What was your childhood in Orsinium like?

The all Orsininium boy. I was the oldest of three and a natural leader, I excelled at band, grades, and athletics. I was raised in a noble and happy home.

Mr. Orc, do you have a special message to the 33 chilean miners rescued this week? http://news.yahoo.co...us_chile_miners

No I do not.

What is your opinion on stem cell research and its applications?

I think alchemy is wonderful and well worth researching. (get it? Stem-cell... plant stems... lol)

Rumour has it that the Noble Orc Lord Rugdumph gro-Shurgak is searching for a candidate for his 'belabored' daughter, but called you stupid. What are your thoughts?

I dont care. I like Nord and Bosmer women.

*sorry missing the reference I think*

Anyways I am not a kid, Im a man and I would probably intimidate them all with my War Hammer.


In the previous elder scrolls games there was an option at the beginning of the game that would allow you to answer a series of questions in order to determine what your character's class should be. This question (or at least a reference to it) has appeared in every TES game that I've played. It's somewhat famous for some reason. Even though that system wasn't used in Oblivion there is still a reference to it in skingrad. They even make a referance to it in Fallout 3.

What is the Orsinium penalty for idea stealing?

And my ussual ones:


If a rogue half demon an expert in h2h snuck into your house naked smelling of ale while you were sleeping unarmed and unarmoured, planting evidence you were a serial killer.
Then changed form, and summoned the guards claiming you kidnaped her how would you react?

If a Dunmer with a strange smile, an arogant air and the strange smell of daedric, necrophillic lettuce asked if you'd be interested in playing the lead part of the Argonian maid.. how much incentive would it take before you said yes?

If a Khajiit Ohmes raht, who cleared the racists from Leyawiin and set up a resturant with the argonian hunter Wee bana.
Invited you to dinner what gift would you bring?

:rofl:

I never got into the lore of Tolkien so shut up! But its nice to learn something every day.


I understand that my statement would make little sense to people who never read Tolkien or played the original fantasy roleplaying games from the 70's. Having grown up with that, I have a different perception of orcs than people who have learned about them from TES and Playstations and what not. I'm not saying one is wrong and one is right, I'm just saying it's a different experience in Oblivion, and I don't particularly like the way they portray orcs.

While I see nothing wrong with Bethesda implementing a different approach to orcs, I particularly also have difficulties accepting their concept of a more 'social' or human-friendliy. In my gameplays I always see orcs at the very least as non-friendly and often as enemies.

Mazorga the Orc is in general my personal choice as a 'gift' to the Night Mother (but rp-wise should be an imperial guard or noble, so i may choose to change that).

In my perception, the human and elven peoples would be more likely to react negatively against not only orcs, but khajiit and argonians as well, as ppl tend to treat the 'very different' as a threat.

I'd hit that.

Im not going to do that.

What is your opinion on necromancy?

Do you ever feel ill at ease from the inability to chop people in half with a hammer?

Water, wine or brandy?

Do you miss Orsinium?

If a female nord assassin tried to kill you in your sleep, but you woke up just before she struck the blow, how would you proceed?

Seconded.

What do you think a perfect orc nickname should be.

A: The Hulk.
B: The Bulk.
C: Tiny.
D: Other.

You're caught out by a Liche and two dread Zombies, the Liches skeleton champion disarms your weapon causing it to fall down some cracks..
Whats your tactical outlook and best way to deal with the situation.

While in town the baker gives you a sweetroll. Delighted, you take it into an alley to enjoy, only to be intercepted by a gang of three other kids your age. The leader demands the sweetroll, or else he and his friends will beat you and take it. What do you do?

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

Spit on it and give it to him? Then run around the building till the Town Guard stops them.

If it takes you three hours to travel from Bruma to Leyawiin, how long does it take to get from Bravil to Anvil?

I dont care one way or the other. I like magic and I like killing mages.

Do you ever feel ill at ease from the inability to chop people in half with a hammer?

Thats what Battle Axe is for.

Water, wine or brandy?

Beer, Ale, and Mead.

Do you miss Orsinium?

A little bit but I can always go back.

Id hit that.

Depends on the orc.

You're caught out by a Liche and two dread Zombies, the Liches skeleton champion disarms your weapon causing it to fall down some cracks..
Whats your tactical outlook and best way to deal with the situation.

I would absorb the liche's attacks as I am born under the ATronach. Then I would cast Turn undead on one zombie, summon my own creature and engage in balanced battle with the remaining zombie. Perhaps cast Alteration for good measure.
