Orc or Ork

Orks are a result of the Unexplained Genetic Expression during the year 2021, called Goblinization by the media. They were quickly dubbed "Orks" by the media. Which, almost one hundred years after the publication of the Lord of the Rings, it would be easier if it was "orc" with a "c", but some idiot senior editor at Time Online in 2021 apparently did not want to upset the Tolkien estate. Orks are the second most widespread race amongst the various human ethnic groups. There are orks of every color and genotype -- from White Europeans to the Chinese to the African Black populations.

Genetic Heritage
Most of humanity (except Sub-Saharan African Blacks) can claim Neanderthals in their genetic heritage. H. s. Robustus can certainly claim heritage with h, Neanderthalis; with the probable exception of the African Black Ork population. Nevertheless, all orks do have pronounced tusk-like canines on their lower jaw. Representing an Awakened metagene that codes for them.

Physical Characteristics
The first orks of the sixth World emerged during the Unexplained Genetic Expression in the year 2021 as either young humans changed to orks or ones born as orks from human parents. They are categorized as homo sapiens robustus, and are considered metahumans, like trolls, elves, and dwarfs. Orks are able to interbreed with humans and fellow metahumans. Despite this, their offspring will be of the race of only one of their parents. No half-breeds exist. They grow much faster than humans, reach maturity at the age of 12, and give birth to a litter of about four children, though six to eight are not uncommon. Their average life-expectancy is about 35 to 40 years.

Their physical frames are similar to bulkier humans. On average they are larger and stronger than humans. Their mental capacities are considered slightly inferior on average to humans, though they are still not as dull as the average troll. Distinguishing features include large lower canines that protrude from thier mouths. Orks have pointed ears that are smaller than those of elves.

Average size of an Ork is 1.9 meters (6'2") and 128 kilograms (282 pounds).

Average lifespan of an Ork is 35-45 years.

Ork gestations and pregnancy cycle

Many Orks speak the language of their home countries but there is increasing popularity for Or'zet. Or'zet is said to be an ancient language from the old world.
