Derogatory terms for Orcs

[Romnipotent]

I call them Gnomes... pisses them off to no end

 

[Dark Jezter]

If I wanted to insult an orc, I'd call him "Elf."

 

[The Thayan Menace]

Old School Orcish Insults

"Piglet"

What can I say? I have a fondness for the classics ....

 

[TheAuldGrump]

Grunt or Grunter in my homebrew campaign. (Where for the most part they are the victims of an invasion by the 'civilized' humans and dwarfs. Think 'Aboriginal Native' rather than ' Bloodthirsty Monster'.)

Racism is alive and well in that world.

The Auld Grump

 

[Renton]

let's not call them anything, let's just ignore them.

 

[wingsandsword]

"Greenskin" is one I've heard used that hasn't been listed so far.

 

[Wormwood]

About 15 years ago, my group had a name for orcs that was so wonderfully offensive that I fear using it in polite company.

Consider yourself fairly warned.

Piggers

 

[Orius]

The only terms I really remember players in my campaign use is "gobbo" for the goblins. As a DM, I'd have the bad guys call PC dwarves "stumpies".

 

[Faraer]

In the Realms:

Orcs: the Mighty (orcs, of themselves), Slaugh (= “pigs” among some elves; this term literally translates as “mud-wallowing-dogs,” and is beginning to be heard in use by half-elves, dryads, and some other forest-dwelling folk).

i just call them WEAK and they all seem to get mad at me
